Good morning, friends.<\/strong> We hope this issue finds you well-hydrated and close to the nearest air conditioner.<\/p>\n

It's Friday morning and your laptop is off. Is your brain still churning through the meeting <\/strong>that ended yesterday? <\/strong>The weekend stretches ahead, but instead of relief, you feel a familiar knot of anxiety. Rest feels like giving up. Switching off feels impossible. And somehow, Sunday always arrives with you feeling more depleted than refreshed.<\/p>\n

If this sounds familiar, you're not alone. <\/strong>For many professionals, the concept of \"rest\" can feel like another item on an already overwhelming to-do list. But what if rest didn't mean numbing out? What if it meant tuning in without the guilt?<\/p>\n

Enterprise Weekend comes out each Friday at 9:00am CLT.<\/strong> We\u2019ll be back on Sunday at 6am with EnterpriseAM. Until then: Enjoy the weekend.<\/p>\n

LAST WEEK IN 3 MINS-<\/p>\n

ECONOMY- <\/strong><\/p>\n

#1- Annual headline urban inflation <\/strong>rose for the second month<\/a><\/strong> running in April to hit <\/strong>13.9%<\/strong>, marking 0.3 percentage point increase from the 13.6% recorded in March<\/a>. On a monthly basis, inflation eased by 0.3 percentage points to 1.3%. Food and beverage price inflation \u2014 the largest component of the basket of goods and services used to calculate headline inflation \u2014 fell 0.6 percentage points to 6.0% in April.<\/p>\n

#2- Remittances from Egyptians residing abroad <\/strong>continued to rise<\/a><\/strong> in February,<\/strong> climbing 130.8% y-o-y to around USD 3 bn \u2014 the highest figure recorded during the month. February marks the twelfth consecutive month of y-o-y remittance growth. The figure was also up on a monthly basis, rising from the USD 2.9 bn recorded in January.<\/p>\n

#3- IMF kicked off fifth review: <\/strong>A team from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) held its<\/a>first round<\/a> of meetings with government officials, kicking off the fifth review of Egypt\u2019s loan program, after it landed in Cairo<\/a> late last week, a government source told EnterpriseAM. The meetings have been heavily focused<\/a> on structural reforms that ensure the sustainability of what has already been achieved in terms of growth and debt reduction. The Fund is looking to ensure the stability of the government\u2019s general budget in the face of any changes that may take place in the global scene, the source added. <\/p>\n

TAX- <\/strong><\/p>\n

New brains for a new tax map: <\/strong>The Finance Ministry is in the process<\/a> of selecting three to four private-sector consulting firms to help reassess Egypt\u2019s real estate assets and propose new valuation methods for the property tax system. The consulting firms are expected to be selected and begin work next month. The new valuations \u2014 expected to be out in 2H 2025 \u2014 are part of a broader strategic overhaul of the property tax law that will include legislative amendments.<\/p>\n

MANUFACTURING- <\/strong><\/p>\n

Two projects <\/strong>worth a combined USD 210<\/a><\/strong> mn kick off operations in Ain Sokhna:<\/strong> China\u2019s state-owned Xinxing Ductile Iron Pipes Company<\/a> inaugurated its USD 150 mn ductile iron pipes plant in the Sokhna Industrial Zone, while Turkish sanitary product company Hayat inaugurated a USD 60 mn project in the zone. <\/p>\n

ENERGY- <\/strong><\/p>\n

#1- Gov\u2019t finds defective fuel samples: <\/strong>The oil and supply ministries have conducted tests of gasoline samples in circulation, finding<\/a> five samples not in compliance with established standards \u2014 out of a total of 807 collected \u2014 following complaints by citizens over the quality of gasoline.<\/p>\n

Authorities responded with stricter quality control and compensatory measures: <\/strong>The Oil Ministry enacted measures to ensure fuel supplied to fuel stations meets specifications \u2014 including testing rules for both locally produced and imported fuel. The ministry will also compensate eligible car owners for damaged fuel pumps of up to EGP 2k.<\/p>\n

#2- A move towards long-term contracts for natgas imports:<\/strong> Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company (EGAS) has inked a 10-year agreement with global maritime energy infrastructure player H\u00f6egh Evi<\/a> for an LNG regasification vessel, Bloomberg<\/a> reports, citing a statement it has received from the firm. The newswire says the move signals the country\u2019s \u201clong-term dependency on fuel imports.\u201d<\/p>\n

Egypt is also <\/strong>mulling over signing long-term contracts with Qatar<\/strong> to secure Qatari natural gas for domestic consumption. This came during a meeting<\/a> between a delegation led by Oil Minister Karim Badawi and Qatar\u2019s Energy Minister Saad Sherida Al Kaabi.<\/p>\n

\n

AROUND THE WORLD IN SEVEN DAYS- <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s Mideast tour was front and center in the international headlines this week<\/strong>, with the foreign press also honing in on a de-escalation in the US-China trade war.<\/p>\n

US President Donald Trump kickstarted his Middle East tour in Riyadh, where he <\/strong>pledged<\/a><\/strong> to lift the longstanding and crippling sanctions in <\/strong>place against Syria<\/strong>, signaling a major shift in US policy following decades of diplomatic isolation. Trump also met with<\/a> Syrian President Ahmed Al Sharaa and urged him to normalise ties with Israel by joining the so-called Abraham Accords.<\/p>\n

The Saudi-US summit saw the signing of 145 agreements totalling USD 300 bn<\/strong> as part of <\/strong>a USD 600 bn package<\/strong> whose remainder is set to be announced in the coming months. The Kingdom is set to eventually round out the figure to USD 1 tn in a second phase. AI was a big theme, with Riyadh-based DataVolt planning to invest USD 20 bn in US-based AI data centers and energy infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s second stop in Qatar saw <\/strong>the signing of <\/strong>USD 243 bn in agreements<\/a><\/strong>, including defense purchases for drone and counter-drone capabilities from US companies, Qatari investments at Al Udeid Air Base, and a tall, USD 96 bn order for up to 210 Boeing jets.<\/p>\n

The third and final leg of the tour took him to UAE,<\/strong> where the US and the Gulf nation inked USD 200 bn worth of commercial agreements<\/a>. The new agreements, in energy, critical minerals, and \u2014 as expected \u2014 AI, bring the total investment ticket over his Gulf tour to USD 2 tn.<\/p>\n

MEANWHILE<\/strong>- The US and China <\/strong>agreed to a 90-day pause<\/a><\/strong> to their trade war after two <\/strong>days of talks in Geneva<\/strong>, with the US slashing tariffs it imposed earlier this year on Chinese goods from 145% to 30% \u2014 encompassing the 10% baseline US tariff and an additional 20% linked to fentanyl trafficking \u2014 while China lowered its tariffs on US imports from 125% to 10%. <\/p>\n

AND- India and Pakistan agreed to an <\/strong>immediate ceasefire<\/a><\/strong> that quickly turned out to be fragile, as both sides accused each other of violations and reportedly went back to exchanging fire, with multiple explosions heard around Indian-controlled Kashmir. The US-led talks had been hoped to de-escalate the serious confrontation between the nuclear-armed neighbors.<\/p>\n
