The National Bank of Ethiopia is responsible for the issuance and regulation of the birr. Over the years, the value of the Ethiopian Birr has experienced numerous fluctuations, influenced by economic conditions, inflation rates, and market demand. Like many developing countries, Ethiopia's economy is still growing, which can contribute to volatility in the currency's value.

In recent years, the Ethiopian government has initiated economic reforms aimed at stabilizing the birr and promoting growth. Exchange rates between the birr and other currencies like the British Pound can greatly vary, so it is crucial for travelers and businesses to stay informed.
