There seems to be a mix-up with these figures though:<\/strong> Abdel Wahab said yesterday that the increase was driven by companies investing USD 2.2 bn during the quarter, up from USD 1.4 bn a year earlier. But this USD 800 mn increase doesn\u2019t seem to square with the official figures (which show Egypt attracted USD 2.77 bn in 2Q2018-2019) and his claim of a 16% rise in quarterly FDI, which would only allow for around USD 400 mn in additional investment.<\/p>\n
