revalue

Adjust currency worth

Revalue means to assess the worth of something again, typically resulting in a new or different valuation.

In economics and finance, it specifically refers to adjusting a currency's exchange rate upward relative to other currencies or a standard like gold—the opposite of devalue.

The central bank revalued the yuan after months of pressure.

More broadly, people revalue things when circumstances prompt reconsideration: The crisis made her revalue what mattered most in life.
