The Swiss Franc is abbreviated as "CHF" which stands for "Confoederatio Helvetica Franc," reflecting Switzerland's Latin name.

As of October 2023, the Swiss Franc is subdivided into 100 centimes. Its stability is largely due to Switzerland's strong economy, robust financial services sector, and low inflation rates. The Swiss National Bank (SNB) manages the currency, ensuring its stability and integrity through careful monetary policies.

In international markets, the Swiss Franc is often used as a reserve currency due to its reliability. Investors and traders often turn to CHF during times of economic uncertainty, making it a popular choice for diversifying portfolios. The currency is denoted by the symbol "Fr" or simply "SFr."

The Lev is subdivided into 100 stotinki, and the name "Lev" translates to "lion" in English, reflecting the historical importance of this majestic animal in Bulgarian culture. Since its introduction in 1881, the Lev has undergone several changes and revaluations, especially after Bulgaria transitioned to a market economy after the fall of communism in the early 1990s.

As of October 2023, the Bulgarian Lev is pegged to the Euro, which means its value is tied to the Euro's value, providing a degree of stability. The Bulgarian National Bank (BNB) is responsible for issuing and regulating the Lev, ensuring the currency's stability within the framework of the European Union.

For travelers and investors, understanding the exchange rate between the Swiss Franc and the Bulgarian Lev is vital. Currency conversion can fluctuate due to market conditions, making it essential to check recent rates before making any transactions.
