What makes the Boliviano unique is its stable value compared to other currencies in the region. The currency was introduced in 1987, replacing the previous currency, the Bolivian Peso. The Boliviano is issued by the Central Bank of Bolivia, which is responsible for managing the country's monetary policy and ensuring stable economic conditions.
