More than 500 fund and portfolio managers with aggregate AUM north of USD 8 tn will meet face-to-face today with C-suite execs from 173 companies spanning 26 countries from Egypt (good morning, friends) to the Middle East and frontier emerging markets. Due on stage this morning is Minister of Public Enterprise Khaled Badawi along with a who\u2019s-who of regional capital markets bosses. We\u2019ll also be taking in a panel on disruption in frontier markets. <strong>Look for coverage of the world\u2019s largest frontier and emerging markets investor conference starting tomorrow. <\/strong><\/p><p><strong>It\u2019s PMI day: <\/strong>The Emirates NBD Egypt PMI reading for February comes out this morning. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.markiteconomics.com\/Public\/Release\/PressReleases?language=en\">You\u2019ll find it here<\/a> once it lands.

Yesterday saw the two sides sign several MoUs, including one that would establish <strong>that long-awaited SAR 60 bn (USD 16 bn) joint investment fund<\/strong>. We have full details in the Speed Round, below.<\/p><p><strong>President Abdel Fattah El Sisi also spoke with US counterpart Donald Trump<\/strong>, who expressed his country's support for Egypt's ongoing war on terror, according to an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Egy.Pres.Spokesman\/photos\/a.153526355166753.1073741828.153405978512124\/348720005647386\/?type=3&amp;theater\">Ittihadiya statement<\/a>. The two also discussed ways to boost Egypt-US relations and ways to reach political settlements for current regional crises.<\/p><p><strong>This comes as the US says it will not be granting any country exemptions from the additional steel and aluminum import tariffs it plans to impose (including us, presumably)<\/strong>, according to the head of the White House\u2019s Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy, Peter Navarro, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/fee3fccc-1fbd-11e8-9efc-0cd3483b8b80\">the FT says (paywall)<\/a>. \u201cWhile there could be exceptions for specific business uses there would be no carve-out for individual countries.\u201d The EU has been threatening to take retaliatory measures against the move, which puts a levy of 25% on steel imports and 10% on aluminum imports from all countries. The US Commerce Department had also proposed a 53% fee on imports from 12 countries, including Egypt.<\/p><p><strong>Also on the diplomatic front, Sudan\u2019s ambassador to Egypt Abdel Mahmoud Abdel Halim is expected to return to Cairo today<\/strong>, Sudanese Foreign Minister Ibrahim Ghandour <a href=\"https:\/\/af.reuters.com\/article\/commoditiesNews\/idAFL5N1QL03T\">told Reuters<\/a>.

Sutherland takes a trip down memory lane to recount the details of Egypt\u2019s oil and gas history, culminating in the energy crunch that led the country to revert to being a net importer of gas. The crisis came hand in hand with a spiraling economy, but Sutherland sees a solution in the same combination. \u201cThe answer clearly lies in diversifying and properly monetizing Egypt\u2019s energy mix,\u201d Sutherland says, pointing to the country\u2019s vast resource pool \u2014 including hydrocarbon deposits, offshore gas fields, solar and wind energy, and waste. \u201cIn addition to adding energy resource options to its portfolio, the renewable sector offers a significant avenue for job creation,\u201d and could help Egypt \u201c[clean] up its own backyard by reducing pollution and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.<\/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\/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=\"630914\" 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=\"630914\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">10<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Diplomacy + Foreign Trade<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/03\/05\/egypt-has-not-received-ethiopias-plan-to-fill-gerd-reservoir-officials-say\/\">\r\n                            Egypt has not received Ethiopia\u2019s plan to fill GERD reservoir, officials say                        <\/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\/2018\/03\/05\/egypt-has-not-received-ethiopias-plan-to-fill-gerd-reservoir-officials-say\/\" 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();
