What determines the value of a currency?

The simple answer is "supply and demand". But what influences supply and demand?
Interest rates Interest rate differentials between countries are one of the main factors that determine exchange rates. Inflation/money supply if the central bank prints more money inflation goes up and the exchange rate (the price of the currency) goes down. Balance of trade The more other countries want your exports, the stronger your exchange rate. The more you rely on imports, the weaker your exchange rate because you have to sell your currency to pay for someone elses goods. Government budget deficits/surpluses. If the government runs a deficit, it has to borrow money (by selling bonds). If it cant borrow it all from its own citizens, it must sell to foreign investors. That means selling more of its currency, driving the price down.
