โš™๏ธ How It Works

The European Central Bank publishes daily reference exchange rates for the Euro against approximately 45 currencies. The provider queries the ECB Statistical Data Warehouse using the SDMX REST API.

  • Frequency: D (Daily)
  • Series: SP00 (Spot rate)
  • Quotation: Rates are "1 EUR = X foreign currency" โ€” stored directly in LibreFolio's format.
