Over Keniaanse shilling
De Keniaanse shilling is de nationale munteenheid in Kenia. De ISO 4217-code is KES. De Keniaanse shilling werd in 1966 ingevoerd, ter vervanging van de Oost-Afrikaanse shilling.
De Keniaanse shilling is een voor Afrikaanse begrippen stabiele munt, en wordt in instabielere buurlanden als een veilige investering beschouwd.
De volgende munten worden gebruikt: 50 cent, 1, 5, 10, 20 en 40 shilling.
Papiergeld bestaat als 50, 100, 200, 500 en 1000 shilling. WikipediaOver West-Afrikaanse CFA-frank
The West African CFA franc is the currency used by eight independent states in West Africa which make up the West African Economic and Monetary Union: Benin, Burkina Faso, Côte d'Ivoire, Guinea-Bissau, Mali, Niger, Senegal and Togo. These eight countries had a combined population of 105.7 million people in 2014, and a combined GDP of US$128.6 billion as of 2018.
The initialism CFA stands for Communauté financière africaine. The currency is issued by the Central Bank of West African States, located in Dakar, Senegal, for the members of the UEMOA. The franc is nominally subdivided into 100 centimes but no coins or banknotes denominated in centimes have ever been issued. The production of CFA franc notes has been carried out at Chamalières by the Bank of France since its creation in 1945.
The Central African CFA franc is of equal value to the West African CFA franc, and is in circulation in several central African states. They are both commonly referred to as the CFA franc.
In December 2019 it was announced that the West African CFA franc would be reformed, which will include renaming it the eco and reducing France's role in the currency. Wikipedia
