3-month trend⚪ Range-bound
Currently, CAD/ILS is trading near the 90-day average, supported by risk-off sentiment and safe-haven flows. The pair is trading close to recent highs, with the dominant driver being deteriorated risk appetite. Over the next few sessions, the pair may remain supported as global risk conditions persist, but downside risks could limit sharp gains.
💸 Transfer implications
- Expats: sending money to Israel may find current conditions slightly less favourable than recent levels.
- Travellers: buying Israeli shekel foreign cash or loading cards might experience short-term costs supported by stable exchange conditions.
- Businesses: paying Israeli invoices in ILS using CAD could face limited benefits from recent strength in the pair.
🧭 Key drivers
- Rate gap: The Bank of Israel's rate cut has narrowed the yield advantage for the shekel, influencing the pair.
- Risk/commodities: Global risk sentiment has worsened, boosting safe-haven ILS, pressuring CAD.
- Global factors: Deteriorating risk sentiment remains the dominant macro influence, shaping the pair’s recent range.
⚠️ What could change it
- Upside risk: A stabilizing risk environment or reduced safe-haven demand could support a recovery.
- Downside risk: Further global risk deterioration or a sharper move lower in oil prices could weaken the pair.
