    Forecasts for GBP to BRL

     

    Recent market updates indicate that the GBP has faced challenges following disappointing GDP data from the UK, which recorded a meager growth of 0.1% against expectations of 0.2%. FX analysts suggest that this lackluster performance has contributed to the pound's recent softening. Furthermore, while retail sales figures are anticipated, which could reverse some bearish sentiments, uncertainty surrounding ongoing post-Brexit negotiations and the overall slow recovery of the UK economy could lead to continued volatility in GBP exchange rates. The GBP to BRL exchange rate has reflected this volatility, currently hovering at 7.4402, which is 1.2% below its three-month average of 7.5335 and has experienced a notable range of 9.3% over the last days.

    How to get a good GBP to BRL exchange rate

    There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting British pound to Brazilian real:

    1. Shop around for the best GBP/BRL 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 GBP/BRL 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 GBP and BRL 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 Brazilian real with British pound, then it's better for the GBP/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.

    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.
