Buy Dollars - United States - American Dollar - USD

The Euro/Dollar (EUR/USD) exchange rate represents the relative value of the euro against the US dollar. As one of the most heavily traded currency pairs on the foreign exchange market, it is closely followed by investors, traders and economists worldwide. This rate fluctuates according to various economic, political and social factors, such as monetary policy decisions by the European Central Bank (ECB) and the US Federal Reserve (Fed), published economic data and geopolitical events.

Fluctuations and economic implications

Fluctuations in the EUR/USD rate have a direct impact on transatlantic trade. When the euro is strong against the dollar, European exports become more expensive for American buyers. Conversely, a strong dollar favors European imports of American products. These exchange rate movements determine the competitiveness of companies and guide trade flows. Our Abacor experts note that French companies adapt their import-export strategies to these variations.

Factors influencing exchange rates

Monetary policy decisions by the European Central Bank (ECB) and the US Federal Reserve (Fed) are the main drivers of EUR/USD fluctuations. Policy rates create interest rate differentials that attract capital flows. Macroeconomic indicators such as inflation and GDP growth also guide market expectations.

Rates as a monetary reference

This rate is often used as a benchmark to assess the economic health of the two currency zones, the European Union and the United States, and can have important implications for international trade, tourism and foreign investment. Recent fluctuations in the EUR/USD rate show a tendency towards volatility, with notable peaks and troughs reflecting current economic uncertainties.

US Dollar Exchange Notes

Although American banknotes have evolved several times in history, the majority of denominations, although different from the most recent, are still legal tender. However, retailers refuse to accept them because of their outdated security systems. With our detection equipment, we are able to exchange American dollars dating back to 1861.

Note that $10,000, $5,000, $1,000 and $500 bills, last issued in 1934, exist and are legal tender, but are gradually being withdrawn from circulation. There were also $100,000 banknotes before the Second World War, reserved for transfers between American financial institutions.
