Safe Haven Currency
(redirected from Safe Haven Currencies)

A currency that investors trust more than others and which they therefore buy in times of uncertainty. Safe haven currencies are considered low risk because their issuing governments are stable and their economies tend to be strong, among other reasons. Examples of safe haven currencies include the U.S. dollar and the British pound.
