About Nigerian Naira (₦)
The Nigerian Naira (NGN, ISO 4217 code 566, symbol ₦) is the official currency of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, issued by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN, est. 1958). Subdivided into 100 kobo. Banknotes: ₦5, ₦10, ₦20, ₦50, ₦100, ₦200, ₦500, ₦1,000 (the highest denomination; current series features Nigerian historical figures including Sir Tafawa Balewa, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, and includes the famously short-lived redesigned 2022 series); coins are rarely used in daily transactions. CBN announced a 'currency redesign' in October 2022 (new ₦200, ₦500, ₦1,000 banknotes) requiring withdrawal of old notes — implementation was chaotic, with widespread cash shortages in early 2023 contributing to election-period unrest. Nigeria is Africa's largest economy by nominal GDP (~$390B in 2024 per IMF WEO) and the world's 13th-largest oil producer (~1.4 million bpd). CBN abandoned the formal peg to USD in June 2023 under the new Bola Tinubu administration, unifying the official and parallel rates — naira depreciated ~70% in 12 months. Inflation reached 33%+ in 2024.
About Egyptian Pound (£)
The Egyptian Pound (EGP, ISO 4217 code 818, symbol £E or ج.م — gineh masry in Arabic) is the official currency of the Arab Republic of Egypt, issued by the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE, est. 1898 as National Bank of Egypt; CBE in current form 1961). Subdivided into 100 piastres (qirsh in Arabic). Banknotes: 5 piastres, 10 piastres, 25 piastres (paper, all rarely used), 50 piastres, £E1, £E5, £E10, £E20, £E50, £E100, £E200; CBE introduced polymer £E10 (2022) and £E20 (2023) banknotes as part of currency modernization. Egypt has undertaken multiple IMF Extended Fund Facility programs — most recently a $8 billion package signed March 2024 alongside a 60%+ EGP devaluation (from £E30 to £E50 per USD in a single day) and inflation reached ~36% in early 2024. Egypt is the most-populous Arab country (~115 million) and the largest economy in the Arab world by some measures, with major Suez Canal revenue (~$8-9B/year), tourism, natural gas exports, and remittances from Gulf workers (~$32B/year).
