Afghanistan Afghani - Currency Revaluation
ISO 4217 Amendment 117 details the revaluation of the Afghanistan
Afghani effective 7th October 2002, whereby 1,000 Afghanistan
Afghanis became 1 Afghanistan Afghani, and the associated
ISO code revision (AFA became AFN). The old and new codes
ran in parallel between 7th October 2002 and 2nd January 2003.
With effect from 6th January 2003, the exchange rates shown
in our products will reflect the revaluation of the Afghani
currency. These values are held in F4 Header Record C and
on 1 Series SEDOL records.
Within Header Record C are two slots to hold the Current and
Previous ISO Codes. To prevent new codes being output in customer
services without notice, no changes will be made to the content
of these slots until 20th January 2003. From this date, the
Previous ISO Code slot will hold AFA and the Current ISO Code
slot will hold AFN.
The descriptions of the affected EXSHARE/FTS Currency Formats
will be amended in an emergency Focal Point which will be
published during the week of 6th - 10th January 2003.
