About South African Rand
The South African Rand (ZAR) is the official currency of South Africa, taking its name from the Witwatersrand (White Waters Ridge), the major gold reef that underpins the Johannesburg metropolitan area and made South Africa the world's leading gold producer for much of the 20th century. Introduced in 1961 when South Africa became a republic, the rand replaced the South African pound. The South African Reserve Bank (SARB) manages monetary policy with a floating exchange rate.
About Kenyan Shilling
The Kenyan Shilling (KES) has been the official currency of Kenya since 1966, replacing the East African shilling used during the colonial period. The Central Bank of Kenya manages monetary policy. Kenya is the largest economy in East Africa and a regional hub for finance, telecommunications, and logistics. Major export earners include tea (Kenya is the world's largest exporter of black tea), coffee, flowers, horticulture, and tourism. The Kenyan shilling is divided into 100 cents.
