About Sri Lankan Rupee
The Sri Lankan Rupee (LKR) has been the official currency of Sri Lanka since 1872, with the Central Bank of Sri Lanka (CBSL) managing monetary policy since 1950. Sri Lanka experienced a severe economic crisis in 2022, running out of foreign exchange reserves, causing widespread fuel, medicine, and food shortages that led to political upheaval and the resignation of the president. An IMF bailout agreement in 2023 helped stabilise the situation. Sri Lanka's economy is based on tourism, garment exports, tea (a world-leading exporter), and remittances.
About Malawian Kwacha
The Malawian Kwacha (MWK) is the official currency of Malawi, one of the world's least developed countries and most densely populated nations in Sub-Saharan Africa. Introduced in 1971 to replace the Malawian pound, the name "kwacha" means "dawn" in the Chichewa language, reflecting the aspiration of a new beginning at independence. The Reserve Bank of Malawi manages monetary policy. Malawi's economy is overwhelmingly agricultural, with tobacco as the dominant export crop.
