- Risk/commodities: Elevated geopolitical tensions sustain risk-off sentiment, supporting safe-havens and pressuring risk-sensitive currencies.
- Global factors: Widespread risk aversion dominates markets, supported by heightened geopolitical tensions.
⚠️ What could change it
- Upside risk: A shift toward risk-on sentiment could support a rebound in NZD/EUR.
- Downside risk: Further escalation in geopolitical tensions or worsening risk conditions could deepen the decline.
BER suggests shopping around for the lowest margin provider may help reduce overall transfer costs and offset less favourable exchange rates.
