To prop up the value of the nation's currency, the central bank may resort to creating artificial demand for its currency. It can do this by using some of its foreign exchange reserves to buy local currency.

A currency peg is a policy in which a national government or central bank sets a fixed exchange rate for its currency with a foreign currency or a basket of currencies and stabilizes the exchange rate between countries.

If fractional amounts appear along with whole numbers, the form used should be the same for all amounts – '$28.00', '$16.52' and '$0.75', not '$28', '$16.52' and '75p' – and the cent or pence abbreviation should not be used along with the dollar or pound symbol ('$16.52¢' is never right).

When setting body text with currency symbols ($, ¢, €, ¥, £, p, ₩), there should be no spaces between the symbol and the number values. The symbol generally precedes the number, but when a value is less than a whole monetary value, the symbol follows.

You can calculate an exchange rate by dividing the amount of the currency you start with by the amount of the foreign currency you'll get back. For example, if you have $100 and you get €80 back, your exchange rate would be 100 divided by 80, or 1.25 Euros per dollar.

In many countries, the issuance of private paper currencies and/or the minting of metal coins intended to be used as currency may even be a criminal act such as in the United States (18 U.S. Code § 486).

For US dollars, the symbol '$' is sufficient abbreviation, unless there is a mixture of dollar currencies in the text. For other dollar currencies, '$' should be prefixed with the country abbreviation. For all other currencies, write the figure first followed by the currency name, for example, '100 million yuan'.

An exchange rate is commonly quoted using an acronym for the national currency it represents. For example, the acronym USD represents the U.S. dollar, while EUR represents the euro. To quote the currency pair for the dollar and the euro, it would be EUR/USD.

Decide whether to multiply or divide by the rate. If you are going from the “1” to the other currency then multiply. If you are going to the “1” from the other currency then divide.
