Dominant driver🌍 Global risk sentiment
3-month trend⚪ Range-bound
Currently, MYR/INR is trading close to the recent lows within its 3-month range, supported by risk-off sentiment from global geopolitical tensions and oil price rises. The pair is holding near its 90-day average but remains under pressure from cautious risk conditions. Near-term, the pair may continue to face downward pressure if risk aversion persists across markets.
💸 Transfer implications
- Expats: sending money to India may find it less favourable than recent levels, as MYR may weaken further.
- Travellers: exchanging MYR for INR could see the cost remain supported by the current risk-off climate.
- Businesses: paying INR invoices might face less favourable conversion rates if the pair declines further.
🧭 Key drivers
- Rate gap: The policy stance is neutral, with both currencies operating under stable floating regimes, limiting significant rate-driven moves.
- Risk/commodities: Risk-off sentiment driven by geopolitical tensions and oil prices is pressuring EMFX, including MYR.
- Global factors: International geopolitical tensions and oil price trends are supporting safe-haven flows, impacting MYR/INR.
⚠️ What could change it
- Upside risk: A reduction in risk aversion or a recovery in global markets could support MYR and temper declines.
- Downside risk: Escalating geopolitical tensions or spikes in oil prices could push the pair even lower.
BER suggests shopping around for lower transfer margins may help reduce overall costs, especially if the pair remains under pressure.
