PKR to USD 2026 Forecasts

Analysis of recent Pakistani rupee → dollar forecasts for 2026. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest Pakistani rupee to US dollar performance and trends.

 

The current market bias for the PKR to USD exchange rate is bearish.

Key drivers include:

  • The Federal Reserve is expected to cut interest rates multiple times by mid-2026, which typically weakens the USD.
  • The Pakistani Rupee has recently strengthened due to improved market confidence and economic stability following successful privatisation efforts, such as the sale of Pakistan International Airlines.
  • Fitch Ratings forecasts suggest the PKR may weaken gradually, reflecting potential inflationary pressures as economic activity stabilizes.

In the near term, the PKR is expected to trade within a range of consistent strength against the USD, influenced by recent highs.

An upside risk might emerge if the privatization initiatives lead to significant foreign investment, while a downside risk could arise if inflationary pressures in Pakistan escalate or the global appetite for the USD diminishes.
