Also worth your attention this morning is news of what the Investment Ministry is positioning as a sweeping (and imminent) overhaul of the Companies Act. We have more on all three stories in today\u2019s Speed Round, below.<\/p><p><strong>We can all digest the news tomorrow as we mark a national holiday<\/strong>. Banks and the stock exchange will be closed in observance of 25 January. Enjoy the break \u2014 our next long weekend isn\u2019t until April, folks. Enterprise is off tomorrow, but we\u2019ll be back first thing Sunday morning.<\/p><p><a class=\"content-anchor\" id=\"tldr-story-08\"><\/a> <strong>As we slide into the long weekend, we are grateful for:<\/strong> Challenging conversations with good, smart friends. Great coffee. Winter weather in Egypt. The challenge of lifting heavy things (mentally and physically). The prospect of three uninterrupted days with the people we love the most. <strong>How about you? <\/strong>Drop us a line at editorial@enterprise.press and we\u2019ll run some of the best answers next Thursday\u2014and, if things go well, every Thursday thereafter.<\/p><p>Further afield, the party continues in Davos, where <strong>CEOs from the finance industry report that \u201c<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/6a892d1e-0013-11e8-9650-9c0ad2d7c5b5\"><strong>the party is really good<\/strong><\/a><strong>.\u201d <\/strong>(Yes, that\u2019s a direct quote. Even CEOs are finance bros at heart.) Bosses of major institutions including Blackstone\u2019s Stephen Schwarzman and Credit Susie\u2019s Tidjane Thiam said they were bullish on the outlook for the global economy, with the FT quoting them as suggesting \u201cthe risk of global markets unravelling in the face of geopolitical risks is overstated.\u201d Or as Schwarzman put it: \u201cIt\u2019s a time of enormous ebullience, part of which was created by really good economic growth.\u201d Speaking metaphorically (we think), he added that while there is the risk of a reckoning, \u201cThe party is really so good, they\u2019re serving really good food and drink, you are making money and it\u2019s really not hard.\u201d Cheers, Steve.<\/p><p><strong>Or is it? <\/strong>As the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/as-markets-and-growth-steam-ahead-signs-of-caution-emerge-1516740176\">Wall Street Journal<\/a> reports, there is a \u201cstrong awareness\u201d in Davos this year that \u201c<strong>geopolitical risks <\/strong>\u2014 including that of a potential conflict with nuclear-armed North Korea and a U.S. trade war with China \u2014 <strong>aren\u2019t being adequately reflected in financial-asset prices<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p><p><a class=\"content-anchor\" id=\"tldr-story-04\"><\/a> Also from Davos: <strong>What we\u2019ve been doing here in Egypt since 2011 has a new name: Blended finance, and it\u2019s a USD 50 bn global market right now. <\/strong>Blended finance, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2018-01-23\/davos-elite-tout-blended-finance-as-way-to-raise-1-trillion\">Bloomberg tells us<\/a>, is when private capital is pooled with public funds to invest in projects that serve development goals spanning everything from infrastructure and clean energy to climate change to poverty alleviation. The story singles out a Chilean wind farm as its example, but we\u2019re going to go out on a limb here and say that <strong>Egypt and our friends at (primarily European) DFIs should have been the poster children<\/strong>. Well before the events of 2011, Qalaa Holdings (then known as Citadel Capital) pioneered the space, mobilizing bns in equity and debt from private investors, development finance institutions and export credit agencies for its USD 3.7 bn Egyptian Refining Company. Basel El Baz is doing the same with Caron Holdings\u2019 USD 10 bn Tahrir Petrochemical Complex. And everyone working in renewable energy here \u2014 from wind to the megaproject that is solar power in Benban \u2014 is following the same playbook.<\/p><p>Bloomberg\u2019s story was spurred by the release of a report by the Blended Finance Taskforce. <a href=\"http:\/\/businesscommission.org\/our-work\/new-consultation-paper-better-finance-better-world\">Their website is here<\/a>, for those of you so inclined.<\/p><p><strong>The prospect of Cape Town becoming the world\u2019s first big metropolis to run out of water has crossed into the global press. <\/strong>Picking up where Toronto\u2019s Globe and Mail left off earlier this week, the story made it yesterday to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/8a438352-fc76-11e7-a492-2c9be7f3120a\">the Financial Times<\/a>. It is absolutely a must read if you, like us, are concerned about Egypt\u2019s approach to water conservation, from how we export it (think: rice), misuse it (washing our cars daily) to the prospect of what happened when GERD is fully up and running. There but for the grace of God, as our grandma would say.<\/p><p>Also in the salmon-coloured paper: <strong>Is there a risk that private equity is getting into bubble territory<\/strong> as competition and valuations increase? That was the subject of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/3d13da34-f6bb-11e7-8715-e94187b3017e\">the FT\u2019s Big Read<\/a> yesterday, which notes that \u201cbuyout groups are not only setting new records for fundraising, they are also turning money away at their fastest ever rate.\u201d<\/p><p><strong>**PSA-<\/strong> As unabashed fans of the paper, <strong>we want to draw high school teachers\u2019 attention to the fact that the Financial Times is offering students aged 16-19 access to its website without charge.<\/strong> The FT started the initiative in 1,400 secondary schools in the UK and is now extending it worldwide.

He said that soaring inflation was an unavoidable side-effect of reforms, but that the CBE\u2019s target of pushing the figure down to 13% by year\u2019s end is \u201cvery much within reach.\u201d Lall noted that the report (the details of which we delve into in Speed Round, below) looks into the broad strokes of Egypt\u2019s reform program and assesses short- and long-term issues. From here on out, <strong>the private sector must be encouraged to create jobs and spur economic growth<\/strong>, Lall said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vice Minister of Finance Ahmed Kouchouk told Hona Al Asema\u2019s Lamees Al Hadidi that the government is sticking to its timeline for phasing out fuel subsidies<\/strong> by the end of FY2018-19. Diesel and butane are exempted from this plan, since they are most widely used by lower-income citizens. Kouchouk also said Egypt is still studying implementing a pricing mechanism that would see global oil prices automatically reflect on domestic prices, but is not obligated to implement the scheme by the IMF (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=vAYkNkZdsSs\">watch, runtime: 4:08<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>The IMF report\u2019s recommendation to keep interest rates stable is based on inflation rates prior to their month-on-month deceleration<\/strong>, and in any case these recommendations are in no way binding, Kouchouk said. He stressed that the government has its own program in place and has the liberty to decide whether or not to follow the IMF\u2019s advice (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0OsbCN103xU\">watch, runtime: 3:42<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Finance Minister Amr El Garhy presented his ministry\u2019s three-year strategy at yesterday\u2019s weekly ministerial meeting<\/strong>, Cabinet spokesperson Ashraf Sultan told Al Hayah Al Youm\u2019s Tamer Amin. The plan includes reducing the public debt-to-GDP ratio, achieving a primary budget surplus of 2%, increasing GDP growth, lowering inflation, and bumping up state revenues with more taxes while rationalizing expenditures (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=XjwPi6UBh6I\">watch, runtime: 6:03<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Amin also spoke with former military prosecutor Sayed Hashem about the detention of Sami Anan yesterday<\/strong>, which Hashem shrugged off as something the former military chief of staff should have seen coming. He said that Anan is well-aware of military\u2019s law, which bar its active and reserve members from engaging in political activity (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=yww8S3Yg7jY&t=274s\">watch, runtime: 9:31<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kol Youm\u2019s Amr Adib seemed to be on the verge of a meltdown as he came to grips with Anan\u2019s exclusion from the presidential race<\/strong>, which he said has effectively guaranteed the elections will take place sans competition.

The project will cover 70% of domestic demand and will begin exporting surplus production once its production capacity reaches 5 mn meters in 2020.<\/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\/manufacturing\/\">Manufacturing<\/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=\"634819\" 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=\"634819\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">13<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Health + Education<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/01\/24\/egypt-uk-sign-mou-to-facilitate-british-universities-expansion-in-egypt\/\">\r\n                            Egypt, UK sign MoU to facilitate British universities expansion in Egypt                        <\/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\/01\/24\/egypt-uk-sign-mou-to-facilitate-british-universities-expansion-in-egypt\/\" 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();

The current volume increased from the USD 9 bn reached last September, which Bloomberg says reflects growing confidence. \u201cThe continued growth in activity in the interbank market comes as foreign holdings of Egyptian Treasury bills have stabilized around USD 19.5 bn over the past two months.

Saleh had wanted to shoot the film in Cairo, but was denied permits and so moved production to Morocco.<\/p>\n\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=\"634833\" 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=\"634833\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">22<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">The Market Yesterday<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/01\/24\/634833\/\">\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\/2018\/01\/24\/634833\/\" 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(); navigator.clipboard.writeText('https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/01\/24\/634833\/')\">\n                    Copy Link                <\/a>\n\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/01\/24\/634833\/\">\n                    Facebook                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/facebook-icon2.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/intent\/post?text=&url=https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/01\/24\/634833\/\">\n                    X                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/twitter-icon.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/01\/24\/634833\/&title=\">\n                    LinkedIn                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/linkedin-icon.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/api.whatsapp.com\/send?text=+https%3A%2F%2Fenterpriseam.com%2Fegypt%2F2018%2F01%2F24%2F634833%2F\">\n                    WhatsApp                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/whatsapp-icon.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n        <\/ul>\n    <\/div>\n        <\/div>\r\n                    \r\n                <\/div>\r\n\r\n            \r\n            <div class=\"story__body\">\r\n\r\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/01\/24\/634833\/\">\r\n                    <div class=\"photo photo--above\">\r\n                                            <\/div>\r\n                <\/a>\r\n\r\n                \n<article id=\"post-634833\" class=\"content-area-description single-story post-634833 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-the-market-yesterday tag-enterpriseam tag-the-market-yesterday wpautop entry\">\n\n\t\n\t<div class=\"entry-content\">\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\n<p><strong>EGP \/ USD CBE market average: <\/strong>Buy 17.6610 | Sell 17.7610<br \/><strong>EGP \/ USD at CIB:<\/strong> Buy 17.65 | Sell 17.75<br \/><strong>EGP \/ USD at NBE: <\/strong>Buy 17.65 | Sell 17.75<\/p>\n<p><strong>EGX30<\/strong> (Tuesday): 15,197 (-0.3%)<br \/>\n <strong>Turnover:<\/strong> EGP 1.0 bn (11% BELOW the 90-day average)<br \/>\n <strong>EGX 30 year-to-date<\/strong>: +1.2%<\/p>\n<p><strong>THE MARKET ON TUESDAY:<\/strong> The EGX30 ended Tuesday\u2019s session down 0.3%.
