About the British Pound
The British Pound (GBP, £) is the official currency of the United Kingdom and the primary currency in which the UK-based African diaspora earns and sends. Issued by the Bank of England, the Pound is subdivided into 100 pence. The UK is one of the three largest remittance source markets for Africa, channelling several billion pounds a year primarily to Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Somalia, and Zimbabwe. After the 2016 Brexit referendum the GBP traded substantially weaker against both USD and EUR, which compressed remittance values when measured in either dollars or recipient local currency. Mobile-first remitters serving the UK-Africa corridor — Sendwave, LemFi, TapTap Send, Lemonade Finance — typically post a GBP rate within 0.5%–2% of interbank, with the fee structure varying by amount and destination.
About the Mozambican Metical
The Mozambican Metical (MZN, MT) is the official currency of Mozambique, issued by the Bank of Mozambique. The current Metical was introduced in July 2006 at a rate of 1 new Metical for 1,000 old Meticais as part of a redenomination intended to simplify accounting after years of inflation. Subdivided into 100 centavos, the Metical operates under a managed-float regime. The currency is structurally exposed to LNG-related FX inflows tied to the country's Rovuma Basin gas development and to coal export receipts; the timing of those flows materially shapes interbank liquidity. For diaspora and remittance flows to M-Pesa Mozambique and Mkesh, the formal-channel Metical rate stays close to the interbank reference, and Mozambique applies no specific government levy on mobile-money transactions, leaving the all-in cost competitive.
