Expat Chat Ep 53 - Where To Next For The Australian Dollar

Welcome to the fifty third episode of #Expatchat where we discuss the latest tax and financial issues affecting an #Australianexpat. In today's Expat Chat we talk about where to next for the Australian dollar. With the recent weakness of the Australian dollar against the US Dollar many Australian expats (especially those who earn their salary in either USD or a currency pegged to the US Dollar) are wondering does it have further to fall and/or should they be transferring funds to USD. The recent risk off strategy with investors has meant that the USD Index is currently trading at a 20 year high but what does that mean for other currencies like the Pound, Euro, Yen and many other currencies? In this episode we run through the following topics: • What’s causing the weakness in the Australian dollar? • How is the US Dollar performing against other currencies? • What does a risk off approach mean? • How does a recession affect the currencies? • How do interest rates work with the currencies? • Is there more volatility to come with the Australian Dollar?
