Converting from Albanian Lek (ALL) to Falkland Islands Pound (FKP)

What is Albanian Lek (ALL)

The Albanian Lek (ALL) is the official currency of Albania. Introduced in 1926, the Lek is noted for its rich heritage and represents the country’s economic stability. The currency is named after the national hero, Gjergj Kastrioti, also known as Skanderbeg. The symbol for the Lek is often represented as "L" or "ALL" when listed internationally.

The Lek is subdivided into 100 qindarka, although qindarka is rarely used today. Banknotes are available in various denominations, including 200, 500, 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, and 10,000 Lek. Coins are available in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 Lek.

The value of the Lek fluctuates against major currencies, influenced by various economic factors such as inflation and Albania's economic performance. When converting the Albanian Lek to other currencies, it is essential to be aware of prevailing exchange rates, as they can change daily. For those interested in travel or investment, understanding how the Lek performs against currencies like the Falkland Islands Pound is crucial.

What is Falkland Islands Pound (FKP)

The Falkland Islands Pound (FKP) is the currency used in the Falkland Islands, a British Overseas Territory located in the South Atlantic Ocean. The Falkland Islands Pound was introduced in 1984 and is pegged to the British Pound Sterling (GBP) at par, meaning 1 FKP is equal to 1 GBP. The pound is symbolized as "£" or "FKP."

Similar to the British Pound, the Falkland Islands Pound is subdivided into 100 pence.
