# USD/MYR: Ringgit strength seen extending lower – MUFG

> MUFG expects USD/MYR to keep trending lower toward 3.7000 by end-2026, citing Malaysia's ICT-led investment upcycle, stable inflation and a neutral Bank Negara policy rate of 2.75%. The bank also expects further Fed easing to narrow rate differentials and support foreign bond inflows.

## Why it matters

A sustained stronger ringgit would lower the local cost of USD-priced Malaysian imports, including palm oil. It is a forecast on currency direction and has little direct effect on feed commodity prices.
