NZD to JPY 2025 Forecasts

Analysis of recent kiwi → yen forecasts for 2025. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest New Zealand dollar to Japanese yen performance and trends.

 

The New Zealand dollar (NZD) has recently faced considerable downward pressure, hitting multi-month lows against the Japanese yen (JPY) around 86.27, which is 1.4% below its three-month average of 87.49. Analysts attribute this decline to a deterioration in risk sentiment and ongoing domestic economic concerns, exacerbated by a recent cut in the official cash rate by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) to a three-year low of 3.00%. This decision, announced on August 20, aligns with the central bank's efforts to stimulate a fragile economic recovery amidst global uncertainties.

Recent news indicates that New Zealand's consumer confidence rebounded slightly after hitting a ten-month low, which could provide temporary support for the NZD. However, the underlying economic jitters persist due to concerns over global demand and the impacts of tariffs. Economists have noted that U.S. tariffs may lower medium-term inflation but could also dampen business investment and household spending, thereby affecting the NZD's value further.

Meanwhile, the Japanese yen has experienced volatility, influenced by political uncertainty following the resignation of Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba, which raised concerns about potential shifts in fiscal policy. On September 19, the Bank of Japan (BOJ) opted to maintain its short-term interest rate at 0.5%, but the decision has led to fluctuations in the yen's value as the markets process the implications of the BOJ's continued stimulus unwinding measures.

Additionally, fluctuations in oil prices impact the currency landscape. Current oil prices are trading at 30-day highs near 70.13, significantly above their three-month average of 68.13. This volatility could further influence the JPY, as movements in oil prices generally affect Japan's trade balance and currency valuation.

In summary, the NZD/JPY exchange rate could face additional pressures in the near term from ongoing economic uncertainties in New Zealand and political developments in Japan, with external factors such as oil prices also playing a crucial role in shaping the currency outlook.
