Zambian kwacha (ZMW)
1 articleZambia's current kwacha is identified by ISO code ZMW and is issued within the monetary framework of the Bank of Zambia. Banknotes and coins circulate in kwacha and ngwee denominations, supporting domestic prices, accounts and cash payments. ZMW replaced the former ZMK code through redenomination, so historical figures must be tied to the correct scale. The current kwacha is a national currency rather than the earlier monetary version or the similarly named Malawian kwacha.
