    14-DAY HIGH1d

    The USD to MXN exchange rate has seen the Mexican Peso experience volatility in the face of a robust US dollar, driven by strong economic indicators and high Treasury yields in the United States. FX analysts, referencing a Reuters Poll of Forex Strategists, highlight that the dollar's fortitude, tied to an assertive U.S. economy and the Fed's hawkish stance, is projected to maintain its superiority over most major currencies as the year ends. Despite anticipated sporadic weaknesses, the persistent strength, coupled with global growth worries and concerns about China, suggests that the USD might retain its resilience for a considerable period. However, the overarching sentiment among economists points towards a potential modest depreciation of the dollar into 2024, as expectations lean towards the Federal Reserve moving towards its first rate cut.

    How to get a good USD to MXN exchange rate

    There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting US dollar to Mexican peso:

    1. Shop around for the best USD/MXN 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 USD/MXN 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 USD and MXN 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 Mexican peso with US dollar, then it's better for the USD/MXN 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.

    Will the US dollar rise against the Mexican peso?

    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 USD/MXN to your personalised BER Smart Rate Tracker to track and benefit from currency movements.

    Is Mexico a good place for Americans to retire to?

    Mexico can be a good place for Americans to retire to, as it offers a lower cost of living and a warm climate in many areas. However, it is important to keep in mind that Mexico has its own unique culture and way of life, which may take some getting used to.

    Additionally, it is important to be aware of the potential risks and hazards that can come with living in a foreign country, such as crime and political instability. It is also important to research the area you plan to retire to and understand the local laws and customs. Consulting with a financial advisor and attorney before making any decisions is also advisable.
