Sterling Euro Parity Gbp Eur Parity ????

The phones have been off the hook today with a vast variety of clients worried that their upcoming transfers will end up costing a lot more than they first had budgeted for.

Sterling is currently up by 0.21% against the Euro which is better news than I imagined I would be giving to those of you that look to these posts for regular updates.

The Pound has indeed lost ground against a basket of major currencies over the past few months with the AUD and the NZD rates being hit the hardest, certainly not great news for those still in the U.K looking to emigrate ast some point in the near future.

All eyes for tommorow will be on the Bank of England minutes announced tomorrow at 09:30am which are expected to give an overview on the quanititative easing programme and any further mention of more in the future may lead to even more Sterling weakness.

This is one of the main factors pushing down the Pound as at present we are seeing other economies announcing that their recession is over, yet we are potentially still throwing money at the problem and money that is seemingly going down the drain??!!

Certainly a rocky week ahead for the Pound and I will ensure that you are updated as to movements in the morning however do call if you would rather speak to me in person.
