USD to GYD: 209-211 band, stable. USD to JMD: 158 range. USD to TTD: 6.78. USD to BBD: 2.00 pegged. USD to HTG: tracking gourde volatility, 132 range, watch for further weakening as electoral uncertainty develops. USD to GHS: 14 range, slight strengthening trend continuing. USD to NGN: 1580 band, still volatile on monetary policy signals. USD to KES: 129. USD to ZAR: 18.30, slight strengthening on inbound-tourism story.

Movement this week. NGN volatility persisting — if you are sending to Nigeria, time the transfer mid-week and check the rate within an hour of executing. GHS continuing its slow strengthening trend on remittance volume and the Bank of Ghana’s restructuring discipline. HTG is the one to watch — the electoral campaign opening will produce political uncertainty pricing in. If you are supporting family in Haiti, send earlier in the week rather than later, and consider sending larger amounts less frequently to minimize FX-spread exposure.

Pegged currencies (BBD, ECCB countries at 2.70) move with USD by definition. Always check live executable rates before committing the transfer.
