Our Sources
Below are lists of our most common sources for each country. We try very hard to respect all property rights and proprietary information. We always share a link back to an original source. We read each site's legal notes on sharing their content. Since we are unsure of how to handle photos on some sites, we even use a free photo sharing site for most photos (unless we are clearly allowed to use a photo, like when a private person or event organizer explicitly shares with us.)
Finally, we want to promote the region and promote Trans-Atlantic Relations. So we encourage our readers to visit the original source sites and follow the ones you like. We like and follow them all.

Matlab Code for Exchange Rates
-
DBNomics Matlab code (you must save this in the folder where you run the main Matlab code)
-
The Matlab code generates 2 graphs (Index and Historical) in PNG and 1 Excel file with all the data used in the analysis. An example of the output from our 7 May 2020 posted reports:
-
InvestCEE report for Exchange Rates (PDF) and for Interest Rates (PDF)
-
Excel Files for Exchange Rates and for Interest Rates

For more great R and Matlab code using DBNomics we recommend:

Prof. Gauthier Vermandel's site (this link is to his Finance with Matlab course). He is our source for the DBNomics Matlab code.
