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 Singapore Dollar
The Singapore Dollar (SGD) is the official currency of Singapore and is interchangeable at par with the Brunei Dollar (BND) by a 1967 Currency Interchangeability Agreement. The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) manages monetary policy uniquely through the exchange rate - adjusting the Singapore Dollar against a basket of trading partner currencies - rather than through interest rates, because of Singapore's small open economy. Singapore is a global financial centre, the world's busiest container port, and one of the wealthiest nations by per capita income.
