AUD to CAD Forecast & Outlook

18 Jun 2026 • 00:24 GMT

AUD/CAD 0.9901

📊 Forecast snapshot

  • Near-term bias: 🟡 Range-bound, upside bias
  • Expected range: 0.9770 – 0.9950
  • Dominant driver: ⚖️ Interest-rate differentials
  • 3-month trend: 🟢 Uptrend

Currently, AUD/CAD is trading near 7-day highs around 0.9901, slightly above its 3-month average of 0.979. The pair remains supported by the rate differential, with Australia's steady hold on rates and risk-on market mood. Over the next few sessions, the pair may stay within its recent range but could face limited upside unless Australian rates move higher or risk sentiment shifts. Near-term conditions suggest the pair may remain supported, holding near current levels.

💸 Transfer implications

  • Expats: sending money to Canada may find conditions broadly stable, with current levels still supporting favourable conversion.
  • Travellers: exchanging CAD cash may experience relatively supportive rates, though upside potential remains limited.
  • Businesses: paying CAD invoices in AUD could face conditions that remain slightly supportive but may also cap near recent highs.

🧭 Key drivers

  • Rate gap: Australia’s steady rates versus Canada's economic challenges maintain the narrow yield differential.
  • Risk/commodities: Risk-on sentiment continues to support risk-sensitive FX, including AUD and CAD.
  • Global factors: Oil price fluctuations and divergence in US-Canada economic outlooks influence the pair.

⚠️ What could change it

  • Upside risk: Unexpected Australian rate hikes or worsening Canadian economic conditions could lift AUD/CAD.
  • Downside risk: A shift to risk-off conditions or rising Canadian oil prices might pressure the pair.

BER suggests comparing FX providers as finding lower margins can help offset less favourable exchange conditions.

 

AUDCAD Bank Forecasts to end of the year

The long-term outlook for AUDCAD is mixed as it approaches the end of 2026. The National Australia Bank (NAB) sees the pair rising to 0.94 by mid-2026, which suggests room for appreciation through the end of the year, supported by ongoing rate hikes from the Reserve Bank of Australia. However, Scotiabank's lack of a specific AUDCAD outlook implies that the Canadian dollar's weakness, driven by Canada's economic challenges, could complicate the forecast landscape.

Big bank views

  • NAB projects AUDCAD at 0.94 by mid-2026, suggesting an end-of-year increase.
  • Scotiabank does not provide a direct AUDCAD forecast but highlights CAD's downward pressure.
  • Overall forecasts for AUDCAD are mixed, reflecting diverging economic factors in Australia and Canada.

What could change the outlook

  • Any additional rate hikes by the Reserve Bank of Australia could further bolster the AUD.
  • Economic recovery signs in Canada could strengthen the CAD and alter current forecasts.
