Example prompt: What's the BIS nominal broad effective exchange rate index for Turkey (TR) for the last 6 months? I need the monthly values in the base-2020=100 index from the BIS broad basket.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need the BIS-official nominal broad effective exchange rate index for a country (64-economy basket, 2020=100 base), especially for macroeconomic analysis, trade competitiveness assessments, or policy monitoring. Prefer this over bilateral FX rate endpoints when you need a multilateral, trade-weighted measure rather than a single currency pair. It is authoritative as it draws directly from the BIS statistics API.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid country code returns an error (required parameter)
- Unsupported or unrecognized ISO country code may return no data from BIS
- Months parameter out of range (>24 or <1) may cause an error or default behavior
- BIS API downstream outage may result in stale or failed response
- Some small economies may not be covered in the BIS 64-economy broad basket

## How this service works

BIS (Bank for International Settlements) nominal broad effective exchange rate for one country: monthly index values (base 2020 = 100 as published), latest months first, from the BIS statistics API. Broad basket of 64 economies; not a bilateral rate.

## Output

A JSON object containing the country code, a descriptive title (e.g. 'Turkey - Nominal - Broad (64 economies)'), an array of monthly index values with their period labels (YYYY-MM), the latest period covered, the BIS source URL, and a timestamp of when the data was last checked.
