CLF - Chilean Unit of Account UF currency

Chile flag Chile

The Chilean Unit of Account (CLF), also known as the Unidad de Fomento (UF), is a unique financial unit used in Chile. Unlike traditional currencies, the UF is not a physical currency but an inflation-indexed unit that adjusts daily based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI). The Central Bank of Chile manages this system to protect long-term contracts, loans, and mortgages from inflation. As a result, many Chileans conduct large financial transactions, such as real estate purchases and business contracts, in UF rather than the Chilean Peso (CLP). The value of the UF fluctuates to maintain its purchasing power, making it a crucial tool for financial stability in Chile.
