About Kyrgyzstani Som
The Kyrgyzstani Som (KGS) has been the official currency of Kyrgyzstan since 1993, replacing the Soviet ruble following independence. The word "som" means "pure" in Kyrgyz and several other Turkic languages, historically referring to pure silver or gold. The National Bank of the Kyrgyz Republic manages monetary policy with a managed float regime. Kyrgyzstan is a Central Asian country with a landlocked mountain economy dependent on gold mining (the Kumtor mine is one of Central Asia's largest), remittances from workers in Russia and Kazakhstan, agriculture, and some manufacturing.
About Saudi Arabian Riyal
The Saudi Arabian Riyal (SAR) is the official currency of Saudi Arabia, the world's largest exporter of petroleum and home to ARAMCO - the world's most profitable company by revenue. The riyal has been pegged to the US Dollar at 3.75 SAR per USD since 1986, one of the most durable currency pegs in the world, supported by Saudi Arabia's vast oil revenues and the world's second largest foreign exchange reserves. The Saudi Central Bank (SAMA - Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority) manages the peg. The riyal is divided into 100 halalas.
