Financial market data (BBMF1) is an official time series dataset published by the Deutsche Bundesbank, Germany's central bank, as part of its statistical time series databases. It is distributed through an SDMX 2.1 REST endpoint supporting XML (SDMX-ML), CSV, and JSON output formats. Users can retrieve specific series using a key path along with startPeriod, endPeriod, and lastNObservations filters, allowing precise extraction of financial market indicators over selected time ranges. The dataset supports analysis of German financial market conditions and is freely accessible without authentication.Financial market data (BBMF1) — official time series from the Deutsche Bundesbank, published as the BBMF1 dataflow over SDMX 2.1 REST.
