The Canadian dollar (CAD), commonly referred to as the "loonie," has recently shown resilience, appreciating against the Pakistani rupee (PKR) to a rate of 201.7, which is 3.2% above its three-month average of 195.4. This stability is noteworthy, particularly as CAD has traded within a relatively narrow band of 5.7%, ranging from 191.4 to 202.3. Analysts observe that this movement reflects a decoupling of the CAD from plummeting oil prices, with the CAD rising even as crude oil fell to a four-year low of 64.76 USD, down 11.9% from its three-month average. Such dynamics could suggest a complex interplay between market sentiment and CAD's inherent relationships with commodity prices.

The exact potential savings depends on the currencies being exchanged and the amount you are transferring and if you are willing to shop around.
