About Swiss Franc (Fr)
The Swiss Franc (CHF, ISO 4217 code 756, symbol Fr or SFr) is the official currency of Switzerland and Liechtenstein, issued by the Swiss National Bank (SNB, est. 1907). Subdivided into 100 centimes (in French) / Rappen (in German) / centesimi (in Italian) / raps (in Romansh). Banknotes: 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 1000 CHF; coins: 5, 10, 20, 50 centimes, 1, 2, 5 CHF. CHF is regarded as a global 'safe-haven' currency due to Switzerland's political neutrality, strong Triple-A credit rating, low debt-to-GDP ratio (~17%, among the lowest in OECD), and gold-backed reserves (~22% of SNB foreign reserves were in gold as of 2024). Historically CHF was pegged to gold until 1999 and maintained a unilateral cap of 1.20 CHF/EUR from September 2011 to January 15, 2015 ('Swiss Franc Shock' when SNB unexpectedly abandoned the peg, causing a 30% intraday spike). SNB targets price stability (CPI inflation between 0 and 2% per Federal Act on the SNB).
About Ghanaian Cedi (₵)
The Ghanaian Cedi (GHS, ISO 4217 code 936, symbol ₵ or GH₵; the symbol resembles the C-cedille) is the official currency of the Republic of Ghana, issued by the Bank of Ghana (BoG, est. 1957). Subdivided into 100 pesewas (Gp). Banknotes: ₵1, ₵2, ₵5, ₵10, ₵20, ₵50, ₵100, ₵200 (the highest denomination; current series introduced 2007 and updated 2019 + 2023 features 'The Big Six' of Ghana's independence movement including Kwame Nkrumah, J.B. Danquah, Edward Akufo-Addo, Ebenezer Ako Adjei, Emmanuel Obetsebi-Lamptey, William Ofori Atta); coins: 1 Gp, 5 Gp, 10 Gp, 20 Gp, 50 Gp, ₵1, ₵2. Ghana redenominated its currency on July 1, 2007 (1 new cedi = 10,000 old cedis). Ghana is the world's #2 cocoa producer (after Côte d'Ivoire) and a major gold producer (~4 million ounces/year, Africa's largest). The cedi depreciated ~50% against USD in 2022 amid debt-distress and IMF Extended Credit Facility negotiations ($3 billion package agreed 2023). BoG targets 8% CPI inflation ± 2%.
