Australian Dollar - NZ Dollar Forecasting
National Australia Bank (NAB) have revised upwards their Aussie/Kiwi dollar forecasts now expecting the AUD/NZD rate at NZ$1.09 by June 2022, up from their previous forecast of NZ$1.06.
For 2020, NAB sees the Australian dollar at NZ$1.09 by year-end, down a little from the previous predicted NZ$1.10.
Although New Zealand has nearly eliminated COVID-19 and wound back restrictions, its international borders are likely to be closed until 2021. This means the economy will be slower to rebound as its reliance on tourism outweighs that of major counterparts. Despite the New Zealand economy’s reliance on tourism, the NZD has been well supported by positive risk sentiment, higher NZ–US short term yields and robust commodity prices. August Currency Update

How to get Best AUD to NZD Exchange Rates
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.
Our real-time foreign transfer and travel money/cards comparison calculators make shopping around easy and help you calculate how much you can save.
