Fetch the latest or historical Euro foreign exchange reference rates from the European Central Bank (ECB).
Value
A data.table::data.table() with the exchange rates.
Details
Note you can achieve the same by calling the ecb_data() function with the right
parameters for each currency.
The reference rates are usually updated at around 16:00 CET every working day, except on TARGET closing days.
They are based on the daily concertation procedure between central banks across Europe, which normally takes place around 14:10 CET. The reference rates are published for information purposes only. Using the rates for transaction purposes is strongly discouraged.
