Sterling fell against the New Zealand Dollar following the announcement of the Bank of England’s interest rate decision today, which held at 0.75%.

Sterling plummeted against many of its competitors today as no-deal Brexit fears soared following Tory leadership hopefuls Boris Johnson and Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt have hardened in their position on the Northern Irish backstop.

The Pound Sterling to Canadian Dollar (GBP/CAD) exchange rate made solid gains on Thursday morning after the UK and EU agreed an expanded political declaration on their future relationship. This development prompted markets to lower the odds of a no-deal Brexit, giving the Pound a strong boost across the board. Although reaction to the details of the declaration proved mixed, with many MPs still appearing minded to vote against the proposed Brexit deal, this was not enough to weigh down GBP exchange rates. Even the threat of...
US Dollar to Canadian Dollar Marches Higher Despite Bank of Canada?s Hawkishness Published: 26 Oct at 12 PM 2018
Despite a hawkish tone taken by the Bank of Canada (BoC) during the bank’s policy decision this week, the US Dollar to Canadian Dollar (USD/CAD) exchange rate saw some late week climbs as investors remained hungry for safe haven currencies. After opening the week at the level of 1.3088, USD/CAD saw tight movement for most of the week until the Bank of Canada’s policy decision, which knocked the pair to a weekly low of 1.2976. However, after that the US Dollar quickly recovered against the Canadian Dollar. At the time of writing...
British Pound to Japanese Yen Exchange Rate Sheds Last Week?s Gains on Brexit Jitters and ?Safe Haven? Demand Published: 4 Sep at 3 PM 2018

On Thursday, GBP/JPY briefly touched on a 3-week-high of 145.61, but ultimately ended the week nearer 143/84. This week so far GBP/JPY has continued to slide...

- ECB Removes Easing Bias but Extends QE Measures until SEPTEMBER – Euro (EUR) Exchange Rates Suffer - The Pound Euro (GBP/EUR) exchange rate climbed on Friday, capitalising on comments from European Central Bank (ECB) President Mario Draghi which downplayed the bank’s decision to remove its easing bias in the March statement.
