How it works

How Exchange Rates Work in Angola

Exchange rates in Angola's formal market are set by commercial banks based on the reference rate published by the National Bank of Angola (Instruction No. 16/2019) and on foreign currency supply and demand conditions. Each bank sets and publishes its own buy and sell rates, which may be updated throughout the day.

1
BNA reference

The National Bank of Angola publishes the kwanza's reference rate (Instructive no. 16/2019).

2
Each bank sets its own rate

Based on that reference and on currency supply and demand, each bank sets — and publishes — its own buy and sell rates, which can change throughout the day.

3
Hourly comparison

cambio.ao gathers the rates of 19 banks and compares them in one place, updating the information every hour.

Informational

Informal Market — Kinguila Rate

The word kinguila comes from the Kimbundu kukingila ("to wait for") and refers to the person — traditionally women — who buys and sells foreign currency on the streets of Angola, outside the formal banking system. By extension, the "kinguila rate" or simply "kinguila today" refers to the exchange rate offered in this informal market, which can vary by area, time of day and individual negotiation with each trader.

cambio.ao presents the kinguila rate solely as an informational reference for comparison with commercial bank rates. All currency exchange operations must be carried out exclusively through institutions authorized by the National Bank of Angola, in accordance with the Exchange Law (Law No. 5/97).
