Frequently asked questions

Is this real data?
Yes — it comes from the ECB Statistical Data Warehouse and is refreshed on a schedule.

That short-dated bonds yield more than long-dated ones, which usually means the market expects rates to be cut. It is a signal about expectations, not a forecast.
Is a key needed?
No. This source is fully key-less.
Is it free?
Yes — free, no download, in your browser.
