Converting from New Zealand Dollar (NZD) to Malagasy Ariary (MGA)

What is New Zealand Dollar (NZD)

The New Zealand Dollar (NZD) is the official currency of New Zealand, as well as several of its territories, including the Cook Islands, Niue, and Tokelau. Introduced in 1967, the NZD replaced the New Zealand pound at a rate of 1 NZD to 2.5 NZ pounds. It is abbreviated as NZD, with the dollar symbol being ＄. The currency is divided into 100 cents.

The NZD is known for its stability and is one of the most traded currencies in the Asia-Pacific region. Using a variety of denominations, it includes coins of 10, 20, and 50 cents, as well as ＄1 and ＄2 coins. Banknotes come in ＄5, ＄10, ＄20, ＄50, and ＄100 denominations. The design of the notes highlights notable figures from New Zealand’s history, as well as its unique flora and fauna.

Furthermore, the New Zealand economy is closely tied to global commodity prices, especially in sectors like agriculture and tourism. This makes the NZD sensitive to economic fluctuations and thus an attractive option for those seeking to invest or trade in foreign currencies.

What is Malagasy Ariary (MGA)

The Malagasy Ariary (MGA) is the official currency of Madagascar, an island nation located off the southeast coast of Africa. The Ariary replaced the Malagasy franc in 2005, with one Ariary equal to 5 francs. Its symbol is typically represented as MGA. This currency is unique in that it is one of the few currencies in Africa that uses a non-decimal system, wherein the Ariary is divided into 5 iraimbilanja.

The MGA can be found in various denominations, featuring coins of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 ariary. The banknotes, on the other hand, come in denominations of 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, 10,000, 20,000, and 50,000 ariary. Each note is beautifully illustrated, showcasing the rich culture and natural beauty of Madagascar.

Madagascar's economy is primarily based on agriculture, and it has been working to diversify into mining and tourism in recent years. This dependence on agriculture makes the MGA vulnerable to fluctuations in food prices and climate conditions. Investors and travelers should exercise caution when dealing with this currency, especially given Madagascar's political and economic challenges.
