<\/a> It was another econ-heavy night on the airwaves<\/strong>, this time centered on President Abdel Fattah El Sisi\u2019s speech during a factory inauguration ceremony in Abu Rawash and his promise to help clear our backlogged ports soon.<\/p>\n

Banks to secure FX for letters of credit to help clear import backlogs? <\/strong>El Sisi suggested that banks will in the next four days acquire the foreign currency required to cover letters of credit for goods stuck at ports. The president was speaking a day after the government said it was working on a plan to release the remaining goods<\/a> from ports, which it valued at around USD 9.5 bn. Speaking during the ceremony yesterday, Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly said that authorities have agreed to prioritize the release of USD 4-4.5 bn worth of commodities from ports including those required for manufacturing, reiterating cabinet spokesperson Nader Saad from a day earlier (watch, runtime: 5:51<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Remember:<\/strong> Authorities have pledged to scrap the requirement for businesses to use letters of credit to finance imports by the end of this month<\/a> as part of its agreement with the IMF to transition to a flexible exchange rate.<\/p>\n

Cabinet will also be publishing a weekly tally for goods released from ports<\/strong>, detailing the amount and types of goods it has released each week, Madbouly said. El Sisi and Madbouly\u2019s statements got attention internationally: Bloomberg<\/a>.<\/p>\n

El Sisi\u2019s speech was the top story on the airwaves last night<\/strong>, receiving coverage from Kelma Akhira (watch, runtime: 3:22<\/a>), Masaa DMC (watch, runtime: 1:44<\/a>), and Al Hayah Al Youm (watch, runtime: 2:23<\/a>).<\/p>\n

MEANWHILE- The heads of the two largest state-owned banks made appearances on the <\/strong>airwaves<\/strong> last night to back up the central bank\u2019s move last week to introduce a limit on overseas FX withdrawals. Banque Misr chief Mohamed Eletreby on Kelma Akhira with Lamees El Hadidi (watch, runtime: 20:01<\/a>) and National Bank of Egypt Chairman Hisham Okasha phoned in to El Hekaya to speak with Amr Adib about the dash for FX (watch, runtime: 15:35<\/a>). We have more on this in this morning\u2019s What We\u2019re Tracking Today, above.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t hold your breath over new high-interest certificates: <\/strong>It's unlikely that we\u2019ll see new high-interest certificates of deposit from the NBE, Okasha told Adib. And Eletreby explained to El Hadidi how much high-interest CDs cost banks and therefore need to be studied very carefully.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
