More than 70% of USD EM funds trading at the start of 2009 were still open in 2019 in comparison to less than half of UK and European funds.

Rumayyan \u2014 who served as a royal court advisor between 2015 and 2016 \u2014 owes much of his growing influence to how Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman positioned the state\u2019s SWF to drive his economic diversification ambitions. Rumayyan succeeds Khalid Al-Falih, who is also the kingdom\u2019s energy minister.

new floating customs exchange rate, automotive sales, and a new presidential health initiative all got some airtime.<\/p>\n<p><b>El Hekaya\u2019s Amr Adib phoned advisor to the finance minister for customs affairs <\/b>Magdy Abdel Aziz for his two cents about the ministry\u2019s recent decision to float the customs exchange rate. The customs exchange rate was previously fixed at EGP 16 \/ USD 1 as a measure to ensure access to strategic goods and manufacturing raw materials and reduce the tax burden, and the recent EGP appreciation means that importers will not feel a significant difference, Abdel Aziz told Adib (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jFtTsD0_nTI\">watch, runtime: 4:26<\/a>).

Inflows recorded USD 7 bn in 1Q2019 and USD 3.8 bn in 2Q2019, and are forecast to reach USD 7.3 bn by the end of 2019.<\/p>\n<p><b>Overall, August has been a nightmare for EM inflows: <\/b>We picked up a Bloomberg report <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/issues\/2019\/09\/01\/ipo-phase-state-privatization-program-kicked-2020-tawfik-says\/#tldr-story-05\">earlier this week<\/a> saying that \u201cAugust was a month to forget for emerging-market investors.\u201d EM stocks suffered USD 873 bn in losses during the month, and currencies experienced their worst monthly run since 1997. An increasing number of press reports, including one <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-emerging-rates\/down-down-they-go-emerging-central-banks-deliver-most-rate-cuts-in-a-decade-idUSKCN1VN1J2\">yesterday by Reuters<\/a>, is placing at least some of the blame on EM central banks moving ahead with the largest number of coordinated rate cuts in a decade. EM central bankers followed the lead of the US Fed, which cut its benchmark rate by 25 bps in July.<\/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\/bonds\/\">Bonds<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/emerging-markets\/\">emerging markets<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/equities\/\">equities<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/institute-of-international-finance\/\">Institute of International Finance<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/the-macro-picture\/\">THE MACRO PICTURE<\/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=\"594650\" 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=\"594650\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">5<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">EGYPT IN THE NEWS<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2019\/09\/03\/594650\/\">\r\n                                                    <\/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\/2019\/09\/03\/594650\/\" 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();
