Are you prepared if the pound moves against you?

UK politics has shifted again and sterling is already under pressure following Keir Starmer’s resignation.

If you are planning to buy a property overseas or make a large international transfer, this is not just another political headline.

Movements in sterling can directly affect how much your money is worth abroad. Imagine finding your dream home for €400,000, only to see the pound weaken before completion. A 1% move in the exchange rate could add around €4,000 to the cost of your purchase, taking thousands straight from your budget.

Tom Holian, our Dealing Director with over 20 years in foreign exchange, breaks down what is happening this week and what it could mean for your transfer.

The exchange rate you see today might not be the rate you get tomorrow.

When you're buying property abroad or planning a large international payment, currency fluctuations can impact your budget.

A forward contract can help you lock in an exchange rate to make the most of your overseas payments or transfers.

Last week the European Central Bank raised interest rates for the first time since 2023. This week, the Fed and the Bank of England follow.

When central banks move in sequence like this, currencies feel it. For anyone buying property in Europe or moving a large sum into euros, that matters. A 1% shift in GBP/EUR on a €400,000 purchase is around £3,500.

Could lower energy costs bring some relief to household budgets?

A potential ceasefire extension between the US and Iran has pulled oil prices sharply lower, raising hopes that energy costs could start to stabilise.

Why does this matter? Lower oil prices can help reduce the cost of fuel, transport and energy over time, which may ease pressure on household spending.

However, uncertainty remains. The agreement is still awaiting President Trump's approval and the Strait of Hormuz is not yet fully open.
