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(the S$10,000 note — featuring the late President Yusof bin Ishak — was the world's highest-denomination banknote until withdrawn from issuance in 2014); coins: 5¢, 10¢, 20¢, 50¢, S$1. MAS uses an unusual monetary policy framework — 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 Indian Rupee (₹)
The Indian Rupee (INR, ISO 4217 code 356, symbol ₹) is the official currency of the Republic of India, issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI, est. 1935). Subdivided into 100 paise. Banknotes: ₹10, ₹20, ₹50, ₹100, ₹200, ₹500, ₹2,000 (₹2,000 withdrawal completed by RBI as of October 2023 demonetization); coins: ₹1, ₹2, ₹5, ₹10, ₹20. The 50 paise coin is no longer commonly accepted. The famous 'demonetization' of November 8, 2016 invalidated ₹500 and ₹1,000 notes overnight (86% of cash by value), an unprecedented monetary policy intervention. India is the world's 5th-largest economy by nominal GDP (~$3.7T in 2024 per IMF WEO) and the 3rd-largest by PPP. The RBI targets 4% CPI inflation ± 2% band per the Monetary Policy Framework Agreement 2015 + RBI Act amendment 2016 establishing the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC). INR is also de facto used in Bhutan (pegged 1:1 to Bhutanese Ngultrum) and Nepal (NPR pegged at 1.6:1 to INR since 1993).
