The Bank of England is expected to increase interest rates today.

The obvious move would see the Pound increase in strength, particularly against the Euro.

The aim is to curb rising inflation and the cost of living.

But there’s no guarantee the Pound will strengthen, and some experts are even predicting that it could weaken.

Local elections, continuing leadership challenges to Boris Johnson and economic uncertainty are all looming.

That’s a choppy outlook for the Pound.

So if the pound does rise, it could be wise to move quickly.

The Euro is also still struggling.

It’s had some modest upticks, but they are likely to be small until there are improvements in Ukraine.

The Dollar is still holding firm as the safe-haven currency.

With so much volatility out there, it pays to talk your currency transfer through with one of our representatives.

This week, the US Dollar hit its highest against the Pound since September 2020.

The Pound has struggled against the US Dollar as the US economy looks in better shape than the UK.

What’s more, the US Federal Reserve is expected to raise rates more aggressively than the Bank of England – which will add to Dollar strength.

The Euro has been slightly stronger this week, thanks to Sunday’s French Election results.

Plus, the ECB now seem to have a greater appetite for interest rate increases.

At last, some slight positivity for the Euro!

But with so much going on globally, we expect exchange rates to remain volatile.

If you have a currency transfer in mind, it’s worth discussing your timing with one of our experts.

The Pound’s near 6-year high against the Euro

This is a fantastic opportunity for Pound sellers and Euro buyers.

The main driving force behind this move is Europe’s slow reaction to inflation.

The European Central Bank hinted that it would delay any interest rate hikes.

On the other hand, the UK and US are expected to raise interest rates quickly to combat inflation.

And Europe’s close proximity to Ukraine only adds to the Euro’s instability.

But it’s not all one-way traffic. In the UK there are signs that the economy is slowing.

So, who knows whether this bright spot for the Pound will last long?

A poor economic outlook for the UK has seen the Pound stumble recently.

With all the troubles in the world, investors are gravitating towards safe-haven currencies.

This has led to the Dollar reaching an 18-month high against the Pound.

Inflation is still a red-hot topic.

In the US it’s growing at the fastest rate for over 40 years. The UK isn’t far behind, with inflation hitting 30-year highs.

The general feeling is that global central banks are late in acting to curb inflation.

But the US Fed is being the most aggressive in its efforts – more positivity for the Dollar.

Overall, the Pound is in second place to the Dollar, but still clearly ahead of the slumping Euro.

French elections have helped the Euro rise ever so slightly.

But more sanctions on Russia are brewing, which is ultimately likely to drag it back to reality.

Uncertainty continues to make exchange rates volatile.

If you have a currency transfer in mind, it’s worth discussing it with your account manager.

Their support could be crucial and potentially save you thousands.

US Dollar near 18-month highs

For the Pound, it’s been another bumpy week.

Going forward, inflation and the threat of ‘stagflation’ are likely to keep on throwing big punches.

At present, the Pound seems caught in the middle of a strong Dollar and weak Euro.

In recent weeks, the US Dollar has continued making gains.

In fact, it’s hovering near 18-month highs against the Euro.

The Dollar’s strong position has also been helped by positive US jobs numbers.

With the Euro, to put it bluntly, it’s the opposite.

There’s pressure across the continent for further tough sanctions on Russian oil.

But with Europe dependent on Russian oil, the Euro could well take another dip.

At the moment, the only thing we can bank on is continued volatility.

Which is why it’s important to discuss the right time to exchange your money.
