The GBP/TRY pair combines the stable pound sterling and the volatile Turkish lira. The lira has weakened substantially in recent years due to high inflation and unconventional monetary policy; the pound, by contrast, retains its status as a reliable G10 reserve currency. The pair's rate is mainly determined by lira movements - the pound acts as a relatively stable anchor. ATM24 calculates the current GBP/TRY rate and fixes it when agreeing on an application.

British pound sterling (GBP): stability with history

The pound is one of the oldest national currencies. The Bank of England manages monetary policy: the key rate, inflation forecasts, and economic growth projections move GBP in the short term. Trade relations with the EU after Brexit add an additional source of uncertainty, but overall the pound remains one of the four or five most traded currencies in the world. The United Kingdom's stable financial system and London as a global financial center support confidence in GBP.

Turkish lira (TRY): inflationary pressure and return to orthodoxy

The Turkish lira underwent a denomination in 2005 - six zeros were removed from the "old" lira. In 2021-2022, the Central Bank of Turkey cut rates against the backdrop of inflation, leading to a sharp TRY weakening. In 2023, after a change of CB leadership, policy reversed: the rate was sharply raised to contain inflation. The lira remains sensitive to political signals and CB decisions - each regulator comment can move the rate in the short term.

The GBP/TRY pair: why the lira weakens against the pound

The long-term GBP/TRY trend is upward - in other words, one pound buys ever more lira as Turkish inflation erodes TRY's purchasing power. In the short term the pair may correct when the lira strengthens following a Central Bank of Turkey rate hike. For tourists and those sending money to Turkey, this means it is better to exchange pounds closer to the time of use rather than holding a large amount in TRY in advance.

I was in Dubai and needed dirhams. I only have cards from Russian banks, and they aren’t accepted in the UAE so I couldn’t withdraw money. I found this firm on the internet; they helped me get dirhams using a QR code at an ATM near the hotel. Everything was prompt and very fast, I recommend them! Special thanks to manager Ekaterina, she explained everything and helped!
