History

The Central Bank of Belize was established on January 1, 1982, by the Central Bank of Belize Act No. 15.
The Central Bank is the natural successor to the Monetary Authority of Belize, established from 1976 to 1981, and the Board of Commissioners of Currency running from 1894. The latter is responsible for the devaluation crisis that led to the nationalist movement of the 1950s.
