Introduction
Currency and banks
In Nicaragua the currency is the Nicaraguan córdoba (C$), named after the Spanish conquistador Francisco Hernández de Córdoba who founded the two Nicaraguan cities of León and Granada. The córdoba is divided into 100 centavos. Although the country has it’s own currency, the American dollar is widely accepted.
