	Brazilian real - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The real (pronounced hey-ahl) (plural réis) was the currency used by the first Portuguese settlers to arrive in the then New World, but the first official money to circulate bearing the name "real" was actually printed in 1654 by the Dutch, during their occupation of part of the Brazilian Northeast.
		The real was affected by inflation during its long lifespan and the base currency unit shifted from one real to mil réis (one thousand réis) and to one conto de réis (one million réis) in the final years of the República Velha era.
		The real (plural reais) was implemented on 1 July 1994, during the presidency of Itamar Franco, when Fernando Henrique Cardoso was the Minister of Finances, as part of a broader plan to stabilize the Brazilian economy, known as Plano Real, substituting the short-lived cruzeiro real.

		The real par value refers to the purchasing power value of the Millennium Dollar™; or such other real financial instruments, that may be denominated in the real currency unit.

	INFLATION in BRAZIL
		By 1942 the currency that devalued so much that the Vargas government instituted a monetary reform, changing the currency to cruzeiros (crosses) at a value of 1000 to 1.
		In this way, by changing the currency, they avoided the embarrasment of having 1,000,000 notes which would really make the monetary policy team in Brasilia look like it was incompetent.
		It is very hard to calaculate exactly the amount of inflation for a period, because the official indicators do not reflect reality, and because inflation is a complex phenomena that has many aspects, even if all related to the amount of money in circulation.

	Brazil's real could fall further - Jan. 22, 1999
		It was the first time the monetary authority had stepped in to support the currency since it let the real float a week ago after failing to engineer a controlled devaluation.
		The Central Bank's intervention came one day after the real had tumbled 7.6 percent to close at an all-time low of 1.72 to the dollar, due to a depletion of dollars in the market and amid a tidal wave of dollar outflows.
		The action brought the newly floated real currency back from an opening quote of 1.74 per dollar to 1.65, but by mid-morning it had slipped back to around 1.70.
