A business with predictable quarterly supplier costs shouldn’t necessarily manage currency exposure in the same way as one whose requirements change month to month.

Spectrum builds strategies around your exposure, objectives and risk tolerance, with approaches that can prioritise certainty, flexibility or a balance of both.

The goal is a repeatable process that fits how your business actually trades, rather than reacting to every market movement.

Speak to Spectrum about reviewing your currency strategy.

GBP - The Pound gained support from stronger UK employment data, with unemployment falling to 4.7% and job creation exceeding expectations.

20/10/2026

GBP/USD has moved approximately 0.7% higher today, reaching its highest level in 35 days.

The main drivers behind the move are:

- Stronger-than-expected UK employment data - UK unemployment fell and wage growth remained resilient, increasing expectations that the Bank of England may continue raising interest rates.

- Reduced demand for the US Dollar - Markets are increasingly expecting the Federal Reserve to keep rates unchanged in the near term, which has weighed on the dollar.

- Widening interest rate expectations - Investors are pricing in a more hawkish Bank of England outlook relative to the Federal Reserve, providing support for Sterling.

- Positive sentiment ahead of next week's UK Budget - Markets are hopeful that the Budget will demonstrate fiscal discipline, supporting confidence in UK assets and the pound.

With UK inflation data still to come this week and the UK Autumn Budget next week, volatility could remain elevated.

If you have upcoming USD purchases to make, it may be a good opportunity to discuss securing current levels and protecting against any reversal.

The Euro faced pressure from France's debt concerns, with upcoming Eurozone business activity data potentially offering support despite ongoing financial uncertainty.

The U.S. Dollar fluctuated amid inflation concerns and Federal Reserve uncertainty, with geopolitical tensions potentially boosting safe-haven demand amid limited economic data.

Agree a €100,000 supplier invoice today, payable in 90 days, and the invoice value stays the same.

Its cost in pounds may not.

Until the payment is made, exchange-rate movements can change what that commitment ultimately costs your business.

That’s why payment terms and currency exposure should be considered together, especially when margins are tight.

Spectrum can help businesses plan future currency commitments using forward contracts and tailored risk strategies, giving greater certainty over upcoming costs.

Speak to Spectrum about managing your future payments.

GBP/USD has fallen close to its lowest level in the past 11 months, creating an attractive opportunity to convert USD back into GBP.

Key drivers:
- Strong US economic data has helped support demand for the US Dollar.

- Markets are expecting US interest rates to remain higher for longer, which has continued to underpin the Dollar.

- Higher US bond yields have attracted global investment flows into Dollar-denominated assets.

- Ongoing uncertainty surrounding UK fiscal policy and the upcoming Budget has created additional pressure on Sterling.

- Upcoming inflation and central bank announcements are likely to keep currency markets volatile over the coming weeks.

If you have USD revenues due to be converted into GBP in the coming weeks or months, now could be a good time to review your strategy and consider securing rates on at least a portion of your exposure.
