Answer to Question 1

A currency board is a government institution that exchanges domestic currency for foreign currency at a fixed rate of exchange. It is normally established to increase the credibility of a foreign exchange arrangement and thus increase confidence in the system. Currency boards achieve a credible fixed exchange rate by holding a stock of the foreign currency equal to 100 percent of the outstanding currency supply of the nation.
