What impacts the USD/ILS exchange rate
Trading the US dollar against the Israeli new shekel, the USD/ILS is considered an exotic pair to trade in the forex market. The exchange rate of this currency pair is heavily influenced by the release of key economic data from the US and Israel, including CPI, industrial production, GDP, unemployment rate, business confidence, consumer confidence and trade balance. In addition, changes to the monetary policy or interest rates by the Federal Reserve and the Bank of Israel also drive fluctuations in the value of the USD and the ILS respectively. Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East region also have a significant impact on the value of the Israeli new shekel and can drive volatility in the USD/ILS currency pair. In September 2020, the USD/ILS weakened to a 12-year low as the Shekel appreciated against the US dollar, despite factors like the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic, economic recession due to the pandemic and political instability.
