Converting from Mongolian Tugrik (MNT) to Kenyan Shilling (KES)

What is Mongolian Tugrik (MNT)

The Mongolian Tugrik (MNT) is the official currency of Mongolia, introduced in 1925 to replace the Mongolian dollar. The name "Tugrik" translates to "round", which refers to the circular shape of the coins. The currency is abbreviated as "MNT," and it is subdivided into 100 mongos, although the usage of mongos has become quite rare.

The Mongolian economy primarily relies on agriculture and mining, and the Tugrik has seen fluctuations influenced by various factors including commodity prices and international trade. The symbol for the Tugrik is ₮, and both coins and banknotes are in circulation. Common banknote denominations include 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 500, 1,000, 5,000, and 10,000 Tugriks.

MNT is important for daily transactions within Mongolia and serves as an indicator of the country's economic health. Exchange rates can vary widely, with the Tugrik's value often affected by the overall stability of Mongolia's economy and external economic conditions.

What is Kenyan Shilling (KES)

The Kenyan Shilling (KES) is the official currency of Kenya and has been in use since 1966, replacing the East African shilling. The shilling is divided into 100 cents, with the currency symbol being "KSh" or just "Sh." The central bank, the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK), is responsible for issuing the currency and maintaining monetary policy.

The Kenyan economy is one of the largest in East Africa, supported mainly by agriculture, manufacturing, tourism, and services. The value of the KES can fluctuate based on economic factors such as inflation, interest rates, and foreign exchange reserves. Banknotes are available in denominations of 50, 100, 200, 500, and 1,000 shillings, while coins come in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, 40, and 50 cents.

Like the Tugrik, the value of the Kenyan Shilling is indicative of the nation’s economic status and is influenced by both local and global market conditions. Foreign exchange trading impacts its value against other currencies, including the Mongolian Tugrik.
