In a direct communication, the source explained:
Following a review of the relevance of the 1990 = 100 ERIs for non-sterling currencies, the Bank took the decision to discontinue the publication of these series from 2 July 2018. This decision reflected the fact that the currency weights for these data remained based on the 1989= 91 trade flows data, and that there now existed an alternative publicly available data source for these ERIs, at daily frequency and with regularly updated currency weights, in the form of the BIS database.
The termination of other series is described in footnotes to the data.
In response, we have archived the series by marking their metadata and catalog entries as "discontinued". Figures are indexes relative to 1990 or percent per annum (%), not seasonally adjusted (NSA). Date ranges vary.
The series reside in the historical catalog (United Kingdom » Financial » Exchange rates » Effective exchange rate indexes) and are:
- BOEXUDLUSGD.IGBR = Effective exchange rate index: US $, (Index 1990 average = 100)
- BOEXUDLADGD.IGBR = Australian dollar
- BOEXUDLCDGD.IGBR = Canadian dollar
- BOEXUDLDKGD.IGBR = Danish krone
- BOEXUDLERGD.IGBR = Euro
- BOEXUDLJYGD.IGBR = Japanese yen
- BOEXUDLNDGD.IGBR = New Zealand dollar
- BOEXUDLNKGD.IGBR = Norwegian krone
- BOEXUDLSKGD.IGBR = Swedish krona
- BOEXUDLSFGD.IGBR = Swiss franc
Also in (United Kingdom » Financial » Interest Rates » Wholesale interest and discount rates):
- BOEIUDVCDAD.IGBR = Sterling certificates of deposit interest rate, (%)
- BOEIUDGROND.IGBR = Gilt repo interest rate, (%) - Overnight
- BOEIUDGR1WD.IGBR = 1 week
- BOEIUDGR2WD.IGBR = 2 weeks
- BOEIUDGR1MD.IGBR = 1 month
- BOEIUDGR3MD.IGBR = 3 month
Because catalog locations are subject to change, the upper-right search box on DataBuffet.com provides a "find in catalog" mode that accepts a mnemonic.
