The Boliviano has been pegged to the USD at approximately 6.91 BOB/USD for over a decade. Bolivia also holds significant silver and lithium reserves.

The managed exchange rate provides USD stability, but gold offers additional protection against potential devaluation if peg sustainability weakens.
