Sterling Exchange Rate

Post by Super Joe »

Pound is on a steady rise, currently 65.2. About as high as it's been for 7 months.

The Nation yesterday was warning about a new Asian currency crisis due to the imminent collapse of the Vietnamese Dong.

Yes that's great news, however for some reason the banks seems to be quoting slightly less for the TT rate, not seen 65 yet but 64+. But still great to see it climbing

  • The graph in the OP is rather misleading as the early part of it is using the offshore rates.

    Below is one of my graphs based on the daily closing "onshore" rates in Thailand from 1st Jan this year to close of business on 13th June.

    The rate now is getting back to the "onshore" levels seen in the early part of this year, but this is far more due to the decline of the THB (along with other Asian currencies) rather than any strength in the pound.
