Exchange rates are the European Central Bank’s daily euro reference rates, crossed through the euro to give units per dollar, so a currency’s move against the dollar is its move against the euro less the dollar’s own. The real effective exchange rate is the BIS broad index (64 economies, 2020 = 100): a currency against a trade-weighted basket of its partners, adjusted for relative consumer prices, so a reading well below its own ten-year average means the country’s goods have become cheap for the world and a reading well above that they have become dear. The rates behind the currencies are on The world.
