Description
bbk provides a unified R interface for accessing data from major central banks, including the Deutsche Bundesbank, European Central Bank, Swiss National Bank, and Bank of England. Central bank data is widely used in economic research and financial modeling, yet each institution exposes its own API with different conventions, making reproducible data access cumbersome. bbk abstracts over these differences, providing a consistent interface. In this talk, we will give a brief overview of bbk's design and demonstrate how it simplifies access to central bank time series for research and analysis. https://github.com/m-muecke/bbk
