The USD to GBP exchange rate is currently facing significant pressure, with recent forecasts reflecting a climate of uncertainty surrounding trade policies and their impact on both currencies. The US dollar is under strain, particularly following renewed trade jitters as investors expressed concern over a lack of progress in negotiations with major trading partners. Analysts note that a string of tariffs announced by President Trump, including a 10% import tariff on UK goods, adds to this pressure, drawing attention to the potential for escalating trade tensions.

There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting US dollar to British pound:
Generally speaking, if you are buying British pound with US dollar, then it's better for the USD/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.
