About the Brazilian Real
- The Real was introduced in 1994 as part of the Plano Real, the reform that finally ended decades of hyperinflation in Brazil.

- As an emerging-market currency, the Real can move sharply with commodity exports such as soybeans, iron ore, and oil.
What moves the Brazilian Real
The Brazilian Real (BRL) is most influenced by Banco Central do Brasil policy rates (Selic), commodity exports, and emerging-market risk appetite. Because CurrencyPro shows an informational reference rate, the figures here can differ from the rate your bank or payment provider applies when a transaction actually settles.
