Description: The bilateral exchange rates report the amount of foreign currency that has to be paid to obtain one euro. The nominal effective exchange rates (NEER) are the "broad indices" calculated by the Bank for International Settlements (BIS). They are calculated as geometric weighted averages of bilateral exchange rates. The weighting pattern is time-varying and is based on trade flows. Note that the effective exchange rate of countries using the same currency (euro area countries for example) can be different due to divergent trade patterns.
