Zambia one hundred kwacha note
The one hundred kwacha note of Zambia is a denomination of the Zambian currency.
The current paper note, first issued in 2013 features the Freedom Statue in Lusaka, the issuing authority of legal tenders in Zambia, in the middle there is the National Assembly, the face value of the banknote in words in the lower left corner, and in numerals in the other three corners and the new printer imprint Giesecke & Devrient at the lower right corner, there is also a Buffalo on the reverse. The obverse features the African fish eagle which is considered as the primary recognition of the Zambian banknote, together with the coat of arms, the signature of the Bank of Zambia Governor and obligation to pay the sum indicated on the banknote, and the face value of the specified banknote and the Baobab Tree.
It is the highest denomination of banknote issued by the Bank of Zambia since January, 2013 when the three zeros from the preexisting denomination K500, K1,000, K5,000, K10,000, K20,000 and K50,000 were removed.
Economy of Namibia
The Namibian economy is closely linked to South Africa with the Namibian dollar pegged to the South African rand. Privatisation of several enterprises in coming years may stimulate long-run foreign investment, although with the trade union movement opposed, so far most politicians have been reluctant to advance the issue. In September 1993, Namibia introduced its own currency, the Namibia Dollar (N$), which is linked to the South African Rand at a fixed exchange rate of 1:1. There has been widespread acceptance of the Namibia Dollar throughout the country and, while Namibia remains a part of the Common Monetary Area, it now enjoys slightly more flexibility in monetary policy although interest rates have so far always moved very closely in line with the South African rates.
