Le 10 Valute Più Economiche Al Mondo

In a world where economic stability is a key sign of national strength, some currencies continue to struggle due to inflation, political instability, and economic mismanagement. A weak currency refers to a nation's currency that has seen its value decline relative to other currencies. Weak currencies are often considered to be those of nations with poor economic fundamentals or governance systems. There are many factors that can cause currency depreciation, including central bank intervention, increased imports, decreased export revenue, changes in inflation rates, and political instability. Below in this article, you will find the list of the 10 weakest currencies in the world in 2025.
Lebanese Pound
The Lebanese pound is the official currency of the Republic of Lebanon. It was formerly divided into 100 piastres, but due to high inflation during the Lebanese Civil War (1975-1990), the sub-units were discontinued. On February 1, 2023, Lebanon lowered its official exchange rate for the first time in 25 years, reducing it by 90%. Despite this significant change, the local currency remains significantly undervalued compared to its market value.

Iranian Riyal
The riyal is the currency of Iran. It is divided into 100 dinars, but due to the low current value of the riyal, no fractions of it are used. The Iranian parliament approved a proposal to remove a zero from the end of the number, replacing the rial with a new currency called the toman, the name of a previous Iranian currency, at a rate of 1 toman = 10,000 rials. As of 2025, the Iranian rial is the second least valuable currency in the world, worth more than only the Lebanese pound but less than the Sierra Leonean leone or the Laotian kip.

Vietnamese Dong
The Dong has been the currency of Vietnam since May 3, 1978. The currency is issued by the State Bank of Vietnam, and is divided into 10 hào. However, the hào has such a low value that it is not issued. The Dong was also the currency of the predecessor states of North Vietnam and South Vietnam, having replaced the previously used French Indochinese piastre.
The Dong is ranked third on the list of the world's weakest currencies, mainly due to restrictions on foreign exchange, which has also slowed in terms of volume. The country's central bank has also devalued the Dong in recent years, as part of efforts to boost exports.

- Coins - 200, 500, 1,000, 2,000, 5,000 Dong

Laotian Kip
The kip has been the currency of Laos since 1952. The Lao kip is one of the weakest global currencies due to high inflation, slow economic growth and growing external debt. Several factors have contributed to this decline, most notably the country's trade deficit, which relied heavily on imports of a significant portion of fuel and food, with the country facing its third consecutive month of trade deficit in the first three months of this year.
- Country - Laos
- Code - LAK
- Banknotes - 500, 1000, 2000, 5000, 10,000, 20,000, 50,000, 100,000 kip

Sierra Leone Lion
The Sierra Leonean leone is the currency of Sierra Leone. The currency is divided into 100 cents. The Sierra Leonean leone (SLL) is similar to the Laotian kip in that its value has been affected by a combination of factors. These include high levels of debt and inflation, and slow economic growth, as well as the lasting effects of major health crises such as the Ebola virus outbreak.
- Country - Sierra Leone
- Code - SLL
- Coins - 1, 5, 10, 25, 50 cents

Indonesian Rupiah
The rupiah (rupiah) is the currency of Indonesia, issued and controlled by Bank Indonesia. The symbol used on all banknotes and coins is "Rp", and the name is derived from the Indian currency, the rupiah. The Indonesian rupiah is divided into 100 sen, although inflation has made all coins and banknotes denominated in sen obsolete.
The Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) is one of the weakest currencies in the world due to two main factors. These are high inflation and fears that the economy may enter a recession. Both of these factors depress the currency, despite the fact that Indonesia is one of the largest countries in Southeast Asia in terms of GDP.
- Country - Indonesia
- Code - IDR
- Coins - Rp 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000
- Banknotes - Rp 1000, 2000, 5000, 10,000, 20,000, 50,000, 100,000

Uzbekistan I know
Som is the official currency of Uzbekistan. Uzbekistan replaced the ruble with the som at par on July 16, 1994. Initially, no subdivisions of this som were issued and only banknotes were issued. Despite Uzbekistan having significant oil and gas reserves, the Uzbek som (UZS) has continued to struggle in recent years. This is likely due to factors such as high unemployment, high inflation, low economic growth and corruption issues.

- Coins - 50, 100, 200, 500, 1,000 som

Paraguayan Guarani
The Guarani is the currency of Paraguay. The guarani used to be divided into 100 céntimos, but due to inflation, the céntimo is no longer in use.

Ariary Malagasy
The Malagasy ariary is the currency of Madagascar. It is the only currency in circulation other than the Mauritanian ouguiya with non-decimal fractions, each ariary being divided into 5 iraimbilanja. The names ariary and iraimbilanja are derived from the pre-colonial currency, with ariary being the name of a silver dollar. Madagascar's currency suffered a significant decline in value around 2009, caused by a combination of natural disasters, political instability, and the fallout from the global financial crisis. The situation has only gotten worse in recent years - the MGA has been weakened by high inflation and the reluctance of foreign investors to invest in Madagascar.
- Country - Madagascar
- Code - MGA
- Coins - 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 ariary
- Banknotes - 100, 200, 500, 1000, 5000, 10,000, 20,000 ariary
