About Peruvian Sol (S/)
The Peruvian Sol (PEN, ISO 4217 code 604, symbol S/, renamed from 'Nuevo Sol' to simply 'Sol' in December 2015) is the official currency of the Republic of Peru, issued by the Banco Central de Reserva del Perú (BCRP, est. 1922). Subdivided into 100 céntimos. Banknotes: S/10, S/20, S/50, S/100, S/200 (the current 'Familia de Billetes' series features Peruvian historical figures and Amazon biodiversity); coins: 10 céntimos, 20 céntimos, 50 céntimos, S/1, S/2, S/5. Peru is one of the most monetarily stable countries in Latin America — the Sol has been one of the strongest-performing currencies in the region over the past two decades. The BCRP was the first inflation-targeting central bank in Latin America (started 2002) and currently targets 2% CPI ± 1%. Peru is the world's #2 copper producer (after Chile), the world's #1 silver producer, and one of the world's largest exporters of zinc, tin, fishmeal, asparagus, and avocados. Tourism contributes ~5% of GDP (Machu Picchu, Inca Trail, Lima gastronomy).
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).
