AUD to GBP 2025 Forecasts

Analysis of recent aussie → sterling forecasts for 2025. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest Australian dollar to British pound performance and trends.

 

The recent performance of the Australian dollar (AUD) against the British pound (GBP) has been influenced by a combination of negative employment data from Australia and mixed labor market figures from the UK. The AUD has faced considerable downward pressure following a dismal jobs report, which revealed that unemployment soared to its highest level since November 2021, coupled with an unexpected slump in full-time employment. As a result, market sentiment has shifted towards increased expectations for interest rate cuts from the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA). Analysts suggest that this downturn may keep the Aussie under pressure in the short term as investors assess the implications for monetary policy.

On the other hand, the GBP experienced a slight rise despite a mixed jobs report indicating a rise in unemployment and slowing wage growth. The upward revision of May's payroll figures has provided some support for the pound, as it mitigated the dovish outlook from the Bank of England (BoE) regarding potential rate cuts. Nonetheless, analysts caution that the pound may struggle to sustain its momentum due to a lack of forthcoming economic data from the UK.

Several factors are contributing to the current dynamics of the AUD. The RBA's recent decision to maintain interest rates amidst global economic uncertainties reflects a cautious approach, which may further weigh on the AUD. Additionally, fluctuations in commodity prices, particularly in iron ore and coal, have heightened concerns about Australia's export revenues. Given China's status as Australia's largest trading partner, its weaker economic performance raises doubts about future demand for Australian goods, which is also a contributing factor to the currency's depreciation.

In terms of market sentiment, the AUD is often considered a risk-sensitive currency, likely to weaken during periods of increased geopolitical tension and global inflation. Recent trends show that the AUD to GBP exchange rate has remained relatively stable, currently trading at 0.4850—only 0.8% above its three-month average of 0.4811 and maintaining a narrow range of 2.4% from 0.4759 to 0.4874.

Looking ahead, experts suggest that the Australian dollar may continue to face challenges unless there is a significant turnaround in employment figures or commodity prices. Conversely, the GBP's trajectory will depend largely on the evolving economic landscape in the UK, particularly in relation to employment data and monetary policy decisions by the BoE. Overall, both currencies are likely to experience volatility as the global economic environment remains uncertain.
