Sudanese President Omar Al Bashir arrives in Cairo tomorrow for a one-day visit<\/strong> to discuss \u201cpending issues\u201d with President Abdel Fattah El Sisi, an unnamed Sudanese diplomat tells Al Shorouk<\/a>. The meeting comes as relations with Khartoum continue to improve following a rise in tensions over the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam and accusations that Egypt was \u201cmeddling\u201d in Sudanese affairs. Sudan\u2019s ambassador also returned to his post in Cairo<\/a> earlier this month, nearly three months after having been recalled for consultations.<\/p>\n

Egypt\u2019s first fintech-focused accelerator, the Pharos-affiliated Pride Capital, is hosting a workshop on Thursday titled \u201cA Bright Future for Blockchain in Capital Markets\u201d <\/strong>at the Greek Campus. The workshop will feature a discussion with EGX Chairman Mohamed Farid and Henerby Blockchain Consulting CEO Bobby Henerby. To register for a spot in the workshop, tap here if you\u2019re on your mobile<\/a> and click here if you\u2019re on a computer<\/a>. You can check out the workshop\u2019s Facebook page<\/a> for more information on the event or Pride Capital\u2019s LinkedIn page<\/a> for more on the accelerator.<\/p>\n

Look for the newly appointed board of the Financial Regulatory Authority (FRA) to be ratified in the coming days<\/strong> by Prime Minister Sherif Ismail. The board will then get to work on executive regulations for the Capital Markets Act, completing the Insurance Act, and drafting legislation that would grant FRA new autonomy.<\/p>\n

Cabinet is expected to discuss the executive regulations to the controversial NGO law \u201cwithin days.\u201d<\/strong> Parliament had signed off on the bill back in 2016. The act has since come under fire from Republican Senators and the US Congress\u2019 human rights commission.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
