EUR/GBP to settle at 0.85 by late-2021 after a troublesome spring - Rabobank

FXStreet notes that GBP strength has been gathering momentum allowing the pound to top the G10 performance table in the year to date. Nonetheless, economists at Rabobank see hurdles for GBP heading into the spring though expect the EUR/GBP pair to settle in the 0.85 zone by year-end.

“Issues related to red tape at the UK’s borders and problems connected with the Northern Ireland protocol have ensured that Brexit continues to cast shadows.”

“Another hurdle for GBP could be the Scottish elections in May. If the SNP performs well, as expected, the possibility of another Independence Referendum will rise. Scottish press are reporting on the possibility of an ‘illegal’ vote potentially this year. This could raise further questions about the state of the union in the UK.” 

“While the UK economy will be opening up this year, the PM’s plan is more cautious than many had expected and this could also hinder the pace of the economic bounce back.”

“Bullish momentum in the pound has pushed EUR/GBP through our long held 0.87 medium-term target. The move may have further to run in the near-term. However, we see bumps in the road ahead and see scope for pullbacks in the spring before EUR/GBP settles in the 0.85 area later in the year.”
