anchored

The literal translation sounded fine to me, and checking on google seems to confirm this. An alternative which also appears is *anchored on*

"more currencies anchor to the dollar than to the euro" www.sml.hw.ac.uk/dc34/euro_dollar_anchors.pdf

pegged

currency pegged to the dollar.

The Brazilian real was pegged to the dollar until January 1999, when the government decided to abandon the peg and devalue the real.
To peg a currency means it is not free-floating, but set at a fixed rate or range to another currency.
