The recent forecasts for the SGD to MYR exchange rate indicate a challenging landscape influenced by escalating trade tensions and weakening emerging market currencies. Analysts have noted that both Singapore and Malaysia face significant headwinds following the announcement of tariffs by U.S. President Donald Trump. Specifically, Singapore is experiencing a 10% tariff on its imports, while Malaysia faces a more severe 24% tariff. This development has dampened investor sentiment across the region, driving regional currencies, including the Thai baht and South Korean won, to decrease by approximately 2% in the past week. Economists suggest that as fears of a protracted global trade war grow, the outlook for the Malaysian ringgit (MYR) is deteriorating, further impacting the SGD to MYR exchange relationship.

There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting Singapore dollar to Malaysian ringgit:
Generally speaking, if you are buying Malaysian ringgit with Singapore dollar, then it's better for the SGD/MYR 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.
