View help for Summary
This dataset contains daily and monthly data from 2012 to 2022, capturing exchange rate fluctuations of five major currency pairs: EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/CAD, USD/JPY, and USD/CHF. It is designed to analyze the impact of climate-related events on exchange rate volatility.
In addition to exchange rate data, the dataset includes detailed records of climate disasters in the USA, Eurozone, U.K., Japan, Canada, and Switzerland. These records comprise total estimated economic damage per event and the corresponding Cumulative Abnormal Returns (CARs) calculated around disaster windows to measure financial market reactions.
To provide broader climate context, the dataset also features monthly climate indicators such as average temperature and precipitation changes for each country/region.
This comprehensive dataset enables empirical analyses of how climate shocks affect currency markets and can support research on the intersection of environmental risks and financial stability.
