I don't know how you pool exchange rates for different counties --
aren't they all in different units? -- but I assume that you do.
This is easiest whenever calculation pivots on
sum of all others = sum of all - this value.
For an attempt at a more systematic approach to other possibilities, see

I am attempting to measure how credit rating news for a single entity affects the exchange rates for other entities. It is a fairly basic thought. Measuring the effect of a credit rating news announcement on an entity's 'own' exchange rate it simple enough. I merely run a fixed effects regression on my panel data and bingo. But in reading the articles on the subject they state that their methodology is to pool the exchange rate changes of all countries that are not the event country. This would be easy enough if all I wanted was to see how one of my 79 entities affected the others, but I want to run a regression for all 79 entities at once, seeing the general effects that these entities have on the 'non-event' countries.
