that he\u2019s been keeping from the public is a major stake in the company <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/about.chubb.com\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Chubb<\/a>, an ins. business operating in 54 countries. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Berkshire Hathaway has accumulated about 26 m shares of the company for approximately USD 6.7 bn<\/strong>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2024\/05\/15\/business\/warren-buffett-berkshire-hathaway-chubb-stake\/index.html\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">CNN<\/a> reports. This information was revealed after a year of being kept confidential as it was growing the stake.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>As expected, lots of investors followed this move. <\/strong>The Oracle of Omaha is synonymous with investment success so it comes as no surprise that other investors frequently <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2024\/05\/04\/investing\/berkshire-hathaway-meeting\/index.html\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">mimic his choices<\/a>. The Chubb acquisition was no exception, seeing as the company\u2019s stock rose by over 8% in Wednesday\u2019s after-hours trading. Chubb made the rounds in business news in March after it underwrote Donald Trump\u2019s 92 mn appeal bond in Jean Carrol\u2019s defamation case.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Berkshire Hathaway\u2019s investment strategy is solid. <\/strong>This acquisition is familiar ground for the company, considering that it already has three investment company subsidiaries. It seems to also be leaning away from consumer products, like Apple and HP (for both of which it significantly sold shares), and more towards financial companies like American Express and Bank of America. <\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/for-your-commute\/\">FOR YOUR COMMUTE<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/worklife\/\">worklife<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"620319 advertiser\" class=\"issue-section enterprise-adv\">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                            \"\r\n            id=\"620319\">\r\n            \r\n            <div class=\"story__body\">\r\n\r\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2024\/05\/19\/620319\/\">\r\n                    <div class=\"photo photo--above\">\r\n                                            <\/div>\r\n                <\/a>\r\n\r\n                \n<article id=\"post-620319\" class=\"content-area-description single-story post-620319 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-advertiser wpautop entry\">\n\n\t\n\t<div class=\"entry-content\">\n\n\t\t\n\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mashreq.com\/en\/uae\/about-us\/our-company\/awards-accolades\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ent.news\/ads\/imgs\/219.jpg?ssl=1\"><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"620320\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"620320\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">3<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">ENTERPRISE RECOMMENDS<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2024\/05\/19\/a-crime-thriller-that-takes-us-to-modern-day-ireland\/\">\r\n                            A crime thriller that takes us to modern day Ireland                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2024\/05\/19\/a-crime-thriller-that-takes-us-to-modern-day-ireland\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();

It also aims to create some 150k direct and indirect jobs over the course of four years. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What\u2019s been accomplished so far:<\/strong> Since its launch in October 2022, Ebda has so far helped 23 projects worth EGP 62.5 bn in different sectors go live as a first phase, according to recent data. The second phase is set to include 24 projects.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>More is coming in the pipeline:<\/strong> Ebda is expected to announce several new potential investment projects soon, with priority being given to hospitality, agriculture, and related industries due to their significant role in the economy, Ebda member Ahmed Badra told Enterprise.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>How will the new fund drive investments in the industrial sector and improve access to <\/strong><strong>financing?<\/strong> The initiative offers financing of up to EGP 50 mn, while also offering ready feasibility studies for potential investments, which helps to expedite implementation, Ebda member Ahmad Badra told Enterprise. Although the government launched a new EGP 120 bn subsidized loan program for manufacturers in freezones and agriculture and renewable energy companies, carrying a 15% interest rate <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/c0fbf63f-f196-4ab6-acac-529210bde7e3\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">last month<\/a>, access to financing remains difficult for industry players, Badra said. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The market needs more investments:<\/strong> The Egyptian economy needs a renewed focus on local manufacturing as a core component of the economy, which is what the Ebda initiative is designed to achieve, Badra said. Ebda\u2019s involvement in managing the Nile Fund for Industrial Development is hoped to encourage investors to ramp up their investments in local industry, which will eventually help cut down on our import bill and FX reliance for manufacturing, Badra explained.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Raw materials and production inputs are a key priority:<\/strong> Ensuring that raw materials and production inputs are readily available for local industry should be top of mind, particularly for industries related to renewable energy, including locally producing solar panels, as well as the iron and cable industries, which are mostly reliant on imports, Badra said. Improving the availability of production inputs for these sectors will go a long way towards weaning manufacturers off imports as the government hopes to encourage more exports. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>REMEMBER-<\/strong> Egypt relies primarily on imports for mineral and chemical products, which together account for some 25% of our annual total imports.
