Макаоның валютасы
Currency of Macau
Макаода валюталық кеңес жүйесі қолданылады, онда патака 100 пайыздық көлемде шетелдік валюта резервтерімен қамтамасыз етіледі. Қазіргі уақытта бұл резервтер Гонконг долларынан (өзі АҚШ долларымен қамтамасыз етілген) тұрады. Сонымен қатар, Макаоның ақша-несиелік органы (AMCM) заң бойынша Макао патакасын Гонконг долларына шағылыстырылған 1 Гонконг доллары = 1,03 Макао патакасы тұрақты бағамымен, кез келген көлемде беру және қайта сатып алу міндеттемесін өтейді.
Macau has a currency board system under which the pataca is 100 per cent backed by foreign exchange reserves, in this case currently the Hong Kong dollar (itself backed by the United States dollar). Moreover, the currency board, Monetary Authority of Macau (AMCM), has a statutory obligation to issue and redeem Macau pataca on demand against the Hong Kong dollar at a fixed exchange rate of HK$1 = MOP 1.03, and without limit.
Тарих
Испандық америкалық күміс доллар 16-шы – 20-шы ғасырлар аралығында Азия мен Америкада кеңінен қолданылып, Қытай оны көп мөлшерде импорттаған. Олар әдетте Мексикада соғылып, кейін Манила-Акапулько галеон саудасы арқылы Филиппинге, Испанияның Шығыс Үндістанының бөлігі ретінде алыс Шығысқа саудаға жіберілген. Португалдықтар оны мексикалық патака деп атаған. 19-шы ғасырдың соңында Макаода осы күміс доллардың немесе патаканың әртүрлі нұсқалары қолданыста болды: испандық долларлар, Гонконг пен Тынық мұхиты елдерінің британдық сауда доллары, сондай-ақ көршілес Кантон провинциясының күміс доллары мен ұсақ монеталары. 1894 жылы португалдық Макао мен португалдық Тиморде 1 патака = 450 рейс есебімен, яғни мексикалық песо немесе филиппин песосына тең есептік бірлік ретінде енгізілді. 1901 жылы Макаоның ерекше валютасы болуы туралы шешім қабылданды және осы мақсатта Banco Nacional Ultramarino-ға патакамен есептелетін заңды төлем құралы банкноттарды шығарудың эксклюзивті құқығы берілді. 1906 жылдың 27 қаңтарында 1, 5, 50 және 100 номиналындағы патака банкноттары енгізілді және барлық шетелдік монеталар заңсыз деп жарияланды, мақсаты – патака қағаз ақшасын Макаодағы жалғыз заңды төлем құралы ету болды. Алайда, қытайлықтар күміспен сауда жасауға үйренгендіктен, бұл жаңа қағаз ақшаға күдікпен қарады, сондықтан қағаз патака әрқашан күміс доллар монеталарынан арзанға сатылды. Керісінше, сол уақытта және сол мақсатта Тынық мұхиты елдерінде жасалған ұқсас әрекет жаңа Тынық долларын алтынмен айырбастау стандартына енгізудің басқаша нәтижесіне әкелді. Осылайша, Макао патакасы мен Тынық доллары 2 шиллинг пен 4 пенс стерлингтік құнмен шығарылды, бірақ Тынық доллары 1960 жылға дейін сол құнмен сақталса, Макао патакасы күмістің құнына байланысты өзгеретін болды, Гонконг бірлігі сияқты. 1935 жылы Гонконг пен Қытай күміс стандартынан бас тартқанда, Гонконг бірлігі 1 шиллинг пен 3 пенс мөлшерлемесімен стерлингке, ал Макао патакасы 1 MOP = 5 Esc 50 бағамымен португал эскудосына бекітілді. Бұл Макао патакасының құны 1 шиллингке тең екенін білдірді, демек Гонконг бірлігіне қарағанда 3 пенске арзан болды. Макаоның алғашқы монеталары 1952 жылы ғана шығарылды, бұл Шығыс Тимор үшін соңғы патака ұсақ монеталары соғылған жыл болды. Сол жылы Макаода 10 патакадан төмен номиналды монеталар монеталармен алмастырылды.

BNU IEM-нің агенттік банкі болды және банкноттарды шығаруды жалғастырды. 1995 жылдың 16 қазанында BNU-мен келісімге сәйкес, Қытай банкының Макаодағы филиалы (Banco da China, 中國銀行澳門分行) екінші банкнота шығару банкі атанды. Патака шығару құқығы Макаоның валюталық органына берілді.
The Spanish American silver dollar was in wide use in Asia and the Americas between the 16th to 20th centuries, and was imported by China in large quantities. They were typically minted in Mexico and then brought to the Philippines as part of the Spanish East Indies through the Manila Acapulco Galleon Trade to be traded and circulated across the Far East. It was known to the Portuguese as the pataca mexicana. At the end of the 19th century various versions of this silver dollar or pataca were in use in Macau, in the form of Spanish dollars, the British trade dollars of Hong Kong and the Straits Settlements, as well as the silver dollars and fractional coinage of the neighbouring province of Canton. In 1894, the pataca was introduced as a unit of account in Portuguese Macau and Portuguese Timor at a rate of 1 pataca = 450 réis, equivalent to the Mexican Peso or Philippine Peso. In 1901, it was decided to have a uniquely Macau currency, and for that purpose, the Banco Nacional Ultramarino was granted exclusive rights to issue legal tender banknotes that were to be denominated in patacas. On January 27, 1906, pataca notes in denominations of 1, 5, 50 and 100 were introduced and all foreign coinage was outlawed, the idea being to make the pataca paper notes the sole legal tender currency in Macau. However, the Chinese, being so accustomed to using silver for barter, were suspicious of this new paper money, and as such, the paper pataca always circulated at a discount in relation to the silver dollar coins. On the contrary, a similar action at exactly the same time in the Straits Settlements, and for the same purpose, had the different effect of putting the new Straits dollar into the gold exchange standard. Hence both the Macau pataca and the Straits dollar were launched at a sterling value of 2 shillings and 4 pence, but where the Straits dollar remained at that value until the 1960s, the Macau pataca fluctuated with the value of silver, just like the Hong Kong unit. In 1935, when Hong Kong and China abandoned the silver standard, the Hong Kong unit was pegged to sterling at a rate of 1 shilling and 3 pence, while the Macau pataca was pegged to the Portuguese escudo at a rate of MOP 1 = Esc 5$50. This meant that the Macau pataca was worth only 1 shilling and was therefore at a discount of 3 pence in relation to the Hong Kong unit. The first exclusively Macau coinage was not introduced until the year 1952, which happened to be the year after the last pataca fractional coins were minted for East Timor. In that year in Macau, denominations below 10 patacas were replaced by coins. +Pegs for the Macau patacaDate established1 pataca =18941 Spanish/Mexican/Philippine peso19355.5 Portuguese escudos19495 Portuguese escudos19674.75 Portuguese escudos19735.015 Portuguese escudos 1 Hong Kong dollar =19771.075 patacas19781.0025 patacas19791.0425 patacas19831.03 patacas
In 1980, the Macau government set up the Issuing Institute of Macau (Instituto Emissor de Macau; abbr. as IEM), which was given the monopoly right to issue pataca notes. The BNU became the IEM's agent bank and continued to issue banknotes. On agreement with the BNU on October 16, 1995, the Macau branch of Bank of China (Banco da China, 中國銀行澳門分行) became the second note issuing bank. The authority to issue patacas was transferred to the Monetary Authority of Macau.

Монеталар
Макаода 1952 жылға дейін монеталар шығарылмаған, онда Кантон провинциясының 20 центтік монетасы айналыста болған. 1952 жылы қоладан 5 және 10 аво, купроникельден 50 аво және .720 тазалықтағы күміс 1 және 5 патакалар енгізілді. 1967 жылы 5 авоның соңғы шығарылымын қоса алғанда, никельді мыс қоланың орнын басты. 1968 жылы 1 патакада күміс алмастырылды. 1971 жылы 5 патаканың соңғы (.650 тазалықтағы) күміс монетасы шығарылды. 1982 жылы қола 10, 20 және 50 аво, ал купроникельден 1 және 5 патакалар енгізілді. 20 аво мен 5 патака 1993 және 1992 жылдары сәйкесінше он екі бұрышты болды, ал 1997 жылы 10 патаканың екі металдан жасалған монетасы, 1998 жылы 2 купроникельді патака енгізілді. Монеталарды Макаоның валюталық органы шығарады. +Қазіргі айналыстағы монеталар Сурет Бағасы Сипаттамасы Бірінші шығарылған жылы Алдыңғы жағы Арт жағы Құрамы Алдыңғы жағы Арт жағы 10 аво Мыс "Макао", "澳門" Бағасы, Арыстан биінің бас киімі 1993 20 аво Бағасы, Ажығалдақ 50 аво Бағасы, Ажы биі $1 Купроникель Бағасы, Гия маяғы 1992 $2 Бағасы, Templo de A Má және Penha шіркеуі 1998 $5 Бағасы, Сент-Пол соборы, қытай кемесі 1992 $10 Сақина: Мыс Ортасы: Купроникель Бағасы, Макаодағы Сент-Доминик шіркеуі 1997
Coins were not issued for use in Macau until 1952, with the 20 cent coin of Canton Province circulating. In 1952, bronze 5 and 10 avos, cupro nickel 50 avos and .720 fineness silver 1 and 5 patacas were introduced. Nickel brass replaced bronze in 1967, including the last issue of 5 avos. Nickel replaced silver in the 1 pataca in 1968. In 1971, a final (.650 fineness) silver issue of 5 patacas was produced. Brass 10, 20 and 50 avos and cupro nickel 1 and 5 patacas were introduced in 1982. The 20 avos and 5 patacas became dodecagonal in 1993 and 1992, respectively, whilst a bimetallic 10 patacas was introduced in 1997 and a cupronickel 2 patacas in 1998.

Банкноттар
Гонконгтағы банкноттармен ұқсас тәртіпте, Макао банкноттары орталық банк немесе ақша-несие органы емес, екі коммерциялық банк – Banco Nacional Ultramarino және Bank of China арқылы шығарылады. Макаоның португалдық отаршылдық тарихына байланысты, банкноттар португал және қытай тілдерінде басылады, соның ішінде Қытай банкі атауы «Banco da China» және «中國銀行» деп жазылады. 1906 жылы патака банкноттарының алғашқы шығарылымынан кейін, жаңа валюта келесі жылы 10 және 25 патака банкноттарымен толықтырылды, ал 1920 жылдың ақпан айында 5, 10 және 50 аво банкноттары қосылды. 1923 жылы Banco Vui Hang 10 патака банкнотын енгізді, олар кантондық 20 центтік монеталармен қамтамасыз етілгенін көрсетеді. Осы банкноттардан кейін 1934 жылға дейін әртүрлі банктерден 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, 200, 400, 800 және 1000 доллар номиналында кассалық чектер шығарылды, олар патакаға баламалы болды. 1942 жылы BNU эмиссиясы 1 және 20 аво банкноттарымен, ал 1944 жылы 500 патака банкнотымен толықтырылды. 1944 жылы тағы да 1000 юань және 5000 доллар сомасында кассалық чектер шығарылды. 25 патака банкноты 1958 жылдан кейін қолданыстан шығарылды. 1988 жылдың 8 тамызында BNU 1000 патака банкнотын шығарды, ол осы уақытқа дейін шығарылған ең жоғары номиналды банкнота болды. Қытай тілінде 8 (ба) саны «бай болу» (фа; 發) сөзімен ұқсас болғандықтан, ғасырға бір рет келетін бұл ерекше күн банкнотаға ерекше маңыз береді. Тағы бір ерекшелігі – Португалияның елтаңбасын BNU логотипімен алмастыру, Қытаймен қайта бірігу мүмкіндігіне байланысты саяси символдан бас тарту. 1995 жылы Bank of China 10, 50, 100, 500 және 1000 патака номиналында банкноттарды енгізді. BNU және Bank of China 1996 жылы 20 патака банкнотын енгізді.
In a similar arrangement to the issue of banknotes in Hong Kong, Macau's banknotes are not issued by a central bank or monetary authority but by two commercial banks, the Banco Nacional Ultramarino and the Bank of China. Owing to Macau's Portuguese colonial past, banknotes are printed in Portuguese as well as Chinese, including the name of the Bank of China which is written as both "Banco da China" and "中國銀行". Following the initial issues of pataca banknotes in 1906, the new currency was supplemented the following year by 10 and 25 pataca notes, and in February 1920, 5, 10 and 50 avo notes were added. In 1923, the Banco Vui Hang introduced 10 pataca notes which stated that they were backed by Cantonese 20 cent coins. These notes were followed until 1934 by cashier's cheques issued by various banks in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, 200, 400, 800 and 1,000 dollars, presumably equivalent to the pataca. The BNU issues were augmented by 1 and 20 avo notes in 1942, and in 1944, 500 pataca notes were introduced. Also in 1944, further cashier's cheques were issued, denominated 1,000 yuan and NC$5,000. The 25 pataca note was discontinued after 1958. On August 8, 1988, BNU issued a 1000 pataca banknote, the highest value banknote yet. Because 8 in Chinese (ba) is similar to "getting rich" (fa; 發), this unique date, which occurs only once per century, gives the note a special meaning. Another feature is the replacement of the coat of arms of Portugal with BNU's logo, shedding a political symbol in the prospect of reunification with China. In 1995, the Bank of China introduced notes in denominations of 10, 50, 100, 500 and 1000 patacas. Both the BNU and Banco of China introduced 20 pataca notes in 1996.
Қазіргі шығарылым
Қазіргі уақытта банкноттар 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 және 1000 патака номиналында шығарылады. Ағымдағы BNU банкноттары 2005 жылы, ал Қытай банкінің банкноттары 1995 және 2003 жылдар аралығында соңғы рет шығарылды. Банкноттардың мөлшері сәйкес сомадағы Гонконг банкноттарының мөлшерімен бірдей. 1999 жылдың 20 желтоқсанында, Макао Қытайға қайтарылған күні, екі банк барлық номиналдағы (10 патакадан басқа) банкноттарды сол датамен қайта шығарды. 2009 жылдың 5 қаңтарында Макаоның валюталық органы Қытай банкі шығарған 2008 жылғы жаңа банкноттар сериясын жариялады. 2024 жылы Banco Nacional Ultramarino және Bank of China (Макао) жаңа банкноттар сериясын енгізуге жоспарлап отыр. Номиналдық құрылымы бұрынғы шығарылымдармен бірдей, бірақ банкноттарда жақсартылған қауіпсіздік элементтері және көру қабілеті бұзылған адамдар үшін қосымша мүмкіндіктер қарастырылған.
Banknotes are currently issued in denominations of 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 and 1,000 patacas. The current series of BNU banknotes was issued in 2005, while the Bank of China notes were last issued between 1995 and 2003. The dimensions of the banknotes are the same as that of Hong Kong banknotes worth the corresponding number of dollars. On December 20, 1999, the day Macau was retroceded to China, banknotes of all values (except for 10 patacas) by both banks were reissued with that date. On January 5, 2009, the Monetary Authority of Macau announced a new series of banknotes, dated 2008, released by the Bank of China. In 2024, both the Banco Nacional Ultramarino and the Bank of China (Macau) are set to introduce a new series of notes. The denomination structure is the same as previous issues, but the notes come with advanced security features and include features accessible for those with visual impairments.

On December 20, 1999, the day Macau was retroceded to China, banknotes of all values (except for 10 patacas) by both banks were reissued with that date. On January 5, 2009, the Monetary Authority of Macau announced a new series of banknotes, dated 2008, released by the Bank of China. In 2024, both the Banco Nacional Ultramarino and the Bank of China (Macau) are set to introduce a new series of notes. The denomination structure is the same as previous issues, but the notes come with advanced security features and include features accessible for those with visual impairments.

Banknotes are currently issued in denominations of 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 and 1,000 patacas. The current series of BNU banknotes was issued in 2005, while the Bank of China notes were last issued between 1995 and 2003. The dimensions of the banknotes are the same as that of Hong Kong banknotes worth the corresponding number of dollars. On December 20, 1999, the day Macau was retroceded to China, banknotes of all values (except for 10 patacas) by both banks were reissued with that date. On January 5, 2009, the Monetary Authority of Macau announced a new series of banknotes, dated 2008, released by the Bank of China. In 2024, both the Banco Nacional Ultramarino and the Bank of China (Macau) are set to introduce a new series of notes. The denomination structure is the same as previous issues, but the notes come with advanced security features and include features accessible for those with visual impairments.

Banknotes are currently issued in denominations of 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 and 1,000 patacas. The current series of BNU banknotes was issued in 2005, while the Bank of China notes were last issued between 1995 and 2003. The dimensions of the banknotes are the same as that of Hong Kong banknotes worth the corresponding number of dollars. On December 20, 1999, the day Macau was retroceded to China, banknotes of all values (except for 10 patacas) by both banks were reissued with that date. On January 5, 2009, the Monetary Authority of Macau announced a new series of banknotes, dated 2008, released by the Bank of China. In 2024, both the Banco Nacional Ultramarino and the Bank of China (Macau) are set to introduce a new series of notes. The denomination structure is the same as previous issues, but the notes come with advanced security features and include features accessible for those with visual impairments.

Banknotes are currently issued in denominations of 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 and 1,000 patacas. The current series of BNU banknotes was issued in 2005, while the Bank of China notes were last issued between 1995 and 2003. The dimensions of the banknotes are the same as that of Hong Kong banknotes worth the corresponding number of dollars. On December 20, 1999, the day Macau was retroceded to China, banknotes of all values (except for 10 patacas) by both banks were reissued with that date. On January 5, 2009, the Monetary Authority of Macau announced a new series of banknotes, dated 2008, released by the Bank of China. In 2024, both the Banco Nacional Ultramarino and the Bank of China (Macau) are set to introduce a new series of notes. The denomination structure is the same as previous issues, but the notes come with advanced security features and include features accessible for those with visual impairments.

2008 жылы Қытай банкінің Макао филиалы Пекинде өткен 29-шы жазғы Олимпиада ойындарын еске алу үшін төрт миллион 20 патака банкнота шығарды. 2012 жылы Banco Nacional Ultramarino және Banco da China Аждаһа жылын мерекелеу үшін он миллион 10 патака банкнота шығарды, ал 2012 жылдан 2023 жылға дейін Banco National Ultramarino және Banco da China әрқайсысы айлық жаңа жылды атап өту үшін номиналды құны 10 патака болатын 20 миллионға дейін арнайы банкнота шығаруға уәкілдік алды.

Макаоның Қытай Халық Республикасына қайтарылғанының 20 жылдығына арналған шара ретінде Banco Nacional Ultramarino және Banco da China бес миллион 20 патака банкнота шығарды.

Банкноталардың арт жағында Гонконг-Чжухай-Макао көпірі суреттелген.
In 2008, the Macau branch of the Bank of China issued four million 20 pataca banknotes in commemoration of the 29th Summer Olympic Games in Beijing.

Валюталық бағамы
Патака Макаоның ресми валютасы болғанына қарамастан, аймақта айналымдағы ақшаның көп бөлігі Гонконг долларынан тұрады. 1998 жылдың соңында Макаоның ақша ұсынымының тек 29,9%-ын патакалар құрады. Айналым бағамы бекітілген және шамамен 1 Гонконг долларына MOP 1.03-ке тең, ал Гонконг доллары банкноттары мен монеталары көбінесе бөлшек сауда төлемдері үшін номиналды құнмен немесе MOP 1.00-ге қабылданады. Гонконг долларына, ол өз кезегінде АҚШ долларына шамалы байланысты, айырбас бағамы шамамен 1 АҚШ долларына MOP 8 құрайды. Макаода патакаларды айырбастау мүмкін болғанымен, басқа жерде мұны жасау қиын немесе мүмкін емес. Гонконгта патака қолжетімді болатын бірнеше орын Гонконг-Макао паром терминалынан алыс емес, Орталықтағы Клеверли көшесінде шоғырланған. Патака Макаоның заңды төлем құралы болғанымен, Гонконг доллары аймақта кеңінен қабылданады және кейде патакадан артық көріледі. Патаканың айналымын саудагерлердің бас тартуына тыйым салатын жарлықпен (Decreto Lei n.º 16/95/M) міндеттемемен қамтамасыз етілген, бірақ кейбір казинолар бұл ережені бұзып, патакадағы ставкаларды қабылдамайды. Гонконг доллары мен қытай юаны Макаоның казиноларынан бастап мейрамханаларына дейін барлық жерде қабылданады. Мемлекеттік органдарға төлемдер Гонконг доллары мен патаканың екеуімен де жүзеге асырылуы мүмкін. Макао қазіргі уақытта жергілікті немесе шетелдік валютаның импортына немесе экспортына шектеулер қоймайды, сондықтан келушілер өз валюталарын қаланың барлық аймақтарындағы қонақүйлерде, банктерде және айырбастау бюроларында, соның ішінде Макао халықаралық әуежайындағы (Тайпа аралы) және Лисбоа қонақүйіндегі (Макао түбегі) 24 сағаттық валюта айырбастау кабиналарында жұмыс уақытынан тыс айырбастай алады. + MOP жылдық орташа орталық айырбас бағамы, 2002 жылдан бастап (1 шетел валюта бірлігіне MOP)Жыл20022003200420052006200720082009Гонконг доллары1.031.031.031.031.031.031.031.03Циньби0.97060.96910.96930.97781.00251.05601.15461.1688АҚШ доллары8.03348.02148.02268.01098.00068.03608.02067.9842Британ фунт стерлингі12.076613.104014.691114.582014.699316.088714.896512.5159Жаңа Тайвань доллары0.23280.23320.24010.24940.24620.24470.25480.2418Еуро7.59849.06969.96459.972110.027211.004911.809211.1309Австралия доллары4.37035.22715.90216.10646.01696.73516.85526.3269Оңтүстік Корея воны0.00650.00670.00700.00780.00840.00870.00740.0063Жапон иены0.06430.06920.07420.07290.06890.06830.07760.0854Малайзия ринггиті2.11412.11092.11122.11552.17972.33742.41242.2669Жаңа Зеландия доллары3.73064.66715.32145.64365.18895.91285.73415.0721Сингапур доллары4.48934.60344.74524.81375.02945.33255.67885.4955Швейцария франкі5.18125.96326.45726.44246.38016.69987.43267.3721
Despite the fact that the pataca is the official currency of Macau, most of the money in circulation in the Region is actually Hong Kong dollars. Patacas accounted for only 29.9% of Macau's money supply at the end of 1998. The exchange rate is pegged and is approximately MOP 1.03 for HK$1, and Hong Kong dollar banknotes and coins are generally accepted at par or MOP 1.00 for retail payments. For United States dollars, to which the Hong Kong dollar is in turn loosely pegged, the exchange rate is around MOP 8 to 1 US dollar. Although it is possible to exchange patacas in Macau, it is either difficult or impossible to do so elsewhere. The few places in Hong Kong where patacas are available are concentrated on Cleverly Street in Central, a short distance from the Hong Kong–Macau Ferry Terminal. Although the pataca is the legal tender of Macau, the Hong Kong dollar is almost universally acceptable in the region, and in some cases, is preferred to the pataca. Circulation of the pataca is mandated by a decree (Decreto Lei n.º 16/95/M) prohibiting refusal by merchants, but some casinos flout this rule and refuse bets in patacas. The Hong Kong dollar and Chinese yuan are generally accepted throughout Macau from casinos to restaurants. Payments to government agencies can also be made in both Hong Kong dollars and patacas. As Macau currently imposes no restrictions on the import or export of local or foreign currency, visitors can change their currency in hotels, banks and bureaux de change located all around the city including 24 hour currency exchange booths at Macau International Airport (Taipa Island) and at the Lisboa Hotel (Macau Peninsula) for customers if they want to change their currency into patacas outside working hours. + MOP annual average middle exchange rate for major foreign currencies, from 2002 on (1 foreign currency unit to MOP)Year20022003200420052006200720082009Hong Kong dollar1.031.031.031.031.031.031.031.03Renminbi0.97060.96910.96930.97781.00251.05601.15461.1688United States dollar8.03348.02148.02268.01098.00068.03608.02067.9842Pound sterling12.076613.104014.691114.582014.699316.088714.896512.5159New Taiwan dollar0.23280.23320.24010.24940.24620.24470.25480.2418Euro7.59849.06969.96459.972110.027211.004911.809211.1309Australian dollar4.37035.22715.90216.10646.01696.73516.85526.3269South Korean won0.00650.00670.00700.00780.00840.00870.00740.0063Japanese yen0.06430.06920.07420.07290.06890.06830.07760.0854Malaysian ringgit2.11412.11092.11122.11552.17972.33742.41242.2669New Zealand dollar3.73064.66715.32145.64365.18895.91285.73415.0721Singapore dollar4.48934.60344.74524.81375.02945.33255.67885.4955Swiss franc5.18125.96326.45726.44246.38016.69987.43267.3721
