More Information
The Qatar Central Bank was originally the Qatar Monetary Agency, founded in 1971 when that country separated from the United Arab Emirates and disengaged itself from British monetary policy which the area had previously followed. On August 5 of 1993 it became the Qatar Central Bank. Over its history the Qatar Central Bank has increasingly worked in association with other, larger central banks to achieve a stable currency for the country, most recently and notably with the Monetary Authority of Singapore.
