The pound to euro history reveals that exchange rates in 2022 were not as low as they were during 2008 or since the Brexit referendum. Since the United Kingdom (UK) held a referendum on its European Union membership in June 2016, the British pound (GBP) weakened against the euro. From a high of 1.43 at the end of November 2015, the GBP to EUR exchange rate has remained below 1.2 since July 2016, sitting at 1.11 as of October 2020. By July 22, 2025, values had reached 1.15 euros per pound.

The average UK consumer also feels the pinch as inflation rates often rise to cover the shortfall of the pound. When the inflation rate rises, the price of imported goods goes up and the consumer ends up paying more. GBP to U.S. dollarSince 2016's referendum, the British pound (GBP) fell across the exchange. The GBP's fall against the Euro was also reflected against the U.S. dollar where the exchange rate in May 2016 (pre-referendum) of 1.46 dollars to the pound has fallen significantly.

The USD/EGP exchange rate rose to 49.0900 on July 23, 2025, up 0.04% from the previous session. Over the past month, the Egyptian Pound has strengthened 1.92%, but it's down by 1.66% over the last 12 months. Egyptian Pound - values, historical data, forecasts and news - updated on July of 2025.

The UK inflation rate was 3.4 percent in May 2025, down from 3.5 percent in the previous month, and the fastest rate of inflation since February 2024. Between September 2022 and March 2023, the UK experienced seven months of double-digit inflation, which peaked at 11.1 percent in October 2022. Due to this long period of high inflation, UK consumer prices have increased by over 20 percent in the last three years. As of the most recent month, prices were rising fastest in the communications sector, at 6.1 percent, but were falling in both the furniture and transport sectors, at -0.3 percent and -0.6 percent respectively.
The Cost of Living Crisis High inflation is one of the main factors behind the ongoing Cost of Living Crisis in the UK, which, despite subsiding somewhat in 2024, is still impacting households going into 2025. In December 2024, for example, 56 percent of UK households reported their cost of living was increasing compared with the previous month, up from 45 percent in July, but far lower than at the height of the crisis in 2022. After global energy prices spiraled that year, the UK's energy price cap increased substantially. The cap, which limits what suppliers can charge consumers, reached 3,549 British pounds per year in October 2022, compared with 1,277 pounds a year earlier. Along with soaring food costs, high-energy bills have hit UK households hard, especially lower income ones that spend more of their earnings on housing costs. As a result of these factors, UK households experienced their biggest fall in living standards in decades in 2022/23. Global inflation crisis causes rapid surge in prices The UK's high inflation, and cost of living crisis in 2022 had its origins in the COVID-19 pandemic. Following the initial waves of the virus, global supply chains struggled to meet the renewed demand for goods and services. Food and energy prices, which were already high, increased further in 2022. Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 brought an end to the era of cheap gas flowing to European markets from Russia. The war also disrupted global food markets, as both Russia and Ukraine are major exporters of cereal crops. As a result of these factors, inflation surged across Europe and in other parts of the world, but typically declined in 2023, and approached more usual levels by 2024.

During 2022, the GBP/USD exchange rate reached its lowest value ever recorded after the UK government announced its initial plans to combat inflation. Prices did increase again after these plans were turned back shortly after. As of July 22, 2025, one pound was valued at roughly 1.35 U.S. dollars.What affects an exchange rate?There are several factors that can impact an exchange rate. In terms of the current situation, the political and economic standings surrounding Brexit are probably the largest driver in the current form of the British pound. Other factors include inflation and interest rates, public debts, and deficits, as well as the country's export prices to import prices ratio.British pound to EuroSince the United Kingdom (UK) held a referendum on its European Union membership in June 2016, the British pound's (GBP) standing against the Euro has also been impacted. During the first half of 2020, the British pound against the Euro weakened overall.

The gross domestic product of the United Kingdom was around 2.56 trillion British pounds, an increase when compared to the previous year, when UK GDP amounted to about 2.54 trillion pounds. The significant drop in GDP visible in 2020 was due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with the smaller declines in 2008 and 2009 because of the global financial crisis of the late 2000s. Low growth problem in the UK Despite growing by 0.9 percent in 2024, and 0.4 percent in 2023 the UK economy is not that much larger than it was before the COVID-19 pandemic. Since recovering from a huge fall in GDP in the second quarter of 2020, the UK economy has alternated between periods of contraction and low growth, with the UK even in a recession at the end of 2023. While economic growth picked up somewhat in 2024, GDP per capita is lower than it was in 2022, following two years of negative growth. UK's global share of GDP falling As of 2024, the UK had the sixth-largest economy in the world, behind the United States, China, Japan, Germany, and India. Among European nations, this meant that the UK currently has the second-largest economy in Europe, although the economy of France, Europe's third-largest economy, is of a similar size. The UK's global economic ranking will likely fall in the coming years, however, with the UK's share of global GDP expected to fall from 2.16 percent in 2025 to 2.02 percent by 2029.  

Manufacturers sales of bicycles and other non-motorised cycles has seen a substantial rise in the past year. After drop in sales value in 2019, sales rose with the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, when demand for bicycles in the UK grew substantially. In 2022, the sales value totaled 121.8 billion pound sterling.

COVID-19 restrictions decimated the industry in 2020-21, bringing an end to a robust period of revenue growth for UK hotels thanks to a weak pound attracting international tourists and more Britons indulging in domestic retreats. Despite a strong tourism rebound, adverse economic conditions and elevated operating costs have constrained revenue and profit growth since 2022-23. Hotels’ revenue is expected to contract at a compound annual rate of 1.4% over the five years through 2024-25 to £24.1 billion, including an estimated 0.2% drop in 2024-25. Social distancing and lockdown measures resulted in hotels closing for a large chunk of 2020-21. Travel restrictions sunk international tourism, dissipating revenue, despite some support from staycations. Revenue surged in 2021-22 and 2022-23 due to the removal of COVID-19 restrictions and pent-up demand for holidaying, though it remained below pre-pandemic levels. The return of international tourists boosted recovery, while an increasing number of UK consumers opted for staycations. In 2023-24 and 2024-25, resilient tourism levels continue to support revenue. However, the lingering financial effects of the cost-of-living squeeze, poor weather and waning domestic demand are holding revenue down. Inbound tourism has continued to recover well in the two years through 2024-25, supporting revenue growth. The popularity of short-term rentals, including listings on Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking, is luring consumers away from hotels. The digital revolution is transforming the industry's operations, with online travel agents allowing independent hotels to target a broader customer base but also imposing commissions. These competitive pressures, combined with higher operating costs amid severe inflationary pressures and labour shortages, has weighed on the average profit margin. Hotels’ revenue is forecast to expand at a compound annual rate of 2.4% over the five years through 2029-30 to £27.2 billion. Growing tourism numbers, particularly international visitors, and improving confidence and disposable incomes will drive revenue growth. VisitBritain forecasts a record 43.4 million inbound visits to the UK in 2025. Platforms like Airbnb will continue to threaten hotels, though potential new regulations on short-term rentals may weaken this. Hotels will invest in technology and facilities to meet growing consumer preferences for unique experiences, wellness and sustainability. Severe staff shortages and tax hikes will continue to keep wage costs high, while intense competition will pressure prices, restricting profit growth.

The US dollar index of February 2025 was higher than it was in 2024, although below the peak in late 2022. This reveals itself in a historical graphic on the past 50 years, measuring the relative strength of the U.S. dollar. This metric is different from other FX graphics that compare the U.S. dollar against other currencies. The history of the DXY Index The index shown here – often referred to with the code DXY, or USDX – measures the value of the U.S. dollar compared to a basket of six other foreign currencies. This basket includes the euro, the Swiss franc, the Japanese yen, the Canadian dollar, the British pound, and the Swedish króna. The index was created in 1973, after the arrival of the petrodollar and the dissolution of the Bretton Woods Agreement. Today, most of these currencies remain connected to the United States' largest trade partners. The relevance of the DXY Index The index focuses on trade and the strength of the U.S. dollar against specific currencies. It less on inflation or devaluation, which is measured in alternative metrics like the Big Mac Index. Indeed, as the methodology behind the DXY Index has only been updated once – when the euro arrived in 1999 – some argue this composition is not accurate to the current state of the world. The price development of the U.S. dollar affects many things, including commodity prices in general.

A graphic that displays the dollar performance against other currencies reveals that economic developments had mixed results on currency exchanges. The third quarter of 2023 marked a period of disinflation in the euro area, while China's projected growth was projected to go up. The United States economy was said to have a relatively strong performance in Q3 2023, although growing capital market interest rate and the resumption of student loan repayments might dampen this growth at the end of 2023. A relatively weak Japanese yen Q3 2023 saw pressure from investors towards Japanese authorities on how they would respond to the situation surrounding the Japanese yen. The USD/JPY rate was close to ***, whereas analysts suspected it should be around ** given the country's purchase power parity. The main reason for this disparity is said to be the differences in central bank interest rates between the United States, the euro area, and Japan. Any future aggressive changes from, especially the U.S. Fed might lower those differences. Financial markets responded somewhat disappoint when Japan did not announce major plans to tackle the situation. Potential rent decreases in 2024 Central bank rates peak in 2023, although it is expected that some of these will decline in early 2024. That said, analysts expect overall policies will remain restrictive. For example, the Bank of England's interest rate remained unchanged at **** percent in Q3 2023. It is believed the United Kingdom's central bank will ease its interest rate in 2024 but less than either the U.S. Fed or the European Central Bank. This should be a positive development for the pound compared to either the euro or the dollar.

Inflation Rate in the United Kingdom increased to 3.60 percent in June from 3.40 percent in May of 2025. This dataset provides - United Kingdom Inflation Rate - actual values, historical data, forecast, chart, statistics, economic calendar and news.

In 2024, gross domestic product per capita in the United Kingdom was 37,044 British pounds, compared with 37,033 pounds in the previous year. In general, while GDP per capita has grown quite consistently throughout this period, there are noticeable declines, especially between 2007 and 2009, and between 2019 and 2020, due to the Global Financial Crisis, and COVID-19 pandemic, respectively. Why is GDP per capita stagnating when the economy is growing? During the last two years that GDP per capita fell and then stagnated in the UK, the overall economy grew by 0.4 percent in 2023 and 1.1 percent in 2024. While the overall UK economy is therefore larger than it was in 2022, the UK's population has grown at a faster rate, resulting in the lower GDP per capita figure. The long-term slump in the UK's productivity, as measured by output per hour worked, has meant that the gap between GDP growth and GDP per capita growth has been widening for some time. Economy remains the main concern of UK voters As of February 2025, the economy was seen as the main issue facing the UK, just ahead of immigration, health, and several other problems in the country. While Brexit was seen as the most important issue before COVID-19, and concerns about health were dominant throughout 2020 and 2021, the economy has generally been the primary facing voters issue since 2022. The surge in inflation throughout 2022 and 2023, and the impact this had on wages and living standards, resulted in a very tough period for UK households. As of January 2025, 57 percent of households were still noticing rising living costs, although this is down from a peak of 91 percent in August 2022.

As of the first half of 2023, the annual growth of the financial services industry's out-of-home (OOH) advertising in Egypt grew significantly by *** percent. Since 2021, the OOH advertising has been fluctuating notably due to the factors affecting the Egyptian economy. For instance, in 2021, the growth increased after the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in 2020, while the decline in 2022 was due to inflation and the drop in value of the Egyptian pound.

In the first half of 2023, the out-of-home (OOH) advertising in the education industry in Egypt saw a growth of **** percent. Since 2021, the OOH advertising for education has fluctuated due to the factors affecting the Egyptian economy. For instance, in 2021, the growth increased after the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in 2020, while the decline in 2022 was due to inflation and the drop in the value of the Egyptian pound.

In the first half of 2023, out-of-home (OOH) advertising in the business-to-business (B2B) industry in Egypt saw a decline of *** percent. Since 2021, the OOH advertising for the business-to-business (B2B) industry has fluctuated due to the factors affecting the Egyptian economy. For instance, in 2021, the growth increased slightly after the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in 2020, while the decline in 2022 was due to inflation and the drop in value of the Egyptian pound.

In the first half of 2023, the out-of-home (OOH) advertising in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) industry in Egypt saw a significant growth of ** percent. Since 2021, the OOH advertising for FMCG's has fluctuated significantly due to the factors affecting the Egyptian economy. For instance, in 2021, the growth increased after the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in 2020, while the decline in 2022 was due to inflation and the drop in value of the Egyptian pound.

In the first half of 2023, the out-of-home (OOH) advertising in the healthcare industry in Egypt did not grow. In the period under review, the OOH advertising for healthcare saw no significant growth due to the factors affecting the Egyptian economy. For instance, in 2021, the growth increased after the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in 2020, while the smaller increase in 2022 was due to inflation and the drop in the value of the Egyptian pound.

In 2023, demand for UK-built cars grew by 16.8 percent year-on-year to some 905,100 units. The United Kingdom exports nearly eight out of 10 cars assembled in UK plants. Vulnerability to trade disruptions Sales and exports of UK-manufactured vehicles began to fall in 2016. Slumping investments amid Brexit fears, as well as higher costs of production, are likely to have contributed to a slowdown in demand. Since the UK’s referendum on membership of the European Union, the British pound has fallen in value. This may have been expected to be good news for exporters, who garner more interest with relatively cheaper products. However, the weak pound is unfavorable for vehicle manufacturers due to their international supply chains. The European Union is the UK auto industry's leading trade partner, accounting for most of its car imports. EU markets also account for around six in 10 UK car exports. Inflation impacts new and used car sales The price inflation recorded in the United Kingdom impacted all product types, passenger cars included. New car purchases were the most affected by the soaring prices: Their consumer price index was at its highest in the past fifteen years in 2023. In contrast, the consumer price index for used car purchases decreased in 2023, down from its record-breaking 2022 value.
