Volatility in global markets thanks to near-perfect storm of spiraling commodities prices and rising interest rates means conditions are not ideal for new public offerings. Instead, he said, the SFE thinks there\u2019s a window for private sales to strategic and other anchor investors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s coming down the pipe? <\/strong>The Madbouly government has been planning to sell part or all of as many as 10 state-owned and two military-owned companies this year and has previously signaled that it is open to both stake sales and IPOs, all depending on market conditions and individual investor interest. The government has <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/14b94986-d461-4f36-ab26-cf9227098f74\">suggested<\/a> it also open to offering stakes to strategics before selling down additional stakes later via public offering. All of this comes amid a new <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/158188ff-65a9-4146-adc1-5f53c1a3f6e5\">privatization push<\/a> after President Abdel Fattah El Sisi said his administration aims to bring in some USD 10 bn in fresh investment in each of the next four years through the sale of state assets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NEW HOTELS COMPANY UP FIRST?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The government could sell a stake in <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/1e20e3ec-470d-40fc-bd71-c08efcd42d82\">the new hotel company<\/a><\/strong><strong> to a private investor<\/strong>, Soliman told the business newswire. The state is currently working on merging seven or eight state-owned hotels into a single entity, and was initially looking to <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/330b3729-74cc-48ec-91f5-1d3276107b0f\">sell a 25% stake in the firm through an IPO<\/a> on the EGX.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Saudis could be buying: <\/strong>The Saudi sovereign wealth fund is \u201cvery keen\u201d on investing in the new hotel company, Soliman said.
