The New Zealand Dollar (NZD) has been the subject of cautious optimism among currency strategists heading into 2024, with forecasts suggesting a potential rally as the year progresses. According to FX analysts, the expected decline in the US Dollar (USD) stemming from anticipated Federal Reserve easing could serve as a tailwind for the NZD. As the highest-yielding G10 currency after the USD, the NZD’s perceived undervaluation presents a constructive picture, especially with the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) considering a potential rate cut in the summer of 2024. Market view also notes that a focus on stricter inflation targeting could maintain higher rates for a prolonged period, which would likely benefit the NZD. However, economic challenges such as ongoing inflation, the threat of a recession, and volatile dairy prices could provide headwinds for the Kiwi currency.

There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting New Zealand dollar to US dollar:
Generally speaking, if you are buying US dollar with New Zealand dollar, then it's better for the NZD/USD 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.
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 NZD/USD to your personalised BER Smart Rate Tracker to track and benefit from currency movements.
Rather than requiring you to set a target rate, our FX Alerts work differently. Once you add a currency pair for tracking in your watchlist we can select to be notified daily for any UP▲ DOWN▼ HIGH▲ LOW▼ alerts over a range of periods over the recent 90 days.

Additionally, obtaining a valid work visa may be necessary in order to work in the US as a foreigner. It's important to research the specific requirements for the type of business you plan to start and the state where you plan to set it up.
