Israel Macro Data Board
Israeli new shekel — tech-export currency shaped by Bank of Israel policy and regional risk.
The Israeli new shekel (ILS) is the official currency of Israel. Strong technology and services exports, a sizeable current-account surplus and large foreign-exchange reserves support the currency, while regional security events can drive sharp risk-premium moves.

Israel macro brief
The highest-signal pages for Israel include Central Bank Policy Rate, Inflation Rate (CPI/HICP), Gross Domestic Product (GDP), 10-Year Government Bond Yield, with each page linking back to the source metadata, release history, and API endpoint.
The Bank of Israel's Monetary Committee announces eight interest-rate decisions a year and targets annual CPI inflation within a 1–3% range. The Bank has also used foreign-exchange purchases and sales to moderate large shekel moves.
For ILS research, combine the country-level release map with the USD/ILS dashboard, release calendar, and API reference so macro events, source metadata, and FX context stay connected.
The pages below are organized by indicator rather than API route. That keeps the public website useful for research while still preserving the versioned API contract for developers.
- Bank of Israel interest-rate decision.
- Israel CPI release.
- Bank of Israel foreign-exchange reserve disclosures.
- GDP and labour-market releases.
- USD/ILS as the main trading pair.
