The minister phoned in from Washington, DC, to update Lamees on the IMF and World Bank\u2019s Fall Meetings, where he sat down with IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde and several finance ministers from the MENA region to discuss inclusive growth and each country\u2019s challenges in achieving it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The minister also recapped some positive economic indicators<\/strong>, including month-on-month declines in inflation, which he said also reflects price stability and a nascent economic recovery.

The exit, which we\u2019re told will have no impact on EKH\u2019s recurring revenues or profitability, should help make EK Holding a cleaner investment story going forward.<\/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\/speed-round\/\">SPEED ROUND<\/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=\"638852\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"638853\" 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=\"638853\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">6<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">THE MACRO PICTURE<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2017\/10\/16\/em-that-have-had-financial-difficulties-have-best-performing-sovereign-bonds\/\">\r\n                            EM that have had financial difficulties have best performing sovereign bonds                        <\/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\/16\/em-that-have-had-financial-difficulties-have-best-performing-sovereign-bonds\/\" 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();

(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=gEkFd_sVtrs\">watch, runtime: 55:13<\/a>) takes a look at the rise of for-profit universities in the US, how they have changed the higher education landscape and how a series of shady practices may have brought about its downfall. The rise of for-profit colleges has demonstrated that there is a market for those that traditional higher education has failed (or who have rather failed out of higher education). The market had been growing immensely prior to 2010, witnessing even IPOs and M&As, targeting mostly adult-age individuals continuing their education, lower middle-income students, single parents and others who have been unable to meet rising tuitions at traditional universities. These students had been lured with the promise of an effective degree which would help them compete in a post-financial crisis job market, but by 2010, many of them were filing lawsuits.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Obama administration also began tightening regulations, threatening to upend the industry.<\/strong> Institutions closed down campuses as <a href=\"http:\/\/money.cnn.com\/2015\/03\/25\/investing\/university-of-phoenix-apollo-earnings-tank\/index.html\">enrollment levels dropped<\/a>. Yet while the industry struggles to clean house, many of those whom they have served continue to struggle to get access to higher education.<\/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-watching\/\">worth watching<\/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=\"638861\" 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=\"638861\">\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\">Diplomacy + Foreign Trade<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2017\/10\/16\/non-oil-exports-up-9-3-y-o-y-in-9m2017\/\">\r\n                            Non-oil exports up 9.3% y-o-y in 9M2017                        <\/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\/16\/non-oil-exports-up-9-3-y-o-y-in-9m2017\/\" 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();
