FEI members have been meeting with FIAT executives, who are now deciding between Egypt, Morocco, and South Africa as possible locations to establish a manufacturing plant, he said, adding that <strong>both producers have inquired about the timeline and framework of the Automotive Directive<\/strong>, as well as the possibility for using locally-manufactured parts for their operations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Automotive Directive driving the good news: <\/strong>Reports that the Automotive Directive <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2018\/03\/20\/auto-importers-are-still-haggling-over-the-fine-print-of-the-automotive-directive\/\">would be issued some time in 2018<\/a> has been responsible for a recent wave of news for the industry. <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2018\/03\/22\/auto-parts-manufacturers-in-talks-with-renault-volkswagen-to-make-and-export-parts-to-regional-assembly-facilities\/\">Last week we learned<\/a> that Volkswagen has reportedly already tapped three Egyptian manufacturers \u2014 IDACO, MOBICA, and El Teriak Industrial Group \u2014 to become part of its global parts supply chain, serving demand at assembly facilities across the region.

Credit agency Moody\u2019s has given its approval for the agreement, with its managing director for credit strategy saying that it would be credit positive and give regional trade greater stability.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Others, however, are finding flaws with the numbers.<\/strong> The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development <a href=\"http:\/\/unctad.org\/en\/PublicationsLibrary\/ser-rp-2017d15_en.pdf\">(UNCTAD) estimates (pdf)<\/a> the total annual gain would be USD 4.6 bn, or 0.2% of continental GDP, even if all tariffs were scrapped. The signatories have only committed to cut tariffs on 90% of goods, suggesting that some of the most onerous taxes may remain, writes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/7625df90-2de1-11e8-a34a-7e7563b0b0f4\">Steve Johnson for the FT<\/a>. The AU\u2019s analysis is predicated on all of its 55 members signing up to the CFTZ, but 10 countries, including South Africa and Nigeria \u2014 the continent\u2019s largest economies \u2014 have not signed it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It may not be much compared to other regional treaties, but it\u2019s a good start:<\/strong> By scope and size the agreement does not come close to its counterparts NAFTA, the EU and the Asian-Pacific regional freetrade zones. Analysts, including John Ashbourne, Africa economist at Capital Economics, see that the agreement provides a good jump off point by tackling two of the biggest problems in African trade. The first being, that at 19.9% of African exports going to other continental markets, intra-continental trade is low. The second, by boosting trade among African nations, countries will reduce their dependence on extractive commodities, which are volatile.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Meanwhile, Egyptian healthcare companies are looking to be among the first to take advantage of the agreement.<\/strong> Representatives from 30 local pharma companies will be meeting with 16 companies from Somalia to explore potential cooperation on trade, according to Medical Exports Council <a href=\"https:\/\/alborsanews.com\/2018\/03\/26\/1095774\">Chair Rasha Nasr<\/a>. The companies are hoping to benefit from the CFTZ agreement, she added.<\/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\/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=\"631837\" 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=\"631837\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">7<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Image of the Day<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/03\/28\/the-allure-of-the-sunken-cities-of-egypt-exhibition-is-about-more-than-artifacts\/\">\r\n                            The allure of the Sunken Cities of Egypt exhibition is about more than artifacts                        <\/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\/28\/the-allure-of-the-sunken-cities-of-egypt-exhibition-is-about-more-than-artifacts\/\" 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();

Business schools must do more to promote the return on investment of an MBA for companies, according to Scott DeRue, dean of Michigan\u2019s Ross School of Business. For one thing, an MBA graduate is a hot commodity, with 72% of companies surveyed by business school entrance exam administrator <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gmac.com\/market-intelligence-and-research\/research-library\/employment-outlook\/2017-year-end-employer-poll.aspx\">the Graduate Management Admission Council<\/a> saying they plan to recruit MBA graduates this year, up from 69% last year. Then there is competition from other degrees, as companies look for more specialized skills. \u201c40% of employers surveyed said they expect to hire more people with specialist skills, such as those offered by master in management and master in finance degrees, compared with 28% who said they would hire more for the generalist teaching of an MBA.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Beyond competition, there\u2019s also the length of time a graduate needs to pan out for the company. <\/strong>As with any return on investment, the sooner it comes, the better. \u201cAn MBA hire is typically negative until the third year of employment, which puts an onus on the school to explain the rewards of hiring their students,\u201d says DeRue. And if MBA selections do not pan out, companies, especially in tech, might opt to train employees in-house. \u201cAmazon says, \u2018If you can provide students with the right mix of business and data analytics skills, then we will have them,\u201d he added.<\/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=\"631843\" 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=\"631843\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">11<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Worth watching<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/03\/28\/why-the-fk-does-swearing-feel-so-fking-good\/\">\r\n                            Why the f**k does swearing feel so f**king good?
