About Belarusian Ruble (Br)
The Belarusian Ruble (BYN, ISO 4217 code 933, symbol Br or Br.) is the official currency of the Republic of Belarus, issued by the National Bank of the Republic of Belarus (NBRB, est. 1990). Subdivided into 100 kapeykas. Banknotes: Br5, Br10, Br20, Br50, Br100, Br200, Br500 (the highest denomination); coins: 1 kapeyka, 2 kapeykas, 5 kapeykas, 10 kapeykas, 20 kapeykas, 50 kapeykas, Br1, Br2. Belarus redenominated its currency on July 1, 2016 at 1 new ruble (BYN) = 10,000 old rubles (BYR) — reducing nominal values that had grown massive from 1990s-2010s inflation. The previous redenomination was 2000 at 1 new = 1,000 old. Belarus is closely economically aligned with Russia — a 1999 Union Treaty creates the Union State of Russia and Belarus though it has not progressed to formal political union. Following Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine (with Belarus serving as a launching platform for Russian forces toward Kyiv), Belarus faces extensive Western sanctions targeting major banks, defense industry (BelOMO, BelAZ, Integral, etc.), and President Alexander Lukashenko personally. BYN has been managed within bands against the Russian ruble.
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).
