With around 180 currencies in use worldwide, it’s a difficult task to keep an eye on them all, especially when exchange rates cause constant fluctuations in how they perform. There is a huge range of factors which can push a currency up, or down, the global rankings, including low inflation, interest rates and exports.

But what are the strongest currencies in the world? According to smartasset, a currency is classified as strong when it is worth more than another’s. In a country with a stronger currency, it would mean it would be easier for someone to holiday in a country with a weaker one, while products would also cost less for the former, and more for the latter. Revealed below are the 10 strongest currencies in the world.

The US dollar claims 10th place. It may be surprising to find America’s currency so low on the list, especially since it is the most traded currency on the planet. However, its strength is determined by complex factors, including supply and demand in the foreign exchange market. Currently, the USD stands at 1.29 to 1 GBP.

The EU is made up of 27 member states, of which 20 use the Euro, known as the Eurozone. The region is known for its single market, which allows for the freedom of services, goods and people between its members. Currently, the EUR stands at 1.29 to 1 GBP, earning it ninth place on the list.
