AUD to ZAR 2026 Forecasts

Analysis of recent aussie → rand forecasts for 2026. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest Australian dollar to South African rand performance and trends.

 

AUD/ZAR Outlook:

Slightly positive, but likely to move sideways, as the rate is above its recent average but lacks a clear driver.

Key drivers:

  • Rate gap: The Reserve Bank of Australia recently raised interest rates, which typically supports the AUD against the ZAR, where rates remain high but stable.
  • Risk/commodities: The recent increase in oil prices supports the ZAR, as South Africa is a key player in commodity exports, impacting its currency's strength.
  • China's economic impact: Continued demand for Australian commodities from China appears to be stabilizing, but uncertainty remains about global economic conditions.

Range:

The AUD/ZAR is expected to hold within its recent 3-month range, given the stable trading environment.

What could change it:

  • Upside risk: A further increase in Australian interest rates could drive the AUD higher.
  • Downside risk: A decline in commodity prices may weaken the ZAR, pulling the AUD/ZAR lower.
