GBP to ILS Forecast

In the near term, GBP/ILS is trading close to its recent lows, holding near the 90-day average. The pair is under pressure from the dominant driver of central bank policy and risk-off sentiment. Current conditions suggest the exchange rate may remain supported by risk aversion, but the overall bias points to a potential weakening of the pound against the shekel if risk appetite remains subdued.

Transfer implications

  • Expats: sending money abroad from GBP to ILS may find conversions slightly less favourable than recent levels.
  • Travellers: buying ILS foreign cash or loading currency cards could face pressure if GBP weakens further.
  • Businesses: paying Israeli invoices in ILS using GBP might see costs increase if the pair trends lower.

Key drivers

  • Rate gap: The Bank of Israel’s interest rate cuts support the shekel, narrowing the yield differential with the UK.
  • Risk/commodities: Risk-off sentiment driven by geopolitical and energy tensions continues to weigh on the pound.
  • Global factors: Broader risk conditions and market caution sustain demand for safe havens, reinforcing the recent bias.

What could change it

  • Upside risk: A sudden easing of risk aversion could support GBP if global tensions diminish.
  • Downside risk: Further risk aversion or geopolitical escalation could lead to additional pressure on GBP/ILS.
