This forecast is supported by the \u201cmassive decline in inflation levels, the strong currency and the global monetary policy easing,\u201d Moubarak said. Looking ahead, all these factors, along with the need to boost private investment and curb debt service costs, will prompt the CBE to cut rates by a total of 975 bps over 2026, according to Moubarak. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The CBE could take its foot off the gas to protect our carry trade as investors continue to <\/strong><strong>seek high returns<\/strong>, Moubarak said, noting that \u201cthe priority for authorities is to continue to support the currency and to keep portfolio investments flowing and capital inflows strong.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>A closer look at the EGP \/ USD exchange rate: <\/strong>The EGP has recently strengthened to trade below EGP 48 against the greenback, exceeding BMI's expectations.
