The source declined to provide further details, but said the request was formally made yesterday during a meeting between a visiting delegation from the global lender and the Madbouly Cabinet. Egypt had last borrowed USD 3 bn from the World Bank to support policy reforms, the third disbursement of which had arrived late last year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Background and expectations: <\/strong>Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly has requested USD 500 mn in funding for social housing development, according to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cabinet.gov.eg\/Arabic\/MediaCenter\/CabinetNews\/Pages\/cou.aspx\">a cabinet statement<\/a>. Madbouly has also requested help coming up with a strategy to incorporate the private sector into social housing projects. Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2018\/07\/02\/what-were-tracking-this-week-298\/\">news reports earlier this month claimed<\/a> that Transportation Minister Hisham Arafat had resumed talks with a World Bank delegation for additional funding for railway and river transport projects. The World Bank is already providing Egypt with more than USD 500 mn in separate loans for railway development projects. Egypt has borrowed USD 500 mn from the World Bank for social housing development, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cabinet.gov.eg\/Arabic\/MediaCenter\/CabinetNews\/Pages\/int.aspx\">the cabinet statement noted<\/a>. Most recently, the World Bank <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2018\/07\/02\/world-bank-pledges-usd-530-mn-to-improve-egypts-healthcare-system\/\">had pledged USD 530 mn<\/a> in funding to support Egypt\u2019s healthcare system. Notably, the cabinet statement also noted that Madbouly discussed with ministers his government\u2019s plan for the development of Sinai.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gov\u2019t doesn\u2019t need WB, Afrexim funding to plug current budget shortfall: <\/strong>News of the USD 2 bn funding request \u2014 which could take the form of one or more facilities \u2014 comes as Vice Minister of Finance Ahmed Kouchouk said Egypt is unlikely to seek new loans from the World Bank and African Export-Import Bank to support the budget in the current fiscal year, according to <a href=\"http:\/\/almalnews.com\/Story\/381878\/15\/%D9%83%D8%AC%D9%88%D9%83-10-%D9%85%D9%84%D9%8A%D8%A7%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%B1-%D9%85%D9%86-%D8%B5%D9%86%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%82-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%86%D9%82%D8%AF-%D9%88%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B3%D9%86%D8%AF%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D9%84%D8%AA%D8%BA%D8%B7%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%81%D8%AC%D9%88%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AA%D9%85%D9%88%D9%8A%D9%84%D9%8A%D8%A9\">Al Mal reports<\/a>. Around USD 4 bn in loan disbursements from the IMF combined with USD 4-6 bn raised from eurobond sales in FY2018-19 should be sufficient to help the government close the financing gap for the year, according to Kouchouk.
