About Mozambican Metical
The Mozambican Metical (MZN) was reintroduced in 2006 at a rate of 1,000 old meticals to 1 new metical following years of inflation after Mozambique's devastating civil war that ended in 1992. The Banco de Mocambique manages monetary policy. Mozambique is a rapidly developing East African country with significant natural resources - offshore natural gas fields discovered in the Rovuma Basin are among the world's largest, positioning Mozambique for major LNG exports. The country also exports prawns, coal, aluminium, and cashew nuts. The metical is divided into 100 centavos.
About US Dollar
The US Dollar (USD) is the world's primary reserve currency, used in approximately 88% of all foreign exchange transactions globally. Introduced in 1792 with the Coinage Act, the dollar became the cornerstone of the international monetary system under the 1944 Bretton Woods Agreement. Even after the gold standard was abandoned in 1971, the dollar maintained its dominant status - oil and most global commodities are priced in dollars, and major sovereign debt is primarily denominated in USD. The Federal Reserve System (Fed) manages US monetary policy.
