The hint from central bankers in other EMs is that they too will move to cut rates, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2019-06-14\/emerging-market-investors-prepare-for-fresh-wave-of-rate-cuts\">Davidson Santana writes for Bloomberg<\/a> in a piece that is surely good news for the continued competitiveness of Egyptian debt.<\/p>\n<p><b>Who else is looking to make cuts? <\/b>South Korea, Brazil and Turkey all seen as taking a move towards interest rate cuts in the short-term. In the medium-term, Santana expects Mexico and South Africa are likely to follow suit.<\/p>\n<p><b>Which central bank isn\u2019t likely to make rate cuts? Ours. <\/b>Before the release last week of May inflation figures \u2014 which showed <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2019\/06\/11\/annual-inflation-increases-to-14-1-in-may\/\">annual headline inflation rising unexpectedly<\/a> to 14.1% from 13% in April \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2019\/05\/20\/when-will-we-see-capex-spending-pick-up\/\">analysts we polled<\/a> saw our central bank leaving interest rates on hold until nearer the end of the year. The May inflation figures and the inflationary impact of energy subsidy cuts due by July (to say nothing of turbulence in global markets) have <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2019\/06\/12\/what-were-tracking-on-12-june-2019\/\">analysts saying<\/a> it is highly unlikely that the CBE\u2019s Monetary Policy Committee will move to cut interest rates when it next meets on Thursday, 11 July.<\/p>\n<p><b>That will likely make it another lost year for capex spending: <\/b>With business paying credit-card levels of interest on facilities to fund new investment, don\u2019t expect a rush to borrow anytime soon. <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2019\/06\/13\/businesses-eager-for-interest-rates-to-return-to-pre-float-levels-to-boost-investment\/\">Nine companies we spoke with last week<\/a> tell us that rates should be in the 10-13% range (vs c. 20% on corporate borrowing now) before we can see sustained capex and consumer demand pick up. Most are waiting for rates to go down (and \/ or for factory utilization to pick up on the back of rising consumer demand) before they borrow.<\/p>\n<p><b>EM analysts are looking to the Fed this Tuesday and Wednesday: <\/b>As emerging markets look to stimulate their economies with rate cuts, their eyes will turn to the US Federal Open Market Committee, which will meet this Tuesday and Wednesday to review interest rates. The US Fed\u2019s decision this week will have a critical impact on how carry traders see local EM currencies.<\/p>\n<p><b>Which would mean what for the EGP?<\/b> The carry trade has played a part in the appreciation seen by the EGP this year.

Comprising interviews with 25,000 internet users in over two dozen countries, the study showed marked increase in distrust among internet users from a year ago, with 78% feeling concerned about their online privacy, and 53% stating that their concern had increased from a year ago.<\/p>\n<p><b>We\u2019ve probably seen fake news, and there\u2019s a strong chance we believed it:<\/b> 81% of the people surveyed in Egypt claim they have seen fake news and 60% say they initially believed it. While social media was regarded as the largest purveyor of fake news, 62% of Egyptians surveyed said they had also encountered it in mainstream media.<\/p>\n<p><b>Egypt and other EMs would prefer their data to be stored overseas:<\/b> 58% of Egyptians and majorities in Hong Kong, Indonesia, Brazil and Mexico wanted their data stored outside of their own countries, compared to only 23% in North America and 35% throughout Europe.<\/p>\n<p><b>We are enthusiastic about cryptocurrencies:<\/b> 56% of the Egyptians surveyed plan to use or purchase cryptocurrencies within the year, well above the global rate of 25%. Their long-term value as an investment is regarded as being much higher in EM than in developed markets.<\/p>\n<p><b>And we are more knowledgeable than most about blockchain technology:<\/b> While 22% of global citizens have some familiarity with blockchain, Egypt stands at 33% \u2014 behind China at 48% but above France and the UK at 15%.<\/p>\n\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\/worth-reading\/\">worth reading<\/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=\"599010\" 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=\"599010\">\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\/06\/16\/egypt-in-the-news-on-16-june-2019\/\">\r\n                            Egypt in the News on 16 June 2019                        <\/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\/06\/16\/egypt-in-the-news-on-16-june-2019\/\" 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();
