USD to GBP 2025 Forecasts

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

 

The USD to GBP exchange rate has been under pressure lately due to a combination of factors affecting both currencies. The U.S. dollar is struggling as investors react to domestic labor market concerns and the ongoing U.S. government shutdown. Analysts noted that recent data indicating a significant drop in employment from the ADP report has caused uncertainty regarding the dollar's strength. With the non-farm payrolls data also delayed, the focus will shift to the ISM services PMI, where robust growth could potentially support the dollar.

Conversely, the British pound faces its own challenges related to budget concerns and economic stagnation. Markets are cautious as fiscal policies from Chancellor Rachel Reeves become a focal point, in particular discussions about child benefit reforms, which have raised funding worries. Despite these pressures, the GBP has recently shown resilience, edging higher against the dollar amid the U.S. shutdown, which has created a risk-off sentiment benefiting the pound.

Despite these economic factors, the exchange rate has been relatively stable, with the USD to GBP at seven-day highs near 0.7463, maintaining a tight range between 0.7328 and 0.7572 over the past three months. Forecasters suggest that external dynamics, such as potential U.S.-China trade negotiations and broader geopolitical trends, will continue to influence the dollar's performance.

Overall, while the U.S. dollar appears vulnerable to labor market data and fiscal uncertainties, the British pound's stability may be bolstered by focused policy responses, although it remains sensitive to the overall economic environment.
