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.
About Swiss Franc
The Swiss Franc (CHF) is the official currency of Switzerland and Liechtenstein, and one of the most important safe-haven currencies in the world. The name "franc" derives from the Latin "Francorum Rex" (King of the Franks). Switzerland is not a European Union member and has maintained its own currency, which regularly appreciates during global financial uncertainty due to Switzerland's political neutrality, strong banking sector, and fiscal discipline. The Swiss National Bank (SNB) manages monetary policy.
