GBP to HUF Rates - 2026 Forecast

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

 

GBP/HUF Outlook:

The GBP/HUF exchange rate is slightly weaker and likely to move sideways, as it is currently below its recent average and within its mid-range. The lack of a clear driver is contributing to this stable outlook.

Key drivers:

• Rate gap: The Bank of England's interest rate remains steady at 4%, while the National Bank of Hungary holds a higher rate of 6.5%, benefiting the HUF.

• Risk/commodities: Oil prices are currently stable, which helps reduce volatility for both currencies involved in international trade.

• One macro factor: Hungary's record high foreign exchange reserves are enhancing investor confidence and supporting the forint against the pound.

Range:

The GBP/HUF rate is expected to hold steady within its recent 3-month range as it continues to navigate the current economic landscape.

What could change it:

• Upside risk: A stronger-than-expected UK economic performance could lift the pound.

• Downside risk: Geopolitical tensions could lead to increased risk aversion, negatively impacting the GBP.
