Good morning, friends, and happy FRIDAY to you all. <\/strong>The banking sector and our ongoing FX crunch are the big story here at home as we prepare to slide into one of the final weekends of summer.<\/p>\n

Central Bank of Egypt Governor Hassan Abdalla closed out his first full week on the job <\/strong>yesterday<\/strong>, holding a meeting with senior bankers. The gathering was more about sending the right message (essentially, \u201cWe\u2019re all in the same boat, so let\u2019s work together\u201d) rather than to go deep on the current macro challenges, including the FX crunch, though the availability of foreign exchange featured prominently in the sit-down.<\/p>\n

Abdalla also appointed two veteran private-sector bankers as top advisors<\/strong>, including former CIB Chairman and MD Hisham Ezz Al Arab.<\/p>\n

The story is getting prominent coverage in the domestic press<\/strong> (here<\/a> and here<\/a>) and featured prominently on last night\u2019s talk shows.<\/p>\n

MEANWHILE- For importers, hope springs eternal: <\/strong>Abdalla\u2019s meeting with bank bosses, an unconfirmed report about an banks conducting an \u201cinventory\u201d of FX needs for the coming 9 months, and a government statement have stoked expectations that import restrictions could be eased. We think the story is overblown.<\/p>\n

^^ We have more detail and analysis on all of this in this morning\u2019s news well, below.<\/p>\n

\n

WHAT\u2019S HAPPENING TODAY- <\/strong><\/p>\n

The second Egypt- and UN-led <\/strong>regional climate roundtable<\/a><\/strong> takes place in Bangkok:<\/strong> The one-day event<\/a> will see climate negotiators from the Asia-Pacific region discuss climate finance with private- and public-sector stakeholders ahead of the COP27 summit in November. This is the second of five regional roundtables being organized by Egypt and the UN. The first took place in Ethiopia last month.<\/p>\n

The Madbouly government will hold consultations with stakeholders in the water sector <\/strong>on its privatization strategy.<\/strong> The government is holding workshops and consultations with stakeholders from different industries every Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday on its privatization plans. You can find more details on the schedule of the meetings here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The big central bank meet at Jackson Hole starts:<\/strong> Fed chairman Jerome Powell will deliver a speech on Friday and investors will be keeping a close eye for hints about how far the central bank could raise rates when it next meets in September. Shares in Europe and the US ended a recent run of losses yesterday, ending yesterday\u2019s trading session marginally in the green ahead of Powell\u2019s speed.<\/p>\n

Asian markets are mainly in the green this morning <\/strong>and futures suggest shares in Europe and the US will see early gains later today.<\/p>\n
