    Dominant driver🌍 Global risk sentiment
    3-month trend🔴 Downtrend

    Currently, CAD/JPY is trading near its 90-day lows around 112.2, which is below the 3-month average of 114.8. The pair remains supported by risk-off sentiment and Japanese yen strength amid geopolitical tensions. Over the next few sessions, the pair may stay under pressure, with downside risks persisting if risk aversion continues to dominate. Near-term conditions suggest limited upward momentum.

    💸 Transfer implications

    • Expats: sending money to Japan may find Japanese Yen (JPY) more expensive than recent levels.
    • Travellers: buying Yen may face less favourable exchange rates if the pair remains weak.
    • Businesses: paying Japanese Yen invoices with CAD might encounter less advantageous rates shortly.

    🧭 Key drivers

    • Rate gap: The Bank of Japan's cautious monetary stance keeps Yen undervalued, influencing the rate.
    • Risk/commodities: Elevated geopolitical tensions and oil prices sustain risk-off flows supporting the Yen.
    • Global factors: Persistent risk aversion driven by geopolitical conflicts underscores safe-haven flows.

    ⚠️ What could change it

    • Upside risk: Any easing of risk-off sentiment or stabilization in global tensions.
    • Downside risk: Japanese authorities intervention to prop up the Yen or shifts in global risk sentiment.

    BER suggests comparing FX providers to find lower margins, which can help offset less favourable exchange conditions.
