🇪🇺 About the Euro (EUR)

The Euro is the official currency of 20 of the 27 European Union member states, collectively known as the eurozone, and is used by over 340 million people. It is the second most held reserve currency after the US Dollar.

Issuing authority: European Central Bank (ECB), based in Frankfurt.

🇬🇧 About the British Pound (GBP)

The British Pound Sterling is the oldest currency still in use today and the fourth most traded in the world. London's status as a global financial centre gives the pound outsized importance relative to the size of the UK economy.

Issuing authority: Bank of England.

What Moves the EUR/GBP Exchange Rate?

The EUR to GBP rate reflects the relative strength of two different economies, so it responds to developments on both sides of the pair.

Euro (EUR): ECB monetary policy, eurozone inflation and growth figures, the economic health of large members like Germany and France, and political stability across the bloc.

British Pound (GBP): Bank of England rate decisions, UK inflation and wage growth, the strength of the London financial sector, and post-Brexit trade developments.

When demand for the Euro rises relative to the British Pound, the EUR/GBP rate increases, meaning each EUR buys more GBP. The opposite happens when the British Pound strengthens.
