About Croatian Kuna (kn)
The Croatian Kuna (HRK, ISO 4217 code 191, symbol kn; 'kuna' meaning 'marten' in Croatian โ referencing medieval Croatian trade in marten furs) was the official currency of Croatia from 1994 to December 31, 2022. Croatia adopted the Euro on January 1, 2023, becoming the 20th Eurozone member state. The conversion rate was fixed at HRK7.53450 per EUR per the European Council decision of July 12, 2022. HRK was subdivided into 100 lipa ('lipa' meaning 'linden tree'). Final HRK banknotes circulated in 5 kn, 10 kn, 20 kn, 50 kn, 100 kn, 200 kn, 500 kn, 1000 kn (highest denomination featuring Croatian historical figures โ Petar Zrinski, Nikola ล ubiฤ Zrinski, Stjepan Radiฤ, Ivan Gunduliฤ, Ban Josip Jelaฤiฤ, Stjepan Radiฤ, Marko Maruliฤ, Ante Starฤeviฤ). HRK ceased to be legal tender at the end of 14-day dual circulation (January 15, 2023). Croatia's BNB is the Croatian National Bank (HNB, est. 1990) which now operates within the Eurosystem alongside the ECB. Croatia joined the EU in 2013 and entered ERM-II in July 2020 alongside Bulgaria.
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).
