Some 725 bps of cumulative cuts last year brought the policy rate to 20%, and the bulge bracket bank sees rates falling to the 14-15% range by the end of this year while keeping real rates in positive territory.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Look for the CBE to go for another 100 bps cut at its 12 February meeting<\/strong>, DB economist Samira Kalla writes. The timing matters: The meeting falls before Ramadan begins on 18 February, and seasonal imports are already in stock. That could give the central bank a window to ease before any seasonal price pressures kick in. Inflation was steady at 12.3% y-o-y in December, and the bank forecasts an average of around 11% for 2026 \u2014 still above the CBE\u2019s target of 7% (\u00b1 2 percentage points) by 4Q, but on a clear downward trend.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What could make the CBE cut faster? <\/strong>If the Madbouly government pushes ahead faster with reforms \u2014 or if geopolitics or the global economy were to take a turn for the worse. (That\u2019s economist-speak for: another war = rate cut.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Deutsche Bank sees the economy growing at a 5% clip in 2026-27<\/strong>, in line with the CBE\u2019s forecast.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Look for manufacturing to be the star once again: <\/strong>The manufacturing sector grew 15% in the first quarter of last year, Kalla writes. Regular readers of EnterpriseAM will have seen a flood of inbound investment in manufacturing, buoyed by improvements in everything from the macro climate to the customs bureaucracy. Standouts include motor vehicles (+50%), furniture (+34%), pharma (+19%), and ready-made garments (+17%). Outside of manufacturing, ICT added 14.5%, tourism 13.8%, and financial services 10.2%.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Also in the mix: <\/strong>The Suez Canal has finally returned to growth. Meanwhile, hydrocarbons remain a drag, but the decline is slowing as activity resumes and new gas field discoveries come online.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>On inflation risks, DB flags potential FX pass-through<\/strong> from capital outflows, pending hikes in electricity and tobacco prices, and food price volatility thanks to (you guessed it) climate change. Lower-than-expected food price increases and any delay in phasing out energy subsidies could help push inflation lower than forecast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CBE could cut even faster if the cabinet picks up the pace of reform \u2014 and may have no choice but to do so if global conditions turn sour<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":684535,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"newspack_ads_suppress_ads":false,"newspack_popups_has_disabled_popups":false,"newspack_sponsor_sponsorship_scope":"","newspack_sponsor_native_byline_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_native_category_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_style":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_placement":"inherit","ep_exclude_from_search":false,"_primary_brand":0,"newspack_featured_image_position":"","newspack_post_subtitle":"","newspack_article_summary_title":"Overview:","newspack_article_summary":"","newspack_hide_updated_date":false,"newspack_show_updated_date":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9272],"tags":[2203,72,349,724,1510],"brand":[],"newspack_spnsrs_tax":[],"class_list":["post-684534","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-macro-picture","tag-deutsche-bank","tag-enterpriseam","tag-interest-rates","tag-monetary-policy","tag-the-macro-picture","wpautop","entry"],"acf":{"mongo_id":"6459638b-d500-4d15-8309-01fa03133bcd","order":"8","is_powered_by":false,"story_type":"1","photo_url":"https:\/\/ent.news\/2025\/3\/22.jpg","photo_position":"above","homepage_title":"","full_issue_title":"Deutsche Bank sees 500-600 bps of rate cuts in 2026 \u2014 with room for more","related_issue":[684520],"teaser":"CBE could cut even faster if the cabinet picks up the pace of reform \u2014 and may have no choice but to do so if global conditions turn sour"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
