Abstract

While there are some existing literatures exploring the relationship between the pandemic of COVID-19 and the currency market, there is few research explicitly studied how the epidemic affects the exchange rate of British pounds. This study uses quantitative research method to examine whether the trends of COVID-19 pandemic influence the fluctuations in the exchange rate of British pounds. In order to find whether there is relationship between the exchange rate of British pounds and the pandemic trends, correlation analysis by excel was used. The research focus is on the exchange rate of British pounds with 20 foreign currencies and daily infections, deaths and fully vaccinated cases. When infection and mortality rates rise in a country, the pound will depreciate in value due to a range of government measures such as household orders and closure of non-essential shops, while when vaccination and cure rates rise, the value of the pound will generally strengthen.
