Forecasts for CAD to GBP

24 MayThe Canadian dollar (CAD) has recently shown signs of weakness, trading at 0.5375 against the British pound (GBP), which is 0.9% below its three-month average of 0.5425. The CAD is closely linked to oil prices, and despite a recent uptick in oil, it softened on Wednesday due to expectations of decreasing Canadian producer prices, which could spur bets on interest rate cuts by the Bank of Canada (BoC). With oil prices currently at $64.78, they are 4.8% below their three-month average, fluctuating within a 24.7% range from $60.14 to $75.02. This volatility tends to impact the CAD's performance, especially as Canada is one of the largest oil exporters globally.

How to get a good CAD to GBP exchange rate

There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting Canadian dollar to British pound:

Shop around for the best CAD/GBP exchange rate: Exchange rates can vary significantly between different currency exchange providers, so it's important to compare rates from different sources before making a conversion.
Timing is important: Keep an eye on the CAD/GBP rate on currency markets, as exchange rates can fluctuate frequently. Try to make your transactions when the exchange rate is in your favor. You can do this easily with our BER Smart Rate Tracker.
Use a credit/debit or travel card that doesn't charge foreign transaction fees: Some credit cards charge additional fees for transactions made in a foreign currency, so it's important to check with your card issuer to see if they charge these fees and what their exchange rate is.
Use a multi-currency account: Having a multi-currency account allows you to hold and transfer money in both CAD and GBP at close to the interbank rate. It also allows you to make payments or withdrawals in the local currency while avoiding high conversion fees.
Buy currency in advance: If you know that you will need foreign currency in the future, consider buying it in advance when the exchange rate is favorable.

The key is reducing excessive costs and fees

Generally speaking, if you are buying British pound with Canadian dollar, then it's better for the CAD/GBP exchange rate to be higher.

However working against you are the fees all foreign exchange providers charge for providing their service. These fees is usually contained within the exchange rate margin (or difference to the mid-rate).

The transaction margin you end up being charged can be considerably reduced by around a few percent (of total amount being exchanged) for travel money and possibly over 5% to 6% when sending money. The exact potential savings depends on the currencies being exchanged and the amount you are transferring and if you are willing to shop around.

Our real-time foreign transfer and travel money/cards comparison calculators make shopping around easy and help you calculate how much you can save.

It's worth noting that while these tips can help you save on exchange rates, it's important to be aware that no single method is guaranteed to provide the best exchange rate in every situation, and it may require some research and comparison-shopping to find the best option for your specific needs.
