UAE Expatriates Benefit from Favorable Exchange Rates for Asian Remittances
UAE expatriates are finding exceptional value in sending money home, thanks to favorable exchange rates. Several Asian currencies have weakened, creating a rare opportunity for remittances.
The Philippine peso, while slightly stronger than yesterday, remains favorable for remittances to the Philippines. Meanwhile, the Pakistani rupee is at a multi-week low against the dirham, benefiting families in Pakistan. Similarly, the Indian rupee is also at a multi-week low, boosting purchasing power for families in India.
It's important to note that exchange rates fluctuate daily. Therefore, it's advisable to compare current rates and fees before sending money to these countries. Waiting a day or two could potentially secure better mortgage rates, but urgent transfers should be done promptly to avoid risks associated with exchange rate changes.
