Good morning, friends<\/strong>. <\/strong>We\u2019re halfway through what has been a pretty eventful October and we don\u2019t expect the news flow to slow down as the month draws to a close. We lead today\u2019s issue with debt news, with the IFC gearing up to issue EGP 100 bn worth of bonds within months. <\/p>\n

ALSO IN TODAY\u2019S ISSUE- <\/strong>The Madbouly government unveils its plan to up oil and gas exploration in the years to come and we dive into Entlaq\u2019s report dissecting our startup scene. <\/p>\n

PSA- <\/p>\n

WEATHER- <\/strong>It\u2019s another cool fall day in Cairo, with a high of 28\u00b0C and a low of 19\u00b0C, according to our favorite weather app.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a little cooler in Alexandria<\/strong>, with a high of 27\u00b0C and a low of 18\u00b0C.<\/p>\n

GDP WATCH- <\/p>\n

The IMF expects Egypt\u2019s economy to grow <\/strong>4.3% in 2025<\/strong>, according to the fund\u2019s latest World Economic Outlook (pdf)<\/a>. The fund also sees the economy growing 4.5% in 2026 and 5.3% in 2030. While the report didn\u2019t offer much commentary on Egypt, it mentioned that \u201cthe outturn in the first half of 2025 was better than expected.\u201d The report doesn\u2019t mention growth projections for the country\u2019s fiscal year<\/a>, which runs from July to June. <\/p>\n

What about the global picture? <\/strong>We dive deeper into the WOE in this morning\u2019s Planet Finance, below.<\/p>\n

More to come: <\/strong>Expect more commentary on Egypt when the IMF releases its Regional Economic Outlook for the Middle East and Central Asia on 21 October.<\/p>\n

WATCH THIS SPACE- <\/p>\n

<\/a> #1- The economy is showing signs of improvement and steady growth amid <\/strong>rising investor confidence<\/strong>, Finance Minister Ahmed Kouchouk told international investors on the sidelines of the IMF and World Bank annual meetup in Washington, according to a ministry statement<\/a>. Recent economic and fiscal reforms have helped sustain stability and push growth to 4.4%, Kouchouk said. <\/p>\n

Driving growth: <\/strong>Private sector investments grew 73% last fiscal year, supported by better governance of public investments, which created more space for private participation and lowered the government\u2019s debt-to-GDP ratio. Kouchouk added that fiscal policy now focuses on boosting production and exports and making growth more inclusive, while improved economic policies have helped ease inflation. <\/p>\n

#2-<\/strong> Owners of New Urban Communities Authority-established units will <\/strong>soon get a <\/strong>three-month window to settle late payment fees under more favorable conditions<\/strong>, following the proposal\u2019s approval by the Housing Ministry, according to a ministry statement<\/a>. The move covers all types of land \u2014 residential, commercial, service, investment, industrial, and legalization plots \u2014 as well as coastal units.<\/p>\n

The authority will grant a 70% waiver on late-payment fines for those who pay all <\/strong>outstanding dues in full<\/strong> and a 50% waiver for those who pay half. An additional 10% reduction applies if payment is made within 30 days of the official announcement. The measure, which can only be used once within the three-month period, is part of the government\u2019s broader drive to ease burdens on citizens and investors and maintain a favorable climate for real estate investment.<\/p>\n

HAPPENING TODAY-<\/p>\n

<\/a> #1- <\/strong>It\u2019s day three of the <\/strong>World Bank and IMF annual meetup<\/a><\/strong> in Washington. <\/strong>Yesterday\u2019s release of the IMF\u2019s World Economic Outlook is continuing to get a lot of ink in the financial press this morning, after the Fund noted the global economy\u2019s \u201cunexpected resilience\u201d despite global tariff war uncertainty weighing on growth. This pushed the fund to up its global GDP forecast 0.2 percentage points from its July projection to 3.2%.<\/p>\n

** Want to dive headfirst into the report to find out more? <\/strong>We\u2019ve got a rundown in today\u2019s Planet Finance in the news well, below.<\/p>\n

\n

<\/a> #2- It\u2019s day four of <\/strong>Cairo Water Week<\/a><\/strong>, the country\u2019s annual event to discuss innovative solutions for climate resilience and water sustainability, which is taking place at New Cairo\u2019s Triumph Luxury Hotel and will wrap tomorrow. The event\u2019s packed schedule includes workshops, exhibitions, and sessions around adaptation to climate change, water resource management, nature-based solutions, and sustainable infrastructure.

THE BIG STORY ABROAD- <\/p>\n

Government bonds rallied yesterday as equities took a hit and investors piled into<\/strong> safe haven assets<\/strong> following renewed tensions between the US and China as the latter faces a 100% tariff on its goods after it tightened export controls on rare earth minerals. <\/p>\n

The yield on the UK\u2019s benchmark 10-year government bond \u2014 gilts \u2014 lost 8 basis points<\/strong>, while yields on US 10-year Treasuries fell 3 basis points, and yields on bonds in France, Germany, Italy, Australia, and Japan all edged lower. (CNBC<\/a>) <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell signaled he would back another rate cut<\/strong> as preliminary labor market data shows signs of distress, despite the official jobs market data being delayed to the ongoing US government shutdown. (Financial Times<\/a>)<\/p>\n

CLOSER TO HOME- The fragile Israel-Hamas ceasefire agreement has already started to face snags<\/strong>, just a day after US President Donald Trump heralded the end of the war during his visit to the region. Israel said it would limit the volume of humanitarian aid going into Gaza to half since Hamas has failed to return the bodies of some of the deceased hostages, as was agreed. Hours later, though, Hamas delivered some of the bodies, but US President Donald Trump is threatening Hamas with retaliation if it does not lay down its arms. <\/p>\n

The question of Hamas\u2019 disarmament remains contentious<\/strong>, with Hamas yet to comply as it deploys hundreds of security forces in Gaza and follows through with executions of several people accused of collaborating with Israel. (Reuters<\/a> | Bloomberg<\/a> | Guardian<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Trump is also threatening to cut financial aid to Argentina if current president \u2014 and Trump ally \u2014 Javier Milei loses the upcoming election<\/strong>, threatening a USD 20 bn commitment to the country. (Guardian<\/a> | Reuters<\/a> | AP<\/a> | New York Times<\/a>) <\/p>\n
