Forecasts for CAD to AUD

 

Based on recent exchange rate analyst forecasts and currency market updates, the Canadian dollar (CAD) has shown resilience despite weakening in February due to changing central bank policies and lower commodity prices, particularly oil. The CAD has a positive correlation with the US dollar and may continue to be influenced by oil price dynamics this year. While there are concerns about potential Bank of Canada (BoC) interest rate cuts and a strong positive correlation with the USD, CIBC Capital Markets have upgraded their year-end forecast for the USD/CAD exchange rate in 2024 to 1.31. However, they predict optimism for the Canadian Dollar in 2025 with a potentially weaker USD against other major currencies.

How to get a good CAD to AUD exchange rate

There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting Canadian dollar to Australian dollar:

  1. Shop around for the best CAD/AUD exchange rate: Exchange rates can vary significantly between different currency exchange providers, so it's important to compare rates from different sources before making a conversion.
  2. Timing is important: Keep an eye on the CAD/AUD rate on currency markets, as exchange rates can fluctuate frequently. Try to make your transactions when the exchange rate is in your favor. You can do this easily with our BER Smart Rate Tracker.
  3. Use a credit/debit or travel card that doesn't charge foreign transaction fees: Some credit cards charge additional fees for transactions made in a foreign currency, so it's important to check with your card issuer to see if they charge these fees and what their exchange rate is.
  4. Use a multi-currency account: Having a multi-currency account allows you to hold and transfer money in both CAD and AUD at close to the interbank rate. It also allows you to make payments or withdrawals in the local currency while avoiding high conversion fees.
  5. Buy currency in advance: If you know that you will need foreign currency in the future, consider buying it in advance when the exchange rate is favorable.

The key is reducing excessive costs and fees

Generally speaking, if you are buying Australian dollar with Canadian dollar, then it's better for the CAD/AUD exchange rate to be higher.

However working against you are the fees all foreign exchange providers charge for providing their service. These fees 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.

It's worth noting that while these tips can help you save on exchange rates, it's important to be aware that no single method is guaranteed to provide the best exchange rate in every situation, and it may require some research and comparison-shopping to find the best option for your specific needs.

Will the Canadian dollar rise against the Australian dollar?

It is almost impossible to predict what an exchange rate will do in the future, the best approach is to monitor the currency markets and transact when an exchange rate moves in your favour.

To help with this you can add CAD/AUD to your personalised Rate Tracker to track and benefit from currency movements.
