GBP to IDR 2025 Forecasts

Analysis of recent sterling → rupiah forecasts for 2025. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest British pound to Indonesian rupiah performance and trends.

 

The GBP to IDR exchange rate has recently seen significant volatility, with the British pound (GBP) ending July with its lowest monthly performance in nearly two years. Analysts attribute this decline to concerns over the UK's fiscal health, characterized by policy setbacks and underwhelming economic data that suggest a challenging outlook for growth in the latter half of the year. If upcoming manufacturing PMI data substantiates that the UK factory sector is in contraction, the GBP may struggle to secure support in the near term.

Recent developments, such as the imposition of a 10% tariff on UK goods by the United States, signal increasing trade tensions that could further weigh on the pound. Currency experts highlight that the GBP's value is heavily influenced by domestic economic indicators and investor confidence, making it sensitive to political events and government policies, particularly in the context of Brexit. The uncertainty surrounding trade agreements and economic conditions in the Eurozone could also impact GBP demand.

Conversely, the Indonesian rupiah (IDR) has faced pressure from rising trade frictions, recently plummeting to historic lows against the US dollar and consequently affecting the GBP to IDR exchange rate. The IDR is under scrutiny as Indonesia grapples with the repercussions of trade tariffs imposed by the US, which have added to concerns over the country’s fiscal stance under President Prabowo Subianto. This backdrop of volatility has exacerbated the IDR's fall, compelling interventions by the central bank.

Currently, the GBP to IDR exchange rate is at 90-day lows near 21,734, which is 1.2% below its three-month average of 22,009. The pair has traded within a stable 2.5% range, suggesting limited fluctuations amid broader economic concerns. Market sentiment indicates that the future trajectory of both currencies rests heavily on the developments in international trade and domestic economic recovery efforts, underscoring the need for vigilance in international transactions involving GBP and IDR.
