The British sterling rate is rising on Tuesday after three days of decline amid news related to quarantine restrictions in the UK. The current pound rate is 1.3935. This correctional gain in the currency comes amid news that the UK has lifted quarantine requirements for passengers arriving from the US and the European Union from 2 August if they are fully vaccinated against the coronavirus. The exemptions apply only to those who received vaccines approved by the US and European regulators FDA and EMA. Analysts note that reducing the number of cases of coronavirus infection and easing restrictions on international travel could significantly improve the prospects for the country's economic recovery.
