Dataset: Real Effective Exchange Rate Volatility for West African Monetary Zone

The dataset provides real effective exchange rate volatility series for West African Monetary Zone (WAMZ), which can be reused without restriction. The data covers the whole member nations in WAMZ namely Liberia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Gambia, Ghana and Guinea, and ranges between 1980m1 to 2024m8. The data, therefore, has the potential to be reused for forecasting future unanticipated movements in exchange rates in WAMZ, and also for conducting empirical research relating to exchange rate volatility and trade performance in the region.

本数据集提供了西非货币区（WAMZ）实际有效汇率波动率系列数据，该数据可在无限制的情况下重复使用。数据涵盖了WAMZ所有成员国，包括利比里亚、尼日利亚、塞拉利昂、冈比亚、加纳和几内亚，时间跨度从1980年1月至2024年8月。因此，这些数据具有被用于预测WAMZ未来未预见汇率波动的潜力，同时也可用于进行与该区域汇率波动及贸易表现相关的实证研究。
