Measures that can be taken to ensure the stability of a country's currency include introducing strict capital controls, pegging the currency to another stable currency, and maintaining a large external reserve. Currency Board Systems are also used by many countries as an effective tool to ensure the stability of their currencies. Other measures like eliminating fiscal, monetary or investment related policies that undermine exchange rate stability may be taken depending on the situation.

Introducing strict capital controls, as well as implementing regulations on currency trading and establishing an official currency exchange rate can help to stabilize a country's currency. This can be further reinforced by pegging the local currency to another stable foreign currency, such as the US dollar or the Euro. Other methods include increasing public confidence in the local currency by raising awareness on its usefulness and economic potential, or increasing government financial reserves to demonstrate trust in the local money.
