About Australian Dollar (A$)
The Australian Dollar (AUD, ISO 4217 code 036, symbol A$) is the official currency of the Commonwealth of Australia, issued by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA, est. 1960). Subdivided into 100 cents. Banknotes are made of polymer (Australia was the first country to introduce polymer notes nationwide, in 1988): A$5 (Queen Elizabeth II → King Charles III planned), A$10, A$20, A$50, A$100; coins: 5¢, 10¢, 20¢, 50¢, A$1, A$2 (1¢ and 2¢ coins withdrawn 1992). Also legal tender or de facto in Christmas Island, Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Norfolk Island, Tuvalu, Kiribati, Nauru, and the Australian Antarctic Territory. AUD is heavily correlated with commodity prices — Australia is a major exporter of iron ore (largest globally), coal, LNG, gold, copper, and wheat. The RBA targets 2-3% CPI inflation over the medium term per the 1996 Statement on the Conduct of Monetary Policy. AUD is the world's 5th-most-traded currency per BIS Triennial Survey 2022 (6.8% of global FX turnover).
About Hong Kong Dollar (HK$)
The Hong Kong Dollar (HKD, ISO 4217 code 344, symbol HK$) is the official currency of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China, issued by three commercial banks under license from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA, est. 1993): HSBC, Standard Chartered Hong Kong, and Bank of China (Hong Kong). Subdivided into 100 cents. Banknotes: HK$10 (HKMA-issued, polymer), HK$20, HK$50, HK$100, HK$500, HK$1000 (commercial-bank issued, each bank's series featuring distinct designs); coins: 10¢, 20¢, 50¢, HK$1, HK$2, HK$5, HK$10. HKD is pegged to USD under the Linked Exchange Rate System since October 17, 1983 — the convertibility band is HK$7.75-7.85 per USD with HKMA's strong-side and weak-side convertibility undertakings. This makes HKD effectively a USD proxy. HKD circulates alongside CNY in cross-border trade but capital flows are managed by mainland authorities. Hong Kong is the world's 4th-largest FX trading center per BIS Triennial Survey.
