Today\u2019s biggest story: <strong>Monthly core inflation cooled last month to its lowest level since September 2015<\/strong>, as we note in Speed Round, below. Most of you will roll your eyes when we write this, but: <strong>This doesn\u2019t mean that prices are falling or are about to decline \u2014 just that they\u2019re rising slower than they were in August. <\/strong>This is a point all of us need to make over and over to staff, colleagues, government officials, family\u2026<\/p><p>We're particularly worked up this morning about the notion of forcing food manufacturers to print prices on packaging, which appears to have been made mandatory in a snap decree issued yesterday by the Supply Ministry. More on that, too, in Speed Round, below.<\/p><p>Otherwise, the best news of the day is that fall weather has begun: We\u2019re looking at a high today of 28\u00b0C in the capital city area.<\/p><p><strong>Another change of weather: <\/strong>The Italians have become the latest EU actors to lose their fear of all things Iranian after <a href=\"http:\/\/www.azimut-group.com\/\">Azimut<\/a>, the EUR 48 bn asset manager based in Milan, announced it would acquire 20% of Iranian asset manager <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mofidentekhab.com\/#\/index_en\">Mofid Entekhab<\/a> for an undisclosed sum. That makes it the first global player to enter Iran. \u201cWe were looking for an opportunity to invest in a very interesting market. Iran is a great story,\u201d said Azimut Sergio Albarelli told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/e49c340a-add1-11e7-aab9-abaa44b1e130\">the Financial Times<\/a>. Mofid Entekhab has USD 89 mn in AUM across six mutual funds and managed accounts, Azimut said in a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.azimut-group.com\/documents\/20195\/432585\/Comunicato_AIH_MOFID_Iran_ENG.pdf\/c8b8321d-e0d0-403b-ac3b-ad0cc687f1b5\">statement announcing the transaction yesterday (pdf)<\/a>.<\/p><p>Meanwhile, <strong>Finance Minister Amr Garhy is off to Washington, DC, today for the <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imf.org\/external\/am\/2017\/index.htm\"><strong>annual IMF and World Bank meetings<\/strong><\/a><strong>, <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mof.gov.eg\/Arabic\/MOFNews\/Press\/Pages\/news-a-10-10-17.aspx\">according to a ministry statement<\/a>. On the agenda are meetings with IMF bigwigs including Managing Director Christine Lagarde, where discussions will revolve around the IMF visit at the end of October and its review of the reform program. The week will also see meetings on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.compactwithafrica.org\/content\/compactwithafrica\/home.html\">G20\u2019s African initiative<\/a> as well as sit-downs with ratings agencies and a plethora of international banks.<\/p><p><strong>Egypt\u2019s candidate for UNESCO boss is in third place again on second day of voting:<\/strong> Moushira Khattab finished third in the second round of voting yesterday with 12 ballots cast in her favor, <a href=\"http:\/\/english.ahram.org.eg\/NewsContent\/1\/64\/278577\/Egypt\/Politics-\/Updated-Egypts-Khattab-finishes-rd-in-second-round.aspx\">Ahram Online reports<\/a>. Ex-Qatari culture minister Hamad bin Abdulaziz Al Kawari was still in the lead with 20 votes, followed by France\u2019s Audrey Azoulay with 13 votes. Daily rounds of voting will continue this week until a single candidate manages to get 30 of the 58 votes on UNESCO\u2019s executive board. Otherwise, a two-candidate runoff will take place on 13 October. Qatar has been getting particularly nasty press for its campaign, with persistent rumors suggesting it bribed its way to the leading position.<\/p>\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content

All of these questions and more are addressed in this informative and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1843magazine.com\/features\/which-passport-offers-the-best-perks\">hilarious piece from The Economist\u2019s 1843 Magazine<\/a> which has a rundown of some popular destinations where you can buy a nationality with a breakdown of costs, methods, benefits and drawbacks. Take Saint Kitts and Nevis for example. Visa-free travel to 132 countries with no residency requirement sounds appealing, until you consider how that is increasingly being seen as shady by other countries such as Canada (which withdrew visa-free travel). Being certified an Aussie certainly looks good, but then again people there expect you to understand cricket \u2014 so in the end, is it really worth it?<\/p>\n<p><strong>It is worth noting that Egypt has flirted with the idea on numerous occasions<\/strong> but nationalist fervor always pulls the brakes. When looking at this list of countries, we should see no shame in it as we would be joining the likes of the US, Canada, UK and others.<\/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=\"638684\" 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=\"638684\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">8<\/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\/2017\/10\/11\/hamas-fatah-reconciliation-talks-kick-off-in-cairo\/\">\r\n                            Hamas, Fatah reconciliation talks kick-off in Cairo                        <\/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\/2017\/10\/11\/hamas-fatah-reconciliation-talks-kick-off-in-cairo\/\" 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();
