Investors know the hike is temporary, El Etreby also said, explaining that people should instead focus on the CBE\u2019s achievements, such as the fact that banks are now freely buying USD from the interbank system, for example (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=T_O5l7fKGzI\">watch<\/a>, runtime 6:00).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Emirates NBD might follow suit, <\/strong>raising the rates only for short-term deposits, Deputy Managing Director and Chief Risk Officer Sahar El Damati told Lamees. The bank is still weighing its options though. As for the impact of fiscal policy on investors, Damati suggested that the government lower the fixed custom exchange rate to EGP 13 from EGP 16.5 to ease some of the pressure on the business community.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lamees then moved on talk about the EGX with CI Capital\u2019s Executive Chairman and CEO Mahmoud Atallah,<\/strong> who confirmed that 24% of CI Capital\u2019s shares will be offered on the EGX by 4Q2017 and GDRs are also a possibility.<\/p>\n<p><strong>From there she discussed whether real estate is still a safe haven for investors <\/strong>with Al Ahly Real Estate\u2019s Chairman Hussein Sabbour. The price of sold units will continue to rise as long as the government is the sole authority concerned with issuing and tendering land, Sabbour said (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=xrKMqXmyMUU\">watch<\/a>, runtime 31:08).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Meanwhile on Masaa DMC, Transport Minister Hisham Arafat appears to be playing the usual game of hinting at price increasing then denying it to the public. <\/strong>The minister said that the there were no plans to hike metro and railway ticket prices \u201cat this time\u201d(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qzpInPUtdeA\">watch<\/a>, runtime: 5:41).
