CAD to AUD Forecast & Outlook

13 Jun 2026 • 00:25 GMT

CAD/AUD 1.0143

📊 Forecast snapshot

  • Near-term bias: ⚪ Range-bound
  • Expected range: 1.0050 – 1.0230
  • Dominant driver: ⚖️ Interest-rate differentials
  • 3-month trend: 🟢 Uptrend

CAD/AUD is trading close to 7-day lows near 1.0143, just below its 3-month average. The focus remains on the rate differential, with Australian rate hikes supporting the AUD longer term while Canadian economic challenges weigh on the CAD. Current conditions suggest the pair may stay within its recent range and face limited near-term directional momentum.

💸 Transfer implications

  • Expats: sending money to Australia may find current levels slightly more favourable than recent levels.
  • Travellers: exchanging AUD cash could see limited gains or losses in the near term.
  • Businesses: paying AUD invoices with CAD might face stable cost conditions with no significant advantage or disadvantage.

🧭 Key drivers

  • Rate gap: The Australian rate hike cycle supports the AUD, while Canadian economic issues weaken the CAD.
  • Risk/commodities: Risk sentiment remains neutral, with no clear risk-off or risk-on bias impacting the pair.
  • Global factors: The pair’s outlook is influenced by domestic economic challenges in Canada and Australia’s rate hike trajectory.

⚠️ What could change it

  • Upside risk: More aggressive rate hikes by Australia could push the pair higher.
  • Downside risk: Signs of Canadian economic recovery could weaken the CAD and shift the pair upward.

BER suggests shopping around for the lowest margin provider may help reduce overall transfer costs or comparing FX providers could 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.
