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Elizabeth II → King Charles III planned), A$10, A$20, A$50, A$100; coins: 5¢, 10¢, 20¢, 50¢, A$1, A$2 (1¢ and 2¢ coins withdrawn 1992).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).

The Real Plan ('Plano Real') of July 1, 1994 — designed by Finance Minister Fernando Henrique Cardoso under President Itamar Franco — replaced the cruzeiro real in a major monetary reform that ended Brazil's 1980s-90s hyperinflation (peak ~5,000% annual inflation in 1990). BCB officially adopted inflation targeting in June 1999 (currently 3.0% CPI ± 1.5% band per Resolução CMN). Brazil is South America's largest economy (~$2.1T GDP), the world's 9th-largest, and a member of BRICS. Major commodity exports include iron ore (#2 global producer after Australia), soybeans (#1 producer), beef, coffee, sugar, and orange juice.
