# ECB Full MCP for AI Agents AI Agent Connect > ECB Full — Complete Eurozone Financial Intelligence. This Connector gives your agent direct access to the European Central Bank's massive database. It handles everything from live EUR exchange rates and key interest rates like the MRO and DFR to complex yield curves and monetary aggregates like M1 and M3. It's the fastest way to pull official Eurozone economic data without messing with complex API keys. ## Overview - **Category:** the-unthinkable - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_IuAkn6D8BUtAl0zzcpJi149AdCX5pxERDPCtfIWw/ai-agent-connect - **Tags:** monetary-policy, economic-indicators, interest-rates, financial-statistics, eurozone-economy, data-api ## Description This Connector puts the entire European Central Bank data catalog into your agent's hands. Instead of hunting through nested menus or trying to parse messy PDFs, you can ask your agent to grab specific figures on the fly. It handles the heavy lifting for currency conversions, tracking the latest interest rate corridors, and pulling government bond yields across various maturities. If you need to see how money is actually moving in the eurozone, you can pull monetary aggregates or check banknote circulation. It even includes a universal query engine for when you need to dig into specific data points that aren't covered by the standard tools. Getting this level of financial data into your workflow is a core part of why Vinkius is the go-to for serious research. It's built for people who need the actual numbers that drive monetary policy, not just surface-level news. You get the raw data you need to build models or write reports without the headache of manual data collection. Whether you're looking for the latest M1 figures or need to compare the euro against a dozen different currencies at once, the agent does the work for you. You can stop spending your afternoon copying and pasting data from government websites and start using that time to actually interpret what the numbers mean for your work. ## Tools ### list_dataflows Use list_dataflows to see all available ECB statistical dataflows. This helps you find the correct codes for more specific queries. ### query_ecb_data Use query_ecb_data to pull specific datasets using a dataflow code and SDMX series key. It provides universal access to any ECB dataset. ### get_exchange_rate Use get_exchange_rate to find the EUR exchange rate against a specific currency. You can choose daily, monthly, or annual frequencies. ### get_multiple_rates Use get_multiple_rates to compare the euro against several different currencies at once. It's great for quick strength checks. ### get_latest_rates Use get_latest_rates to fetch the most recent ECB reference exchange rates for all supported currencies.

This shows how monetary policy actually reaches the banks. ### get_monetary_aggregate Use get_monetary_aggregate to pull M1, M2, and M3 money supply figures. It's the standard for monitoring eurozone money supply. ### get_yield_curve Use get_yield_curve to find the eurozone government bond yield curve for a specific maturity. It helps you see what the market expects. ### get_yield_curve_snapshot Use get_yield_curve_snapshot to see the entire yield curve at once. It shows the shape of the curve across all maturities. ### get_banknotes Use get_banknotes to fetch statistics on eurozone banknotes in circulation. It covers all denominations from 5 to 500 euros. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` Give me a quick summary of the current ECB interest rate corridor. ``` **Response:** ``` Here are the current key interest rates for the eurozone: * **Main Refinancing Rate (MRO):** 2.65% * **Deposit Facility Rate (DFR):** 2.50% * **Marginal Lending Facility Rate (MLFR):** 2.90% These rates form the current corridor for ECB monetary policy. ``` **Prompt:** ``` What are the latest EUR exchange rates for USD, GBP, and JPY? ``` **Response:** ``` Here are the latest ECB reference exchange rates: | Currency | Rate | | :--- | :--- | | **USD** | 1.0842 | | **GBP** | 0.8567 | | **JPY** | 163.42 | *Rates are based on the latest ECB publication.* ``` **Prompt:** ``` Show me the current eurozone yield curve and the M3 money supply. ``` **Response:** ``` Here is the current eurozone financial snapshot: **Yield Curve Snapshot:** * **3M:** 2.31% * **10Y:** 2.49% * **30Y:** 2.85% * *Status:* The curve is currently showing a normal upward shape. **Monetary Aggregate:** * **M3:** €16,423B (+4.2% YoY) ``` ## Capabilities ### Pull live EUR exchange rates Get the latest rates for over 40 currencies instantly. ### Track key ECB interest rates Retrieve the MRO, DFR, and MLFR rates to see the current policy corridor. ### Analyze government bond yields Get yield curves for specific maturities to see economic expectations. ### Access monetary aggregates Pull M1, M2, and M3 data to monitor the money supply. ### Query any ECB dataset Use the universal query engine to find specific dataflows and series keys. ### Check banknote circulation Get the latest stats on eurozone banknotes in circulation. ## Use Cases ### Checking for yield curve inversion A trader needs to know if the yield curve is inverting.
