EBRD reportedly interested in funding USD 2 bn logistics zone in Six October

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) has reportedly expressed interest in funding a part of the USD 2 bn Six October logistics zone, Transport Ministry sources tell Al Borsa. The European Investment Bank has apparently also completed a feasibility study on the project, which is expected to be tendered to the private sector before the end of the year, the source added. Transport Minister Hisham Arafat is due to travel to the UK this month to drum up investor interest in the zone.
