Converting your currency

Traveling abroad or purchasing something online from a country outside the U.S.?

You can use the Currency Converter to figure out the exchange rate for many types of currency. It can give you the conversion rate not only from US dollars but there are also over 150 types of currency to choose from.

For instance, how many pesos would equal $20.00 in Mexico? As of today, that would be nearly 260 pesos (259.7 to be exact).

Additionally, the Market Analysis section gives you an overall view of the North American, European, and Asian markets.

With the Quick Links, you can get a current and historical rate table.

This is an invaluable tool for travel and can be accessed by going to www.slcl.org, click on Research, click Geography and Travel, and then click on Currency Converter. Select the amount, the currency and the currency you would like it converted to then click the arrow; your conversion will appear.

Happy Travels and Conversions!
