<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> The BOJ governor, Mr Derick Latibeaudiere, in defending the need for a new note, <span style="font-style: italic">said that an internationally accepted principle was that the highest denomination in a country should account for no more than 60 per cent of the total value of the notes in circulation, and that Jamaica had exceeded this limit for some time,</span> hence the decision to introduce the new note.
<span style="font-weight: bold">He added that "Available data indicate that Jamaica's highest denomination should be in the region of $8,000". </span>Should we need any time soon to introduce say a $10,000 note, assuming that no prime minister dies in the interim or no new national hero is named, we might run out of candidates for the currency.
