Methodology
|
Calculated on the basis of month-end buying and selling rates (April - July 2013 middle rates; since October 2013, month-end data represent rates as at the first business day of the following month, as a rule). The exchange rates applying to the old won until December 2009 have been recalculated at a ratio of 100:1 so as to accommodate the new won. |

Comment on
2010 |
According to information provided by the Foreign Trade Bank of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, the exchange rates for the new won which were communicated at the end of January 2010 have applied as from 1 January 2010. Taking the exchange rates applying at the end of December / beginning of January as a basis, and taking into account the reform of the national currency (100:1), the new won represents a devaluation of 98.7%. |
