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

 

GBP/QAR Outlook:

The GBP to QAR exchange rate is likely to move sideways, trading near its recent average. The lack of clear drivers points to stability in current rates amid ongoing economic uncertainties.

Key drivers:

  • Rate gap: The Bank of England's cautious interest rate policy contrasts with stable rates set by the Qatar Central Bank, impacting the GBP's attractiveness.
  • Risk/commodities: Current oil prices are significantly above their average, affecting the QAR via its dollar peg and generally supporting the economy.
  • One macro factor: Speculation around potential interest rate cuts from the Bank of England is generating pressure on the GBP, especially with upcoming economic data releases.

Range:

Expect the GBP/QAR to hold within its recent average range, facing limited volatility.

What could change it:

  • Upside risk: A strong rebound in the UK's retail sales could boost the GBP.
  • Downside risk: Continued pressure from potential Bank of England rate cuts may weaken the GBP further.
