About US Dollar to Brazilian Real Exchange Rate

The Brazilian reals per US dollar exchange rate (FRED series DEXBZUS) measures how many reals one dollar purchases, using the noon buying rate in New York certified by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The daily series begins in 1995, shortly after the Plano Real currency reform that ended the era of Brazilian hyperinflation.

Brazil historically high policy rates make the real a major carry trade currency, and its swings materially affect dollar-based returns on Brazilian assets and inflation dynamics inside Brazil.

How to read it

Interpret moves jointly with commodity indexes and Brazilian policy rate decisions, since carry and terms of trade drive most sustained trends.
