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).

About Barbadian Dollar (Bds$)

The Barbadian Dollar (BBD, ISO 4217 code 052, symbol Bds$ or simply $) is the official currency of Barbados — an island nation in the Caribbean, the easternmost of the Caribbean islands.
