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 Hongkonški dolar
The Hong Kong dollar is the official currency of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. It is subdivided into 100 cents or 1000 mils. The Hong Kong Monetary Authority is the monetary authority of Hong Kong and the Hong Kong dollar.
Three commercial banks are licensed by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority to issue their own banknotes for general circulation in Hong Kong. These banks, HSBC, Bank of China, and Standard Chartered, issue their own designs of banknotes in denominations of HK$20, HK$50, HK$100, HK$150, HK$500, and HK$1000, with all designs being similar to one another in the same denomination of banknote. However, the HK$10 banknote and all coins are issued by the Government of Hong Kong.
As of April 2019, the Hong Kong dollar was the ninth-most traded currency in the world. Hong Kong uses a linked exchange rate system, trading since May 2005 in the range US$1:HK$7.75–7.85.
Apart from its use in Hong Kong, the Hong Kong dollar is also used in neighbouring Macau. It is pegged at 1 Hong Kong dollar to 1.03 Macanese patacas, and is generally accepted at par or MOP 1.00 for retail purchases. Wikipedia
