Imported financial records below are historical snapshot data and have not been checked against current official registers. ## H.10 Data Correction: All Currencies and Dollar Indexes Affected The Federal Reserve's H.10 Foreign Exchange Rates release published on August 10, 2026 contained incorrect data for all currencies and all dollar indexes for the reference date of August 3, 2026 (Source: Federal Reserve H.10 Feed, 2026-08-12). The error affected every currency series and every dollar index included in that release — no individual series was spared. Users who downloaded or cited the August 10, 2026 H.10 release should treat all August 3, 2026 figures from that snapshot as unreliable and replace them with the corrected values. ## Correction Timeline and Scope The Federal Reserve resolved the technical issue and published corrected data on August 12, 2026 — 2 calendar days after the erroneous August 10, 2026 release (Source: Federal Reserve H.10 Feed, 2026-08-12). The correction covered 2 distinct data assets: (1) the H.10 statistical release itself, and (2) the corresponding entries in the Federal Reserve's Data Download Program (DDP). Any automated pipeline or institutional database that ingested the August 10, 2026 H.10 release must be re-pulled against the August 12, 2026 corrected version to ensure data integrity. ## Implications for Data Users and Compliance Records Institutions relying on Federal Reserve H.10 exchange rate data for valuation, transfer pricing, or regulatory reporting must verify that their records reflect the August 12, 2026 corrected release rather than the August 10, 2026 erroneous release (Source: Federal Reserve H.10 Feed, 2026-08-12). The affected reference date is August 3, 2026 only; no other dates within the H.10 series are noted as impacted by this technical issue. The Data Download Program was updated in parallel with the H.10 release correction, providing a single authoritative source for re-verification. Note: the underlying license and publication authority information for the H.10 series is drawn from the imported source snapshot and has not been independently verified line-by-line. ## Key Metrics and Correction Summary Table | Field | Detail | |---|---| | Erroneous Release Date | August 10, 2026 | | Affected Reference Date | August 3, 2026 | | Scope of Error | All currencies and all dollar indexes | | Correction Published Date | August 12, 2026 | | Days to Correction | 2 calendar days | | Secondary System Corrected | Data Download Program (DDP) | | Source | Federal Reserve H.10 Feed (2026-08-12) | [Source](http://www.federalreserve.gov/feeds/H10.html#3940) ## FAQ ### Which specific currencies were affected?
