There’s plenty going on right now…

The US election takes centre stage over the coming days and it could be decisive, in which case the ramifications for currencies will be immediate.

Or it could be a cliff hanger and trigger months of legal action.

Like all big global events, the best thing you can do is be prepared to take advantage, should rates move in your favour.

It takes only a couple of minutes.

What's Going on in the UK.

The Pound has somehow avoided losses so far in reaction to Lockdown “Part Two”.

Both GBP/EUR and GBP/USD have gained ground in the past few sessions.

It certainly won’t help get a Brexit deal over the line.

The looming deadline will be less than a month away once lockdown ends.

It all seems to point to a volatile end to the year.

Protecting our clients against adverse market movements is part of our service.

We are watching markets and rates continuously throughout the day.

It’s a topsy turvy time for GBP to Euro.

The market seems to be ignoring economic news at the moment as we await Brexit developments.

With only 10 weeks to go, there is still hope that a last-minute deal can be struck.

Some analysts are stating that they see limited upside in Sterling even if a deal can be reached.

The wider problem is the outlook for the UK economy.

The Bank of England is considering negative interest rates.

But we have no historical example of a country combining negative rates with a large trade and budget deficit.

Investors are scratching their heads as to what currency impact that would have.

Do three negatives make a positive?

Lingering in the background is also the imminent US election.

That will also bring uncertainty for global politics and currency pairs going forward.

There is always an element of uncertainty in exchange rates, but right now we face an abnormal degree of complex events with unpredictable outcomes.

Amidst this situation, you may consider locking-in a rate for peace of mind.

The fog of uncertainty continues…

Sterling is largely beholden to news on coronavirus and Brexit negotiations.

Given how well Sterling has held up, investors are still hopeful of a vaccine and/or trade deal before the year is out.

No one can say for sure which direction, if any, Sterling will go.

We are at a fork in the road.

The question is whether you want to take the risk?

Amidst so much uncertainty of a political/economic/health crisis, you may wish to lock-in a rate for peace of mind.

It will allow you to continue with your own plans using a secured budget.

The Pound has been remarkably resilient this week despite the new lockdown measures.

It’s not good news for the battered UK economy.

The three-tier system will cause plenty of financial tears, the longer it goes on.

Why’s the Pound not crashing down?

It’s being supported by hope for a breakthrough on Brexit.

Hope being the operative word.

As always, it’s tricky to know what to believe with Brexit.

While the EU’s Michel Barnier says we are inching towards a deal, the French minister, Jean-Yves Le Drian, says a no-deal Brexit looks likely at this point.

We would be more calm if the markets were more nervous.

It seems to us that there is a degree of complacency about the political risks hovering over GBP.

If you need to transfer money abroad, you may wish to protect yourself from the turmoil ahead by securing a favourable exchange rate.
