Macro view

Egypt in focus

🔔 Egypt plans to finalize within a month a new pipeline of about twenty state-owned companies to be listed on the Egyptian Exchange, reviving its privatization drive as part of broader reforms to restructure state assets and deepen capital market, a senior government official told EnterpriseAM.The move matters because listing minority stakes allows the government to raise funds gradually, tap strong domestic liquidity, and broaden investor participation in a more flexible way than full strategic sales.

💸 Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly announced a EGP 40.3 billion social support package to cushion households from rising prices ahead of Ramadan, combining immediate cash transfers, food subsidy top-ups, and expanded healthcare support with a second phase of wage and tax measures due in the new fiscal year. The move is meant to ease seasonal spending pressures while signaling a broader government push to address cost-of-living strains beyond the holy month.

That’s it for today.
