Forecasts for SGD to GBP

17 MayRecent forecasts for the SGD to GBP exchange rate indicate a complex and uncertain outlook influenced by escalating trade tensions and domestic economic factors affecting both currencies. Analysts note that the imposition of a 10% reciprocal tariff on goods from Singapore, as part of President Trump's broader trade initiatives, has led to a marked deterioration in sentiment towards emerging Asian currencies. The increased tariff burden, alongside trade war anxieties, has caused a pullback in the Singapore dollar, which is currently trading at 0.5787 SGD to GBP, just below its three-month average.

How to get a good SGD to GBP exchange rate

There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting Singapore dollar to British pound:

Shop around for the best SGD/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.
Timing is important: Keep an eye on the SGD/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.
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.
Use a multi-currency account: Having a multi-currency account allows you to hold and transfer money in both SGD 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.
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 British pound with Singapore dollar, then it's better for the SGD/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.
