GBP to MYR 2026 Forecasts

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

 

GBP/MYR Outlook:

Bearish, as the rate is below its recent average and nearing recent lows, with limited drivers supporting the pound.

Key drivers:

• Rate gap: The Bank of England's dovish stance contrasts with the more robust policies observed from the Malaysian central bank, putting pressure on the GBP.

• Risk/commodities: The US dollar's weakness is supporting the MYR, while rising oil prices can boost Malaysia's economy given its ties to the energy sector.

• One macro factor: The Malaysian economy's resilience, with GDP growth at 5.2%, enhances the MYR's position against the GBP.

Range:

The GBP/MYR is likely to drift within its recent range, reflecting stability but leaning towards the lower end.

What could change it:

• Upside risk: A surprising shift in BoE policy could strengthen the pound.

• Downside risk: Continued weakness in the UK economic indicators could further weaken the GBP.
