About these numbers

Source: the European Central Bank's euro foreign exchange reference rates (one rate per TARGET working day, usually published around 16:00 CET).
USD/JPY is a cross rate calculated by us: ECB rate of JPY ÷ ECB rate of USD. Monthly and yearly values are simple averages, maxima and minima of those daily values.
The ECB publishes the reference rates for information purposes only and discourages using them for transactions. Market, bank and card rates differ during the day.
