The Bermuda Monetary Authority replaced the Bermuda Government as the issuing authority in 1969, giving the territory its own central banking apparatus while the currency remained pegged one-to-one with the US dollar — a parity that has held without interruption. De La Rue's involvement with Bermudian currency stretches back decades, and the 1996 series continued that relationship without incident.
P#43 carries the signatures of M. H. Burrows as Chairman and David E. Simmons as Finance Minister, the latter also serving as Attorney General at the time — an unusual concentration of offices for a single signatory.
