Cayman Island Flag



The Cayman Islands is a British overseas territory located in the western Caribbean Sea. The territory comprises the islands of Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac, and Little Cayman, located south of Cuba and northwest of Jamaica. The territory is a major offshore financial centre in the Caribbean.

The first Cayman Islands currency was issued in 1971. There were four denominations of paper currency (the $25, $10, $5 and $1 banknotes) and four coins in 25¢, 10¢, 5¢ and 1¢ denominations. In 1981, two new denominations of banknotes, the $100 and the $40, were issued. The $50 was introduced in 1985.
The issue of currency is accomplished through dealings with the local retail banks. These banks are Butterfield, FirstCaribbean International Bank, Scotiabank (Cayman Islands) Ltd., Fidelity Bank (Cayman) Ltd., Cayman National Bank Ltd, the Royal Bank of Canada and HSBC Cayman.
