🇮🇸 About the Icelandic Krona (ISK)

The Icelandic Krona is the currency of Iceland, a small island economy driven by tourism, fishing, and aluminium smelting. Its small size makes the krona one of the more volatile floating currencies.

Issuing authority: Central Bank of Iceland (Seðlabanki Íslands).

🇯🇵 About the Japanese Yen (JPY)

The Japanese Yen is the third most traded currency and the most traded in Asia. It is widely used as a funding currency for the carry trade because of Japan's traditionally low interest rates, and it strengthens as a safe haven in times of market stress.

Issuing authority: Bank of Japan (BOJ).

What Moves the ISK/JPY Exchange Rate?

The ISK to JPY rate reflects the relative strength of two different economies, so it responds to developments on both sides of the pair.

Icelandic Krona (ISK): Tourism revenue, fishing and aluminium exports, central bank policy, and the small size of the currency market.

Japanese Yen (JPY): Bank of Japan ultra-loose monetary policy and any shift away from it, the interest rate gap with the US, and safe-haven demand during global risk-off periods.

When demand for the Icelandic Krona rises relative to the Japanese Yen, the ISK/JPY rate increases, meaning each ISK buys more JPY. The opposite happens when the Japanese Yen strengthens.
