CFP Franc (XPF): Overview and Usage
The CFP franc (XPF) is the official currency of three French overseas collectivities: French Polynesia, New Caledonia, and Wallis and Futuna. Its ISO code is XPF, and it is issued by the Institut d'émission d'outre-mer (IEOM). The currency is subdivided into 100 centimes, although centime coins are no longer in circulation.
The CFP franc has a fixed exchange rate with the euro: 1 euro equals 119.3317 XPF. This peg was established in 1999 when the euro replaced the French franc, maintaining the previous parity with the French franc. The stability of this peg provides economic predictability for the territories, which are heavily reliant on trade with the eurozone.
Historically, the CFP franc was created in 1945 to protect the colonies from the devaluation of the French franc. Today, it serves as a symbol of economic integration with France and the European Union. Banknotes and coins are issued in denominations that reflect the currency's practical use, with coins featuring local motifs and banknotes depicting regional landmarks.
