▌Goldman Sachs: Sterling has short-term value, but long-term uncertainty still faces
The market is betting on the possibility of a disorderly Brexit in the UK, and the probability of failing to reach an agreement is 30-35%, lower than the 40-45% probability of last week. In the scenario of an "orderly Brexit", the target level of EUR/GBP for the euro against the pound is expected to be 0.87, while in the scenario of "unable to reach an agreement" or "disorderly Brexit", the target level is expected to be 1.00. Although the market bet that the probability of failing to reach an agreement has declined, it is still too high, so it tends to short the euro against the pound EUR/GBP tactically. In recent times, the UK's large investment portfolio and foreign direct investment have led to an increase in the current account deficit. After Brexit, whether international investors will continue to be attracted by British assets still needs further observation.
