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II โ†’ King Charles III planned), A$10, A$20, A$50, A$100; coins: 5ยข, 10ยข, 20ยข, 50ยข, A$1, A$2 (1ยข and 2ยข coins withdrawn 1992).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 โ€” 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 Indonesian Rupiah (Rp)

The Indonesian Rupiah (IDR, ISO 4217 code 360, symbol Rp) is the official currency of the Republic of Indonesia, issued by Bank Indonesia (BI, est. 1953). Subdivided into 100 sen (no longer in use).

The 1997-1998 Asian Financial Crisis devastated the rupiah โ€” IDR fell from ~Rp2,400 per USD to over Rp16,000 per USD at peak crisis, contributing to President Suharto's resignation May 1998. Indonesia removed three zeros from the rupiah in 1965 and has periodically discussed further redenomination ('Sanering') legislation. Indonesia is Southeast Asia's largest economy (~$1.4T GDP) and the world's 4th-most-populous country (~280 million). BI targets 2.5% ยฑ 1% CPI inflation per the Monetary Policy Framework Agreement.
