Australian Dollar and Malaysian Ringgit - Market News
When determining the best time to make a foreign exchange transaction, in this case the AUD vs MYR, you should pay attention to the recent market trends for both currencies.
Australian Dollar (AUD)
The pandemic year 2020 saw solid gains for the AUD against the majority of currencies, in particular from the initial pandemic driven market volatility in March right through to the end of the year. This was off the back of positive sentiment which continues to drive direction into 2021. The end of the year sees the Aussie dollar nudging 0.76 US cents.

Malaysian Ringgit (MYR)
The Malaysian ringgit is up around 8% (to late November) against the US dollar since the beginning of the pandemic crisis in March and is gaining favour from bank commentators such as HSBC due to the attraction of the carry trade – the ability to earn higher interest when holding MYR versus other major currencies.

How to get Good AUD to MYR Exchange Rates
There are two important ways to save on Foreign Exchange, the first is minimising unnecessary or excessive costs and fees, and the other is to transact when the exchange rate is in your favour.
Reduce Excessive costs and fees
All foreign exchange providers charge a fee for providing their service and this fee is usually contained within the exchange rate margin (or difference to the mid-rate).
The transaction margin you end up being charged can be considerably reduced by around a few percent (of total amount being exchanged) for
travel money and possibly over 5% to 6% when sending money.
The exact potential savings depends on the currencies being exchanged and the amount you are transferring and if you are willing to shop around.
