About Israeli Shekel and Bulgarian Lev
Used in: Israel, Palestinian Territories
The new Israeli shekel (NIS) was introduced in 1985, replacing the hyperinflated old shekel at 1000:1. Israel's economy has transformed into a high-tech hub — 'Start-Up Nation' — with significant tech export revenues supporting the shekel.
Israel has one of the highest concentrations of tech startups per capita in the world. ILS is influenced by tech sector performance, US relations, and geopolitical events in the Middle East region.
Used in: Bulgaria
The Bulgarian lev ('lion') was introduced in 1880. After severe financial crisis in 1997, Bulgaria introduced a currency board pegging the lev first to the Deutschmark and then to the Euro. Bulgaria joined the EU in 2007.
BGN is pegged to EUR at exactly 1.95583 since 1999, when Bulgaria adopted the Euro as the peg anchor following the DEM. Bulgaria is in the ERM II and is working toward full Euro adoption.

Converting Israeli Shekel to Bulgarian Lev — Tips
Forex market liquidity peaks between 3–4 PM GMT (London–New York overlap). Converting during this window typically gives tighter spreads. Avoid weekends — markets are closed and Monday opening rates can gap significantly.
Tuesdays–Thursdays generally show the most stable rates. Monday mornings can be volatile as markets digest weekend news. Friday afternoons often see positioning ahead of weekend closures.
If you need to convert a large amount, monitor the rate and set an alert for your target. Rates can vary 1–3% within a month — on $10,000 that's $100–300 difference.
About the ILS/BGN Exchange Rate
The Bulgarian Lev is pegged to the EUR since 1999, so changes in the ILS/BGN rate primarily reflect movements in the ILS/EUR rate. The peg provides stability on the BGN side of the pair.
