Demand was highest for 91-day and 182-day treasury bill auctions, with the two auctions receiving offers totaling EGP 533 bn for a targeted amount of just EGP 110 bn. This reduced the yield to 27-28%, compared to a previous average range of 27-31%. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The new issuances are intended to finance maturing debt<\/strong>, with a smaller portion allocated to bridging the fiscal deficit \u2014 which explains why the Finance Ministry is accepting high yields, our source told us. The ministry has increased its loan requests from local banks to approximately EGP 1.8 tn during the current quarter of the fiscal year to meet debt obligations. Inflows from foreign investors are expected to continue in the near term to help offset losses in the equity market, our source added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>More debt issuances are on their way<\/strong>, our source told us, explaining that the ministry is currently expanding the issuance of various debt instruments to reduce the cost of public debt servicing and that preparatory steps are underway to issue sukuk in the domestic market, though no specific timeline has been set yet. The ministry is also looking to issue treasury bonds with variable interest rates, as well as zero-interest loans and traditional debt instruments.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The current wave of investment in treasuries reflects strong demand from foreign <\/strong><strong>inv<\/strong><strong>estors as the quarter nears its end<\/strong>, banking expert Mohamed Abdel Aal told EnterpriseAM. Investors are seeking to lock in high interest rates for as long as possible, which has helped stabilize FX liquidity in the interbank market and kept the exchange rate steady despite geopolitical tensions and economic upheaval, Abdel Aal said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Abdel Aal projected that the exchange rate would stabilize around EGP 50.75 due to the <\/strong><strong>inflows<\/strong>, which have helped strengthen the EGP at this time \u2014 indicating that foreign investment inflows into debt instruments are outpacing outflows. Maintaining these inflows will also support the CBE\u2019s gradual shift toward an interest rate-cutting policy.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n

The move would allow individuals for the first time the option of purchasing government debt instruments and reduce the government\u2019s debt service payments, we were told.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">(<strong>Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links <\/strong>to our background as well as external sources.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Retail bonds? <\/strong>A government-issued retail bond is debt that is sold directly from a government to individuals. Countries issue retail bonds like the US Savings Bonds and UK Premium Bonds as a way to borrow money from the public in exchange for interest payments or some other type of return. Unlike some other forms of debt, government-issued retail bonds are stable, predictable, and often cheaper, with the added benefit of being an effective monetary policy tool if need be.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The move comes amid an uptick in interest in treasury bills and bonds<\/strong>, which was driven by individuals investing in the instruments through custodians and dealing banks.

constructively with the US administration<\/strong>, most recently through Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty\u2019s <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/6d01a66f-0aec-45b9-9ebb-73a3b2ef476b\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">meeting with US special envoy Steve Witkoff<\/a>. \u201cThe discussions were positive and constructive,\u201d he said, adding that ceasefire progress depends on international pressure on Israel, which he accused of pursuing an \u201cisolationist\u201d and \u201cobstructionist\u201d policy. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Israel\u2019s ceasefire violations risk dangerous escalation:<\/strong> Khallaf condemned Israel\u2019s recent military escalation as \u201ca blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement,\u201d which he warned could be a \u201cserious development\u201d with dangerous \u201cripple effects.\u201d He described the humanitarian situation in Gaza as \u201ccatastrophic,\u201d adding that Israel is violating its legal obligations by blocking aid. \u201cIt is extremely condemnable that the state of Israel is in violation of international law and its responsibility as an occupying power to provide the necessary humanitarian access to the people in Gaza,\u201d he said. Khallaf pointed out Egypt has delivered 5k trucks of aid since the ceasefire agreement started and continues to push for de-escalation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>On Gaza\u2019s future post-war, Khallaf outlined Egypt\u2019s three-phase reconstruction plan<\/strong> \u2014 now endorsed by all 22 Arab League members \u2014 which includes clearing rubble, building housing and infrastructure, and re-establishing governance under the Palestinian Authority. He said the plan is \u201cfeasible \u2026 operationally plausible [and] incrementally morphing into an internationally endorsed plan,\u201d despite initial hesitations from the White House. \u201cIf there are any suggestions or comments which our American partners would like to present, obviously, we will consider them and we will look at them with an open mind,\u201d Khallaf added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>\u201c<\/strong><strong>Palestinians have the right to exercise <\/strong><strong>their right for self-determination. <\/strong>They will need a country of their own,\u201d Khallaf said, reiterating that normalization with Israel across the Arab world hinges on the creation of an independent Palestinian state.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>AND- Witkoff thinks there is still room for ceasefire talks: <\/strong>The US special envoy believes \u201cthere have been signs\u201d that the ongoing negotiations could lead to resolution of the war in Gaza, but pointed out key differences between Israel and Hamas\u2019 goals that are stalling the negotiations, he said in an interview famous American political pundit Tucker CarIson (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=acvu2LBumGo&ab_channel=TuckerCarlson\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">watch, runtime: 1:32:58<\/a>). <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>\u201cWe presented a proposal at the Arab summit \u2026 that was a bridge to get to a peace deal<\/strong> to lead to the demilitarization of Hamas and a discussion about an enduring truce,\u201d Witkoff said, describing Hamas's reaction to it as \u201ccompletely inappropriate.\u201d Witkoff suggested that the US may be able to use Israel\u2019s recent military pressure to get Hamas to be a whole lot more reasonable because they have a lot of sway there. <\/p>\n\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content
