History of the New Zealand Dollar

The New Zealand Dollar replaced the New Zealand Pound in 1967 when New Zealand decimalized its currency. Like its neighbor Australia, New Zealand has been a pioneer in polymer banknotes.

Global Importance

The NZD is among the top 10 most traded currencies. New Zealand's dairy and agricultural exports make the currency sensitive to commodity prices, particularly dairy.

Modern Usage

The New Zealand Dollar is the official currency of New Zealand and several Pacific Island territories. It's popular in carry trades due to relatively higher interest rates.
