Currency news this week

This week's economic calendar is below, and in the UK we have 3 main releases: inflation, unemployment and retail sales, at 9.30 each morning from Tuesday to Thursday.

Each of these has the potential to impact the value of sterling.

Retail sales & inflation are also due out in the USA, and inflation in Europe, so we could see some volatility this week in GBP-EUR and GBP-USD. Call Currency Index on 0800 043 2623 for the latest rates and news.
