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.

 

Recent forecasts for the USD to GBP exchange rate indicate a nuanced landscape influenced by various economic indicators and central bank policies. The US dollar has faced downward pressure following a miss on inflation expectations, with the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) revealing both softer headline inflation and an unexpected dip in core inflation. Analysts speculate that this could lead the Federal Reserve to pursue further interest rate cuts, with expectations of a 50 basis points reduction by the end of 2025. The impending Fed interest rate decision is creating caution among investors, limiting movements in the dollar.

Conversely, the British pound has been stabilizing due to positive economic data from the UK, such as stronger retail sales and PMI figures. This recent performance has tempered earlier expectations of potential interest rate cuts by the Bank of England (BoE) in December. As the CBI prepares to release its distributive trades index, any negative surprises could prompt renewed weakness in the pound.

The GBP recently strengthened against the USD, influenced by differing monetary policy outlooks between the BoE and the Federal Reserve. The current exchange rate for USD to GBP is approximately 0.7506, which remains only slightly above its three-month average of 0.744. The pair has traded within a relatively stable range of 3.3%, further highlighting a period of consolidation.

Factors such as expected UK budget measures, which include tax increases and spending cuts, may also play a pivotal role in shaping market sentiment. Additionally, the upcoming inflation figures in the US and ongoing global trade tensions add layers of complexity to the USD's trajectory. As these dynamics unfold, both analysts and market participants will be keenly watching key economic reports and central bank communications for guidance on future currency movements.
