Comptoirs Francais Du Pacifique Franc (XPF)

The CFP Franc is the official currency used in French overseas collectivities in the Pacific: French Polynesia, New Caledonia, and Wallis and Futuna, abbreviated as XPF in forex markets. It is pegged to the euro at a fixed exchange rate.

Example

Forex traders monitoring XPF movements noted its stability against the euro due to the fixed peg, making it less volatile than freely floating Pacific currencies.
