Markets · updated 28 August 2026

## EUR/NZD: what has moved in recent months

Two near-simultaneous tightenings: the ECB on 11 June, with its deposit rate taken to 2.25%, and the RBNZ on 8 July, at 2.50% — its first hike in more than three years. The rate gap, long heavily in New Zealand's favour, has narrowed sharply since 2024.

EUR

### The ECB tightened in June, then waited

On 11 June 2026 the European Central Bank raised its deposit rate by 25 basis points to 2.25% — its first hike since 2023 — in response to an imported energy shock, taking the main refinancing rate to 2.40%. On 23 July it left all three rates unchanged without committing to a path. Euro area inflation came in at 2.9% in July after 2.8% in June, and August PMIs moved clearly back into expansion (composite at 52.1). Rate markets price a further hike on 10 September at roughly 80%.

NZD

### First hike in more than three years

On 8 July 2026 the Reserve Bank of New Zealand raised its Official Cash Rate to 2.50%, unanimously — its first increase in more than three years. It cited inflation still above its 2% target and activity expected to strengthen. The New Zealand dollar gained around 3.5% against the US dollar over August, reaching 0.5978 on the 25th.

EUR → NZD

### What it means for you

The kiwi gained 3.5% against the US dollar in August, driven by the greenback's turn more than by its own fundamentals. A dollar rebound would quickly erase that advantage: better not to concentrate a large conversion on a single date.

**Benchmark on 28 August 2026:** 1 EUR ≈ 1.9480 NZD. The converter at the top of this page shows the live rate.

The economics of the pair

## EUR/NZD: the ECB versus the RBNZ

The rate between the **euro (EUR)** and the **New Zealand dollar (NZD)** pits two very different economies against each other. Its dynamics depend first on the monetary policy gap between the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ): when the RBNZ steers its rates above those of the euro area, the yield offered by the NZD tends to support it against the euro.

The New Zealand dollar is a so-called « cyclical » currency and sensitive to commodities. New Zealand's economy relies heavily on its agricultural and dairy exports: the strength of these prices, as well as Asian demand, strongly influences the NZD. Conversely, the euro plays the role of a major reserve currency and remains more stable, which gives the EUR/NZD pair marked volatility.

In practice, the NZD often rises when global risk appetite is high (optimistic markets) and falls during risk-aversion phases, when investors favour more defensive assets. Following the ECB calendar, the RBNZ calendar and the global risk climate all help to place the pair's trend before triggering an exchange.

Frequently asked questions

## Frequently asked questions about EUR/NZD exchange

There is no universal ideal moment. The EUR/NZD rate depends on the monetary policy gap between the ECB (European Central Bank) and the RBNZ (Reserve Bank of New Zealand), on risk appetite and on commodity prices. The New Zealand dollar, a high-yield currency, tends to strengthen when New Zealand rates are higher than those of the euro area. Monitor the real rate continuously and trigger your exchange at the moment that suits you.

The EUR/NZD pair is influenced by the monetary policy divergence between the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ), by the prices of agricultural and dairy products essential to the New Zealand economy, as well as by global risk appetite. The NZD is a cyclical currency that often rises when markets are optimistic and falls when risk aversion dominates.
