CAD to GBP Rates - 2026 Forecast

Analysis of recent loonie → sterling forecasts for 2026. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest Canadian dollar to British pound performance and trends.

 

CAD/GBP Outlook:

The CAD/GBP rate is currently near its 3-month average and has shown stability recently, suggesting a likely sideways movement. As noted in Scotiabank's forecast, the outlook hinges on UK rate dynamics compared to oil-driven factors affecting the CAD.

Key drivers:

Rate gap: The Bank of Canada maintains a higher interest rate compared to the Bank of England, influencing stronger capital flows into CAD.

Risk/commodities: Recent stability in oil prices with Brent Crude OIL/USD trading significantly above its average has provided some support for the CAD, but any declines may pressure it.

Economic performance: UK growth projections have softened, which may limit the GBP's strength going forward.

Range:

The CAD/GBP rate is likely to drift within its stable recent range without testing extremes.

What could change it:

Upside risk: A sudden increase in oil prices could boost the CAD significantly.

Downside risk: Further political instability or poor economic data from the UK could weaken the GBP, affecting the CAD/GBP rate negatively.
