Our sources agree, with seven who have knowledge of the talks putting the package in that range. It appears we have two options: Go for a gradual, managed float and take on less funding \u2014 or go for a full float and get a larger assistance package.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The one thing we know:<\/strong> In all cases, the value of the program will include the USD 3 bn the IMF had originally committed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What\u2019s next?<\/strong> The IMF and Egyptian authorities will continue discussions virtually \u201cto finalize the Memorandum of Economic and Financial Policies (MEFP), and identify the magnitude of additional support from the IMF and other bilateral and multilateral development partners,\u201d Hollar said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>How long before we have a package in place? <\/strong>It\u2019s unclear, but chatter in policymaking circles is that it could take as long as 8-10 days. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Will it be \u201cdevalue, then get a package\u201d?
