About Singapore Dollar (S$)

The Singapore Dollar (SGD, ISO 4217 code 702, symbol S$) is the official currency of the Republic of Singapore and is interchangeable with the Brunei Dollar (BND) under the Currency Interchangeability Agreement of 1967 (both nations accept each other's currency at par for transactions). Issued by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS, est. 1971). Subdivided into 100 cents. Banknotes are polymer (since 2007): S$2, S$5, S$10, S$50, S$100, S$1000, S$10000 (the S$10,000 note โ€” featuring the late President Yusof bin Ishak โ€” was the world's highest-denomination banknote until withdrawn from issuance in 2014); coins: 5ยข, 10ยข, 20ยข, 50ยข, S$1. MAS uses an unusual monetary policy framework โ€” it manages SGD against a trade-weighted basket of currencies (the 'NEER policy band') rather than setting interest rates directly. Singapore is the world's 3rd-largest FX trading center after London and New York per BIS Triennial Survey 2022 (~9% of global FX turnover).

About Hong Kong Dollar (HK$)

The Hong Kong Dollar (HKD, ISO 4217 code 344, symbol HK$) is the official currency of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China, issued by three commercial banks under license from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA, est. 1993): HSBC, Standard Chartered Hong Kong, and Bank of China (Hong Kong). Subdivided into 100 cents. Banknotes: HK$10 (HKMA-issued, polymer), HK$20, HK$50, HK$100, HK$500, HK$1000 (commercial-bank issued, each bank's series featuring distinct designs); coins: 10ยข, 20ยข, 50ยข, HK$1, HK$2, HK$5, HK$10. HKD is pegged to USD under the Linked Exchange Rate System since October 17, 1983 โ€” the convertibility band is HK$7.75-7.85 per USD with HKMA's strong-side and weak-side convertibility undertakings. This makes HKD effectively a USD proxy. HKD circulates alongside CNY in cross-border trade but capital flows are managed by mainland authorities. Hong Kong is the world's 4th-largest FX trading center per BIS Triennial Survey.
