&lt;p>Saudi riyal peg 3.75 per USD means SAMA fixes one US dollar at SAR 3.75 and defends that exchange rate through dollar reserves, bank liquidity, and interest-rate alignment with the Federal Reserve. The Riyal (SAR) is the official currency of Saudi Arabia, issued by the Saudi Central Bank and subdivided into 100 halalas. Banknotes circulate in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, 200, and 500 Riyals, while coins trade in 1, 5, 10, 25, and 50 halala denominations alongside 1 and 2 Riyal coins. In February 2025, the Kingdom unveiled a new official Riyal symbol designed to reinforce the currency&amp;rsquo;s distinct identity in international markets.&lt;/p></description></item></channel></rss>
