The lowdown on the New Taiwan Dollar
Economical Influences and the New Taiwan Dollar
If you are considering converting AUD to TWD, it’s good to get a snapshot on how the economy may influence the Taiwanese exchange rate.
The Taiwanese dollar is thought to be one of the most stable currencies in Asia. Taiwan has a capitalist economy driven largely by industrial manufacturing and exports. This heavy reliance on exports means that the economy is prone to fluctuation as global demand changes. The country runs a trade surplus with other international economies, including China and the US and its foreign reserves are the fifth largest in the world.1
In 2012 the Taiwan Central Bank signed a memorandum of understanding with China on cross-Strait currency settlement, closely linking the two nations economically.1
