Historical Trend of EUR/USD Exchange Rate
The euro, introduced in 2002 with a value of around 1.1686 USD per EUR, has maintained much of its value against the USD since then. The euro initially strengthened due to increased economic integration and reduced currency risk within Europe, boosting GDP growth.
From 2008 to 2014, the EUR/USD rate experienced volatility primarily due to the global financial crisis and European sovereign debt crises. The US Federal Reserve increased interest rates post-2008 crisis, while the European Central Bank (ECB) kept rates low and implemented quantitative easing, affecting the euro’s value relative to the USD.
Political events such as the 2016 Brexit referendum and the 2016 US elections caused significant EUR/USD fluctuations, including a tumble in the exchange rate due to uncertainty around Brexit and US policies. More recently, since 2020, the EUR/USD rate has fluctuated generally between approximately 1.10 and 1.20 USD per Euro with some short-term volatility related to economic policies and global events.
