Exchange Rates

I wanted the exchange rate between New Zealand dollar and Singapore dollar for the past three years.

I searched Google and provided the keywords SGD and NZD. It showed a list of websites. I chose the yahoo.com finance website and clicked on Exchange Rates.

http://sg.finance.yahoo.com/currency/convert?amt=1&from=NZD&to=SGD&submit=Convert

By selecting the two currency codes, I was able to get the exchange rate for up to 5 years. It was very helpful.

I am discovering each day, the wonders of the Internet.

It would be even faster if you know the currency codes beforehand. You can just type "convert 1 nzd to sgd" (without the double quotes) in google's search box and you get instant conversion rate!

The MAS website under financial databases have more than 20 years of exchange rate data, as early as 1984 all under one roof. Also got interest rates, etc.
