About the South African Rand

The South African Rand (ZAR, R) is the official currency of South Africa and a legal tender in Lesotho, Eswatini and Namibia through the Common Monetary Area arrangement. The Rand is issued by the South African Reserve Bank (SARB) and is subdivided into 100 cents. Among African currencies, the Rand is the most liquid and the most actively traded in global FX markets, and it serves as a popular proxy for sub-Saharan emerging-market sentiment. As a result the Rand is materially more volatile than most African currencies, reacting to global risk-on / risk-off flows that have little to do with South African domestic fundamentals. For mobile-money flows the Rand is less central than the Naira or Cedi because South Africa's payment infrastructure is dominated by traditional bank rails and the country has no major MTN MoMo or M-Pesa retail wallet base.

About the Euro

The Euro (EUR, €) is the official currency of 20 European Union member states and the anchor of one of the most consequential fixed-peg arrangements in African monetary history. The Euro is issued by the European Central Bank in Frankfurt and is the second-largest reserve currency after the USD. Two African monetary unions — the West African Economic and Monetary Union (UEMOA / XOF) and the Central African Economic and Monetary Community (CEMAC / XAF) — peg their CFA francs to the EUR at the fixed rate of 655.957 CFA = 1 EUR. The peg has been in continuous operation since the 1999 introduction of the Euro, and replaced the prior French franc peg. For diaspora remitters in France, Belgium, Italy, Spain, Portugal and Germany, the EUR is the dominant send currency for the WAEMU and CEMAC corridors.
