Egypt\u2019s fourth IMF review is right around the corner:<\/strong> The International Monetary Fund will begin the long-awaited fourth review<\/a> of Egypt\u2019s IMF loan program tomorrow, Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly said during a presser (watch, runtime: 10:43<\/a>) with the IMF\u2019s managing director Kristalina Georgieva attended by EnterpriseAM yesterday. The news came during Georgieva\u2019s second day of talks in Egypt following her arrival on Saturday<\/a>.<\/p>\n

(Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links <\/strong>to our background as well as external sources.)<\/p>\n

It's been a while since the third review: <\/strong>The Fund completed its third review<\/a> of the country\u2019s loan program in late July and the USD 820 mn tranche landed in state coffers<\/a> just days later. The fourth review, which was initially scheduled for September, is set to unlock USD 1.3 bn in funds \u2014 the biggest of the four tranches to date.<\/p>\n

What will the fourth review look like? <\/strong>Georgieva mentioned three main areas that will be subject to discussions during the review, pointing to \u201cwhat more can be done for a resilient Egyptian economy for macroeconomic and financial stability and how to make sure inflation continues on the way down; What more can be for the private sector to flourish; How can we support Egyptian objectives in the area of greening the economy.\u201d <\/p>\n

The talks also gave some insight into how the IMF views the nation\u2019s economic reforms:<\/strong> President Abdel Fattah El Sisi and the IMF chief\u2019s meeting<\/a> prior to the presser yesterday struck a largely positive tone, with Georgieva saying that Egypt's macroeconomic indicators have improved despite significant regional and international headwinds. She singled out as particularly positive signs the country\u2019s recent credit rating upgrade<\/a>, positive outlooks from international rating agencies, and increased investment. <\/p>\n

Getting inflation under control is key: <\/strong>Georgieva also noted in the readout of her meeting with El Sisi that the Fund agrees with its Egyptian counterparts that tackling inflation needs to be a key priority for the government and its international partners. Rising energy costs \u2014 a substantial part of which is accounted for by fuel prices \u2014 have been acknowledged<\/a> as driving two consecutive monthly upticks<\/a> in inflation.<\/p>\n

Georgieva defended the reform program overall<\/strong>, saying at the press conference that the reforms had made Egypt safer in a world marked by economic shocks. \u201cReforms are not easy. I would like to recognize the efforts of the government and recognize the Egyptian people \u2026 I have full confidence that you will see the full benefit of these reforms in a more dynamic, more prosperous Egyptian economy,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n

Could we finally unlock climate financing from the fund? <\/strong>The IMF team will be discussing green financing through its Resilience and Sustainability Facility next week, Georgieva said. The government applied for an additional USD 1.2 bn<\/a> in long-term, low-cost climate financing from the IMF's Resilience and Sustainability Facility back in August <\/p>\n

The background: <\/strong>The IMF head\u2019s visit comes as the state seeks to renegotiate the terms<\/a> of the USD 8 bn loan agreement. President Abdel Fattah El Sisi last month stated that the country might need to revisit the IMF agreement<\/a> in light of the economic pressures the country is facing as it undergoes agreed-upon reforms.<\/p>\n
