Currency Change Against the US Dollar by Country

How much each currency gained or lost against the US dollar over the last completed calendar year, comparing that year's average rate with the year before. For currencies with monthly data the average is taken over the twelve month-end rates; where only an annual figure is published (World Bank official rate), that annual average is used. Exchange rates themselves are not comparable across currencies, so this ranks the change, not the rate. Above zero means the currency strengthened. Euro area members share the euro and appear once, as the Eurozone.
