Here’s how the EUR to GBP rate has moved over the last 12 months:
This pair reflects how markets weigh the strength of the Eurozone against the UK, and those perceptions shift constantly. The euro often trades as the steadier currency. The pound tends to react more quickly to local developments.
When the European Central Bank holds steady and the Bank of England tightens, the pound often gains. But timing matters just as much as direction. A slow-moving ECB doesn’t necessarily weaken the euro, unless the BoE unexpectedly moves to tighten policy further.
The euro represents 20 countries, but German data carries the most weight. Misses in German industrial output or inflation can pull the euro lower, even if other parts of the Eurozone look stable.
The pound tends to swing more on domestic news, things like elections, tax changes, and even leadership speculation. The euro is less exposed to single-country events, but often reacts more slowly across the board.
Since 2022, energy markets have had a clear impact. Rising European gas prices can weaken the euro. On the UK side, a widening trade deficit or import pressure can weigh on GBP.
