About Russian Ruble
The Russian Ruble (RUB) is one of the world's oldest currencies, with roots dating to the 13th century as a silver ingot used in medieval Kievan Rus. The Bank of Russia manages monetary policy with a floating exchange rate, adopted in 2014. Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the ruble experienced a sharp depreciation due to unprecedented international sanctions but subsequently recovered due to capital controls, mandatory export revenue conversion, and high energy prices.
About Zambian Kwacha
The Zambian Kwacha (ZMW), meaning "dawn" or "freedom" in Nyanja, was redenominated in January 2013 at a rate of 1,000 old kwacha (ZMK) to 1 new kwacha (ZMW), eliminating the large denominations that had accumulated from years of inflation. The Bank of Zambia manages monetary policy. Zambia is Africa's second largest copper producer and copper accounts for the bulk of its export revenues, making the kwacha highly sensitive to global copper prices. Zambia became the first African nation to default on its debt in the post-pandemic era in 2020, and completed a debt restructuring process in 2023.
