O Britanski funt
Funt šterling je uradna valuta Združenega kraljestva Velike Britanije in Severne Irske. Neuradno je pogosto imenovan kar funt.
Simbol za funt šterling je £. Oba simbola izhajata iz latinske besede libra, ki pomeni funt. Koda valute po standardu ISO 4217 je GBP, kar pomeni Great Britain Pound, torej britanski funt. Občasno zasledimo tudi kratico UKP, vendar je slednja nepravilna.
Funt šterling je poleg ameriškega dolarja, japonskega jena, evra in avstralskega dolarja ena izmed svetovnih valut, s katerimi se največ trguje.
V Združenem kraljestvu se zaradi razločevanja med denarno in utežno enoto, pa tudi med različnimi denarnimi enotami z enakim imenom, uporablja uradni izraz funt šterling ali samo šterling. V neuradnih položajih se uporablja tudi slengovski izraz quid [kvid].
Šterling je sprva pomenil srebrni peni za ¹⁄₂₄₀ funta. V današnjem času je funt nadomestil peni kot osnovno denarno enoto, saj je inflacija vztrajno spodkopavala njegovo vrednost. V začetku je srebrni peni imel malo manjšo kupno moč kot sodobni funt. WikipediaO Zahodnoafriški frank CFA
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
