## Description
MCP server for European financial data — ECB rates, Eurostat inflation, GDP, unemployment. Works with Claude, Cursor, Windsurf.

## Tools
Capabilities this server exposes over MCP:

- **get_ecb_rates** — ECB key interest rates: deposit facility, main refinancing, marginal lending
- **get_euro_exchange** — EUR exchange rates vs any currency — latest or historical by date
- **get_eu_inflation** — HICP inflation rates for all EU countries — annual % change
- **get_eu_gdp** — Quarterly GDP data — growth rate or absolute value, all EU countries
- **get_eu_unemployment** — Monthly unemployment rates — seasonally adjusted, by age group
- **compare_eu_economies** — Side-by-side snapshot: inflation + GDP + unemployment for 2-10 countries

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation

## Documentation

## What nexusforge-tools/mcp-eu-finance does

The nexusforge-tools/mcp-eu-finance MCP server exposes European monetary and macroeconomic data as callable MCP tools. It covers the European Central Bank’s main policy rates, EUR exchange rates, Eurostat inflation, GDP, and unemployment datasets. The package is intended for questions that require structured figures rather than general financial commentary.

Available data includes the ECB deposit facility, main refinancing, and marginal lending rates. Exchange-rate queries return EUR values against a selected currency and can target either the latest available figure or a specific date. Eurostat-backed tools cover annual HICP percentage changes, quarterly GDP figures or growth rates, and seasonally adjusted monthly unemployment by age group.

The comparison tool combines inflation, GDP, and unemployment into a side-by-side view for between two and ten countries. This supports country comparisons without requiring an agent to make separate calls and assemble the results itself.

## How it works

The server communicates over MCP and makes the listed data operations available to compatible clients. The underlying sources identified by the project are ECB SDW for ECB rates, ECB or Frankfurter for exchange rates, and Eurostat for inflation, GDP, and unemployment.

A client can ask for a single indicator, request a historical exchange rate, or compare several EU economies. The tool descriptions indicate that country-level inflation, GDP, and unemployment coverage applies across EU countries. Results depend on the availability and update schedule of those upstream public data sources.

## Setup and configuration

The nexusforge-tools/mcp-eu-finance MCP server can be launched locally from npm with:

```bash
npx -y @nexusforgetools/eu-finance
```

For Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Windsurf, add an MCP entry with `npx` as the command and `-y`, followed by `@nexusforgetools/eu-finance`, as the arguments. Claude Code has a corresponding `claude mcp add` command in the project instructions.

No API key or other credential is listed as required. The README describes the package as free during beta and mentions a future Pro offering with higher rate limits and bundled NexusForge servers; those future terms are not needed for the current local setup.

## Tools and capabilities

- `get_ecb_rates`: Retrieves the ECB deposit facility, main refinancing, and marginal lending rates.
- `get_euro_exchange`: Looks up EUR exchange rates against a requested currency for the latest date or a specified historical date.
- `get_eu_inflation`: Returns annual HICP inflation percentages for EU countries.
- `get_eu_gdp`: Returns quarterly GDP as a growth rate or an absolute value.
- `get_eu_unemployment`: Returns monthly, seasonally adjusted unemployment rates with age-group selection.
- `compare_eu_economies`: Produces a combined inflation, GDP, and unemployment snapshot for 2–10 countries.

These capabilities fit macroeconomic research, country monitoring, and agent workflows that need to compare European economies using consistent indicator categories.

## Limitations and notes

The project does not list authentication settings, custom environment variables, or options for connecting private financial datasets. Its documented scope is European financial and macroeconomic information; it does not claim to provide investment recommendations, portfolio management, or real-time market feeds beyond the supported indicators.

The README labels the software as being free during beta and signals a possible paid Pro tier later. Rate limits, historical coverage details, and exact update timing are not specified in the provided material. Exchange-rate data may come from ECB or Frankfurter, while the other indicators are attributed to ECB or Eurostat sources as described above.
