Exchange rates can be displayed in different ways depending on the context. There's the Eastern Caribbean dollar to pound exchange rate, and the Eastern Caribbean dollar buyback rate. The two are in fact the same; they are just displayed differently.
The Eastern Caribbean dollar to pound exchange rate corresponds to the value of one Eastern Caribbean dollar in British pounds. For example, a Eastern Caribbean dollar to pound rate of 0.2857 means one Eastern Caribbean dollar is worth 0.2857 pounds.
In contrast, the Eastern Caribbean dollar buyback rate corresponds to the amount of Eastern Caribbean dollars you'd have to exchange to get one pound. For example, a Eastern Caribbean dollar buyback rate of 3.5 means you'd have to exchange 3.5 Eastern Caribbean dollars to get one pound.
UK currency suppliers prefer to show the Eastern Caribbean dollar buyback rate instead of the Eastern Caribbean dollar to pound exchange rate, so we follow the same format in our Eastern Caribbean dollar comparisons. However, on this page, we use the Eastern Caribbean dollar to pound exchange rate since this is what the data is intended to show.
The two rates are interchangeable: to convert the Eastern Caribbean dollar buyback rate into the actual Eastern Caribbean dollar to pound rate, just divide 1 by the Eastern Caribbean dollar buyback rate, e.g.: 1 / 3.5 = 0.2857.
