Hi,
As for the capitalization, there you go:
https://www.braze.com/docs/user_guide/personalization_and_dynamic_content/liquid/liquid_use_cases#misc-capitalize-words-string

For the currency, you can use a liquid that would refer to the attribute/property and convert it via case logic:

{% assign currency_code = "USD" %}

{% case currency_code %}
{% when 'USD' %}
$
{% when 'EUR' %}
€
{% when 'GBP' %}
£
{% else %}
{{ currency_code }} 
{% endcase %}

You can use the currency code as a default fallback.  

Here you can pick the currency codes:

    Thanks for your help here!  DanyWillis DavidO (video was really great!) - I really appreciate it. My reply has been slow as I've been learning more about liquid. I seem to have got that working, but i'm a little stumped now on how to use the filter 'join' to make sure the currency symbol isn't orphaned from the number. Also, is there a way to put the symbol at the front for some currencies and at the end for others? I've been scouring the guides but I cant seem to figure this out. Thank you in advance.

      And the liquid would help:

      {% assign CurrencyIsoCode = {{custom_attribute.${CurrencyIsoCode}}}%}

      {% case CurrencyIsoCode %}
      {% when 'EUR' %}
      €
      {% when 'GBP' %}
      £

      {% when 'CZK' %}
      Kč

      {% when ‘DKK %}
      kr

      {% when ‘SEK %}
      kr
      {% endcase %}

      {{custom_attribute.${Total_Repaid__c} | round | number_with_delimiter}}
