Converting from CFA Franc - BEAC (XAF) to Azerbaijani Manat (AZN)

What is CFA Franc - BEAC (XAF)

The CFA Franc - BEAC (XAF) is a currency used in several Central African countries, which are part of the Economic and Monetary Community of Central Africa (CEMAC). The term "BEAC" stands for "Banque des États de l'Afrique Centrale," the central bank that issues this currency. The XAF is pegged to the euro, meaning its value is stable and determined in relation to the euro rather than being fully subject to market fluctuations.

The CFA Franc was originally introduced in 1945 and is commonly used in countries such as Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon. The currency symbol for the CFA Franc is "FCFA," and it is typically available in both coins and banknotes. The banknotes come in denominations of 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, and 10,000 XAF, while the coins include smaller denominations.

What is Azerbaijani Manat (AZN)

The Azerbaijani Manat (AZN) is the official currency of Azerbaijan, established in 1992. The Manat is denoted by the symbol "₼" and is subdivided into 100 qəpik. Initially pegged to the U.S. dollar, the Manat has undergone changes in its value since its introduction, with flexibility added in response to economic conditions. The Central Bank of Azerbaijan regulates and issues the currency, ensuring stability and controlling inflation.

Azerbaijan, bordered by the Caspian Sea and rich in oil and natural gas resources, has an economy that plays a significant role in the region. The Manat's value is influenced by various factors, including international oil prices and geopolitical circumstances. Though it has faced fluctuations, the government is focused on maintaining economic stability and managing inflation to protect the Manat's purchasing power.
