GBP to RUB 2025 Forecasts

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

 

The GBP to RUB exchange rate currently stands at 113.5, which is approximately 5.5% above its three-month average of 107.6. The pound has experienced notable volatility, trading within a range of 102.3 to 114.7 over that period.

Recent forecasts indicate a bearish outlook for the British pound due to ongoing fiscal concerns and a lack of positive economic indicators. Analysts highlight growing apprehension surrounding the UK's public finances, as further tax hikes or spending cuts may become necessary for the government to maintain fiscal discipline. The upcoming announcement of the UK budget on November 26 is key, with expectations that it could further influence GBP's performance. Additionally, market reactions to the Bank of England's interest rate outlook remain cautious, with institutions like HSBC and Deutsche Bank pushing back their rate cut forecasts in light of persistent inflation.

Conversely, the Russian ruble's performance is being shaped by the Finance Ministry's recent decision to increase daily foreign currency sales significantly, aimed at stabilizing the currency. Despite this measure, the ruble faces downward pressure, exacerbated by a forecast indicating a potential 20% depreciation against the USD in the coming year due to anticipated new U.S. sanctions. The Bank of Russia's efforts to control inflation have shown progress, with year-on-year consumer price inflation decreasing, but concerns regarding the economy, highlighted by Sberbank's warnings of a potential recession, loom large.

The ruble's movements are also influenced by the price of Brent Crude oil, which is currently trading at 66.99 USD—a figure that is about 2.9% under its three-month average of 68.98. This considerable volatility in oil prices, along with the broader economic context, plays a critical role in the ruble's trajectory.

Overall, both currencies are presently navigating challenging landscapes, with the GBP under pressure from fiscal uncertainties and the RUB facing challenges tied to both government policy and external economic factors. As conditions evolve, currency traders and businesses should monitor these developments closely to make informed decisions in international transactions.
