AED Market Update
25 Jun 2026 • 00:35 GMT
The UAE Dirham (AED) remains stable against the US dollar, holding steady at its 3-month average of about 0.2723. Meanwhile, the AED has seen notable gains against several major currencies over the past 90 days. It has reached 90-day highs against the Euro, near 0.2398, and against the British pound, at approximately 0.2068, reflecting increased strength in recent weeks. Similar upward moves are also evident against the Japanese yen, around 44.06, and the Australian dollar, near 0.3947, as well as the Canadian dollar and Swiss franc.
The broader USD rally driven by expectations of higher interest rates and market uncertainties has kept the AED's USD exchange rate steady. At the same time, increased AED strength against other G10 currencies indicates a resilient UAE currency amid global market shifts.
Recent UAE developments, including the launch of the Digital Dirham and new infrastructure projects like Etihad Rail, support the country's ongoing economic modernization efforts. These initiatives may help sustain AED stability and even contribute to slight appreciation over time. For now, the AED remains a steady and reliable currency within its recent trading range.
