16、ts reservedBS ISO 4217:2015ISO 4217:2015(E)IntroductionThere is a need for a universally applicable code for the identification of currencies. This International Standard is the worldwide recognized multi-industry standard on currency codes based on the list of country names obtained from the United

17、 Nations as described in ISO 3166-1. The ISO 4217 lists of codes are used in banking and business globally in all their various domains of activities. ISO 2015 All rights reserved vBS ISO 4217:2015BS ISO 4217:2015Codes for the representation of currencies1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies

18、the structure for a three-letter alphabetic code and an equivalent three-digit numeric code for the representation of currencies. For those currencies having minor units, it also shows the decimal relationship between such units and the currency itself.The scope of this International Standard also i

19、ncludes funds and precious metals.This International Standard also includes basic guidelines for its maintenance.This International Standard is intended for use in any application of trade, commerce and banking, where currencies and, where appropriate, funds are required to be described. It is desig

20、ned to be equally suitable for manual users and for those employing automated systems.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For u

21、ndated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.ISO 3166-1:2013, Codes for the representation of names of countries and their subdivisions Part 1: Country codes3 Terms and definitionsFor the purposes of this document, the following terms and defini

27、ion and weighting depends on its purpose.4 Principles for inclusion in the lists of codesThe codes represent the names and unit values of currencies or funds used in international financial exchanges. They are mostly derived from the country codes as described in ISO 3166-1 and by monetary authoriti

28、es (for exceptions, see 5.1.4).5 Code structure5.1 Alphabetic code5.1.1 This International Standard provides an alphabetic alpha-3 character (alpha-3) code using combinations, in upper case, of three letters of the 26-character Roman alphabet (ignoring diacritics signs) from the range AAA to ZZZ.5.1

29、.2 The first two characters of the currency code (alpha-2 code) represent the country code as described in ISO 3166-1 (for exceptions, see 5.1.4).5.1.3 The third character of the alphabetic code is an indicator, preferably mnemonic, derived from the name of the major currency unit or fund.5.1.4 Wher

30、e the currency is not associated with a single ISO 3166-1 geographical entity, then the following cases apply:a) In the case of the European Union and the euro, the ISO 3166 Maintenance Agency explicitly accepted to reserve the alpha-2 code element “EU” for the European Union to use “EUR” for the pu

31、rposes of this International Standard.b) In the case that the currency is emitted by a monetary authority, the code shall be allocated by the Maintenance Agency from within the user-assigned range of codes XA to XZ specified in ISO 3166-1:2013, 8.1.3.5.1.5 Where the ISO 3166-1 geographical entity is

32、 not associated with a single currency, then the following case applies:a) In the case that the considered currency is emitted by a national monetary authority and is used by other countries, the code is based on the alpha-2 code of the emitting country, as specified in 5.1.2.5.1.6 Alpha-3 codes tha

33、t have been assigned at any time shall not be re-used.2 ISO 2015 All rights reservedBS ISO 4217:2015ISO 4217:2015(E)5.2 Numeric codeThe numeric currency code is derived, where possible, from the United Nations Standard Country or Area Code. Any additional codes shall be allocated from within the use

34、r-assigned range of codes 900 to 998.6 Minor unitRequirements sometimes arise for values to be expressed in terms of minor units of currency. Currently, when this occurs, it is necessary to know the decimal relationship that exists between the currency concerned and its minor unit. This information

35、is shown in the column headed “Minor unit” in List one (8.1) and List two (8.2). Number 0 and “n.a.” means that there is no minor unit for that currency, whereas number 1, 2, 3, etc. signify a ratio of 10:1, 100:1, 1 000:1, etc. respectively. The names of the minor units are not given.7 Redenominati

36、onThis clause defines currency redenomination which includes the following: amendment to the unit value of a currency; amendment to the minor unit; amendment to the currency name.To reduce the impact on operational systems, in case of a minor unit amendment or a currency name amendment, the alphabet

37、ic and numeric code shall not change unless specifically required by the monetary authority.In case of an amendment to the unit value of a currency, the Maintenance Agency shall assign a new alphabetic and numeric code to the currency, which will enable it to be distinguished from the original unit

38、value of that currency; the name of the currency shall not change unless specifically required by the monetary authority. In such cases, the old and new denominations sometimes run concurrently and usually for a specified period, and, two codes with the same country name would appear in List one (8.

39、1). At the end of the specified period, the original currency code shall be moved to List three (8.3).Every amendment of the alpha-2 or the numeric-3 code in ISO 3166 shall necessarily result in the modification of the corresponding alpha-3, numeric-3 code in ISO 4217.8 ListsThe three lists of codes

40、 of this International Standard are published through the ISO website www.iso.org/iso/currency_codes.8.1 List one: Currency, fund and precious metal codesThis list registers, in alphabetical order of the entities representing currencies, funds and precious metals, the following five columns of data:
