Converting from Mauritania Ougulya (MRO) to Malagasy Ariary (MGA)

What is Mauritania Ougulya (MRO)

Mauritania Ougulya (MRO) is the official currency of Mauritania, a country located in West Africa. The currency is abbreviated as MRO and is subdivided into 5 khoums. The Ougulya was introduced in 1973 to replace the previous currency, the Mauritanian ouguiya, at a rate of 1 Ougulya to 5 old ouguiyas. The Ougulya is further divided into smaller denominations, but the khoums have largely fallen out of general circulation.

The symbol for the Ougulya is "UM," and banknotes come in various denominations, including 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, and 500 MRO. Coins are available in lower denominations, but similar to many economies worldwide, the use of coins has decreased over time due to preference for paper currency.

The value of the Ougulya can fluctuate due to various economic factors, including inflation, government policy, and the overall health of the economy. As of my last update, the Ougulya was subject to depreciation against major world currencies, which affects international trade and purchasing power within the country.

What is Malagasy Ariary (MGA)

Madagascar uses the Malagasy Ariary (MGA) as its official currency. The Ariary was introduced in 2005, replacing the Malagasy franc at a rate of 1 Ariary to 5 francs. The symbol for the Ariary is "Ar," and it is unique as it is one of the few currencies in the world that is still pegged to a subdivision of 100, instead of 1,000 like many others.

The Malagasy Ariary is issued in both banknotes and coins, with banknotes available in denominations of 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, 10,000, and 20,000 MGA. Coins are available in smaller denominations, typically ranging from 1 to 200 Ariary. The Ariary is influenced by Madagascar’s economic landscape, which includes tourism, agriculture, and mining. The value of the Ariary tends to fluctuate according to economic changes, inflation rates, and market demand.
