Haitian Gourdes (HTG)
The Haitian Gourde is the official currency of Haiti, abbreviated as HTG in forex markets. It is subdivided into 100 centimes and is managed by the Bank of the Republic of Haiti. HTG pairs are considered exotic currency pairs with low liquidity and higher spreads.
Example
“A forex trader checking USD/HTG notices the pair is quoted at 132.50, meaning one U.S. dollar buys 132.50 Haitian Gourdes.”
