About this data
Real effective exchange rate is the nominal effective exchange rate (a measure of the value of a currency against a weighted average of several foreign currencies) divided by a price deflator or index of costs. This indicator corresponds to the IFS's line rec, and is based on a nominal rate adjusted for relative changes in consumer prices.
