GBP to MYR 2025 Forecasts

Analysis of recent sterling → ringgit forecasts for 2025. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest British pound to Malaysian ringgit performance and trends.

 

The GBP to MYR exchange rate has recently experienced fluctuations, trading near 14-day lows at approximately 5.6127, which is about 1.0% below its three-month average of 5.6741. Analysts note that this pair has traded within a stable range of 5.6089 to 5.7381 over the past few months. The current dynamics suggest that the pound's strength has been supported by market optimism, particularly in relation to a potential divergence in monetary policy between the Bank of England (BoE) and the U.S. Federal Reserve.

Recent updates indicate that the pound (GBP) has gained some traction, buoyed by increasing global risk appetite. However, ongoing challenges, such as a decline in UK retail sales, may limit its upward momentum. The upcoming UK budget announcement, which Finance Minister Rachel Reeves has indicated will include tax increases and spending cuts to address a significant fiscal gap, has also drawn attention as a potential market mover. This focus on fiscal policy may steer investors’ sentiment in the near term.

On the other hand, the Malaysian Ringgit (MYR) holds its own, bolstered by the U.S. Federal Reserve's decision to initiate a rate-cutting cycle, which has led to a weaker U.S. dollar. Economic indicators point to Malaysia's resilience, with steady GDP growth and a favorable trade surplus recently reported at MYR 16.1 billion. Such developments contribute to a more positive outlook for the MYR, especially amidst concerns over global economic vulnerabilities.

The US oil price has also played a role in influencing the MYR, as Malaysia's economy is significantly tied to oil revenues. Currently, oil is trading at $65.62, about 1.4% below its three-month average, with recent volatility reflecting a 20.4% trading range from $60.96 to $73.37. This price variability can impact the MYR, given its reliance on energy exports.

As analysts observe these trends, the GBP to MYR exchange rate may face continued pressure from mixed signals in both economies. Investors will likely monitor upcoming economic data releases and policy announcements closely to gauge potential implications for exchange rate movements in the weeks ahead.
