About the Mauritian Rupee
The Mauritian rupee was introduced in 1876 under British colonial rule, replacing a mix of earlier Indian, French, and Spanish coinage that had circulated on the island, and it has remained Mauritius's currency through independence in 1968 to today. The rupee floats freely and has generally been one of the more stable currencies in the region, supported by Mauritius's diversified economy spanning tourism, financial services, and textiles.
