Currency Conversion Guide

What is Currency Conversion?

Currency conversion is the process of exchanging one currency for another at a specific exchange rate. Exchange rates fluctuate constantly due to economic factors, market conditions, and geopolitical events.

How Exchange Rates Work

Exchange rates determine how much of one currency you can get for another. They are influenced by:

  • Economic indicators (GDP, inflation, employment)
  • Interest rates set by central banks
  • Political stability and government policies
  • Market speculation and investor sentiment
  • Trade balances and current accounts
  • Global events and economic crises

Currency Conversion Formula

Example: $100 USD × 0.85 EUR/USD = €85 EUR
