The current exchange rate forecast for the CAD to BRL indicates a more complex interplay of factors than typically seen, particularly as the Canadian dollar (CAD) shows resilience despite a significant decline in oil prices. Analysts have noted a decoupling of the CAD from its usual correlation with oil prices as it appreciated to 4.2298 BRL, which is notably 3.8% above its three-month average of 4.0753. This strength occurred even as crude oil prices fell to 64.76 USD, marking an 11.9% decrease from their three-month average of 73.47 USD. Such fluctuations suggest that while the market’s usual ties between oil prices and the CAD hold strong, there are emerging factors at play that could support the loonie independently.

There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting Canadian dollar to Brazilian real:
Generally speaking, if you are buying Brazilian real with Canadian dollar, then it's better for the CAD/BRL 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.
