    CAD/GBP Forecasts

    In light of recent FX analyst forecasts and the 3-month price data, the CAD to GBP outlook remains uncertain, as several key drivers are expected to impact the currency pair throughout March. The unexpectedly strong US Jobs Report in February has caused the US dollar to surge against major currencies, while global GDP growth remains sluggish amid an inflationary climate. Additionally, China's improving economy post COVID-zero policy and the historic UBS-Credit Suisse deal are key factors to watch. These drivers will likely influence investor risk sentiment and the FX markets in the coming weeks.

    The CAD to GBP exchange rate has been trading at 0.5957, which is 2.1% below its 3-month average of 0.6086, having fluctuated within a 4.8% range of 0.5925-0.6209. Factors such as the UK's post-Brexit economic performance and the Bank of Canada's policy decisions may contribute to further rate fluctuations. Economists expect the exchange rate to remain volatile as market participants assess the impact of these events on both currencies.

    In summary, the CAD to GBP outlook remains somewhat uncertain, with numerous factors expected to affect the exchange rate in the coming weeks. Investors should closely monitor economic developments and central bank policy decisions to gauge the potential impact on the currency pair.

    How to get a good CAD to GBP exchange rate

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

    1. Shop around for the best CAD/GBP 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/GBP 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 GBP 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 Pound Sterling with Canadian dollar, then it's better for the CAD/GBP 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 Pound Sterling?

    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/GBP to your personalised BER Smart Rate Tracker to track and benefit from currency movements.
