About Pakistani Rupee
The Pakistani Rupee (PKR) is the official currency of Pakistan, the world's fifth most populous country. At independence in 1947, Pakistan adopted the Indian rupee and later issued its own currency. The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) manages monetary policy. Pakistan's economy has faced recurring balance-of-payments crises, heavy dependence on IMF support programmes, high inflation, and external debt pressures - all of which have contributed to sustained depreciation of the rupee over decades.
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.
