Sierra Leone redenominates its currency in hopes to reset economy

Al Jazeera, 18 Aug 2022
Sierra Leone is denominating its currency in an attempt to reset the economy.
The central bank has removed three zeros and reprinted leone notes, saying this will reduce the volume of cash people carry around and related risks.
Critics say that won't necessarily help the leone's value.
