Converting from Bosnia and Herzegovina Convertible Mark (BAM) to Neth Antilles Guilder (ANG)

What is Bosnia and Herzegovina Convertible Mark (BAM)

The Bosnia and Herzegovina convertible mark (BAM) is the official currency of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was introduced in 1998 and replaced the previous currency, the Bosnia and Herzegovina dinar. The BAM is subdivided into 100 fenings, although the fening coins are not widely used.

The convertible mark is pegged to the Euro (EUR) at a rate of approximately 1.96 BAM to 1 EUR, which provides stability for its value in the international market. The Central Bank of Bosnia and Herzegovina is responsible for the issuance and regulation of the BAM. The currency is utilized primarily for domestic transactions, but it’s also accepted in some neighboring countries and regions.

BAM banknotes feature prominent historical and cultural figures from Bosnia and Herzegovina, along with important landmarks and symbols that highlight the country’s rich heritage. Coins are available in various denominations, making it easier for locals and tourists alike to transact for goods and services.

What is Neth Antilles Guilder (ANG)

The Neth Antilles Guilder (ANG) was the official currency of the Netherlands Antilles, which was dissolved in October 2010. Although the Netherlands Antilles no longer exists as a political entity, the ANG remains in use in the islands of Curaçao and Sint Maarten. One guilder is subdivided into 100 cents.

The ANG is pegged to the US dollar (USD), with a fixed exchange rate of approximately 1.79 ANG to 1 USD. This fixed rate serves to stabilize the currency against fluctuations in the international market, providing a secure environment for both residents and businesses in the region.

Much like the BAM, the Neth Antilles Guilder has its own unique banknotes and coins, which feature symbols, flora, fauna, and notable figures central to the culture and history of the islands. The banknotes come in various denominations, providing convenience for everyday transactions.
