On the territory of modern New Zealand, money as a means of payment arose in the middle of the 17th century, when the first Europeans penetrated the islands. But at that time, the monetary system was chaotic and inflation reigned in the country. Because of the coins being from different countries, there was no single exchange rate and, in general, the monetary system did not exist at all.
At the next historical stage in the middle of the 19th century, the territory within the borders of today’s New Zealand became part of the British and French empires. The monetary system was stabilized, although it was not New Zealand’s money. The first New Zealand dollar was issued in 1840 by the United Australian Bank, but at those times, the currency wasn’t recognized as a means of payment.
At the beginning of the 20th century, a New Zealand pound appeared under the new monetary policy. From 1907 to 1934, it was being issued by private banking institutions. In 1936, the National Reserve Bank of the country was nationalized, and immediately began to issue banknotes. Finally, in 1967, NZD made its first appearance, the rate of which was tied to the American Dollar.
