About Dominican Peso (RD$)
The Dominican Peso (DOP, ISO 4217 code 214, symbol RD$ or just $) is the official currency of the Dominican Republic, issued by the Banco Central de la República Dominicana (BCRD, est. 1947). Subdivided into 100 centavos (no longer in active circulation). Banknotes: RD$20 (rare), RD$50, RD$100, RD$200, RD$500, RD$1,000, RD$2,000 (the highest denomination, introduced 2014; current series features Dominican historical figures — Padre Billini, Salomé Ureña, Juan Pablo Duarte, Gregorio Luperón, Salomé Ureña, Heroínas Mirabal sisters, Las Casas del Cordón); coins: RD$1, RD$5, RD$10, RD$25. The Dominican Republic is the Caribbean's largest economy by nominal GDP (~$120B in 2024) and one of Latin America's fastest-growing — averaging 5-6% GDP growth annually pre-COVID with strong post-pandemic recovery. Major economic sectors include tourism (the Caribbean's #1 tourist destination, ~10 million visitors annually — Punta Cana, Puerto Plata, Santo Domingo Colonial Zone UNESCO site), remittances (~10% of GDP from US diaspora — ~2 million Dominicans in the US), free-trade zone manufacturing (textiles, medical devices, electronics), mining (gold from Pueblo Viejo, Barrick Gold's largest single asset). BCRD targets 4% CPI inflation ± 1 percentage point.
About Japanese Yen (¥)
The Japanese Yen (JPY, ISO 4217 code 392, symbol ¥) is the official currency of Japan, issued by the Bank of Japan (BoJ, est. 1882). Not subdivided in modern usage (the historical 1/100 sen and 1/1000 rin units were demonetized in 1953). Banknotes: ¥1,000 (Hideyo Noguchi → Kitasato Shibasaburō on 2024 new series), ¥5,000 (Higuchi Ichiyō → Tsuda Umeko on 2024 new series), ¥10,000 (Fukuzawa Yukichi → Shibusawa Eiichi on 2024 new series); coins: ¥1, ¥5, ¥10, ¥50, ¥100, ¥500. The 2024 new-series banknotes were the first major redesign since 2004. JPY is the world's third-largest reserve currency (~6% of global FX reserves per IMF COFER 2024), the third-most-traded currency (after USD and EUR) per BIS Triennial Survey, and historically a major funding currency for carry trades. BoJ has maintained ultra-loose monetary policy (Yield Curve Control YCC, then phased out March 2024 with first rate hike since 2007).
