Default Exchange rate for 2013?

Maybe a little premature but does anyone know the average exchange rate euro to pound needed for tax and modelo 720 requirements?

The figure used for the Form 720 is the rate at the end of December.

According to the Bank of Spain it was 0.8337

In actual fact what the bank of spain says is in this case irrelevant, the exchange rate used on the 720 is specified on Boletin number BOE-A-2013-13837. Relevant content pasted from pdf below, sorry for the bad formatting. However you can see it specifies 0.8364.

Irrespective of that, the Form 720 guidance says that it is the value on the 31st December not the 30th which is the rate your gestor quoted.

Since you don't have to quote the rate, just what you have declared as the Euro value, it doesn't make too much difference anyway.
