The XAF/US Dollar exchange rate is influenced by economic conditions in the six Central African countries that use the currency. Because the Central African CFA franc is pegged to the euro, movements in the euro often affect its value against other currencies. Trade, inflation, and commodity exports can also have an impact, particularly in countries where natural resources play an important role in the economy.
