The real exchange rate (RER) is the purchasing power of a currency relative to another at current exchange rates and prices. It is the ratio of the number of units of a given country's currency necessary to buy a market basket of goods in the other country, after acquiring the other country's currency in the foreign exchange market, to the number of units of the given country's currency that would be necessary to buy that market basket directly in the given country.

Measuring the Real Exchange Rate1. Introduction. The real exchange rate is an important concept in economics. It is a broad summary measure of the prices of one country’s goods and services relative to those of another country or group of countries, and is thus an important consideration when analysing macroeconomic conditions in open economies.

Example of Real exchange rate. Suppose there is just one good that is traded. If the good costs £100 in the UK and $100 in the US. The real exchange rate is 1:1; If the nominal exchange rate was £1 = $1. Then the real exchange rate is the same as the nominal exchange rate. There is perfect purchasing power parity (PPP). The International Monetary Fund defines REER as an average of the bilateral real exchange rates between a country and its trading partners, weighted by their respective trade shares.
