GBP to TRY 2025 Forecasts

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

 

Recent developments indicate increasing pressures on the British Pound (GBP) against the Turkish Lira (TRY), highlighting a complex interplay of domestic economic factors and international market sentiment. Analysts note that the GBP has faced downward pressure due to disappointing retail activity and soaring public borrowing, which reached £83.8 billion from April to August 2025. This surge in borrowing is further complicating fiscal policy as Finance Minister Rachel Reeves prepares for the November budget, raising concerns about potential tax hikes that could strain consumer confidence and economic growth.

Despite a modest rebound against the dollar, the GBP remains vulnerable due to persistent weaknesses in the labor market and growing fiscal concerns. With the Bank of England adjusting its interest rate outlook based on recent economic data, particularly surrounding inflation and wage growth, forecasters suggest that any potential cuts may limit the Pound's recovery prospects. Upcoming economic indicators, including the Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI), will be crucial for gauging the overall health of the UK economy and influencing future monetary policy decisions.

On the other side of the currency pair, the Turkish Lira (TRY) is subject to its own challenges and uncertainties. The Central Bank of Turkey remains committed to a tight monetary policy until inflation demonstrates a consistent decline, which may provide some support to the TRY. Furthermore, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) has recently upgraded Turkey's GDP growth forecast, although this is tempered by ongoing political and market risks.

The recent discontinuation of the FX-protected deposit scheme has also led to significant changes in the currency landscape, contributing to increased volatility in the Lira. Combined with civil unrest and protests following the detention of a prominent political figure, this turbulence has resulted in a sharp depreciation of the Lira, impacting its performance against other currencies.

Currently, the GBP to TRY exchange rate is positioned at 55.43, reflecting a slight gain of 0.9% above its three-month average. However, analysts warn that the currency pair has traded within a fairly stable range of 4.9%, between 53.64 and 56.28, suggesting that any substantial movements may be contingent on forthcoming economic data and geopolitical developments.

Overall, investors and businesses involved in international transactions should remain vigilant to these evolving factors, as they could significantly influence costs when exchanging GBP for TRY in the near future.
