Good <\/strong>morning<\/strong> folks<\/strong>. <\/strong>We\u2019re waking up to a morning defined by two major pivots: one in the halls of power and another in the central bank\u2019s playbook. By lunch today, we expect a new ministerial lineup to be greenlit by the House, signaling a fresh phase of execution for the Madbouly government. <\/p>\n

While the faces at the top may change, the economic mandate remains ironclad: keep the <\/strong>reform path steady to reassure global markets.<\/strong> This political stability is being mirrored by a strategic freeze on electricity prices through June \u2014 a calculated move to suppress inflation and clear the runway for the Central Bank of Egypt to potentially accelerate its interest rate cutting cycle as early as this Thursday.<\/p>\n

And speaking of interest rates, we\u2019ve got a poll of the analysts we trust the most in <\/strong>today\u2019s issue<\/strong> to give us their forecasts and the reasons behind them. We\u2019ve also got news of Allianz Trade upgrading our country risk profile, Sokhna getting high-rises and superyachts, a look into why the desert is done waiting for the grid with off-grid green push in today\u2019s Going Green, and much, much more.<\/p>\n

BUT FIRST- We couldn\u2019t be happier this morning to mark episode #100 of Morning Drive<\/strong>, our essential 10-minute audio edition of EnterpriseAM, brought to you in association with our friends at Madine Masr<\/strong>, Granite<\/strong>, and Bonyan<\/strong>. There\u2019s little we enjoy more than running into fans of Morning Drive in the wild \u2014 at events, at the club, in the gym. On behalf of our wonderful Audio team and, of course, Synthetic Salma: Thank you all for listening. <\/p>\n

Happening today <\/p>\n

<\/a> We\u2019re on the lookout for the announcement of an <\/strong>\u201cextensive\u201d cabinet shuffle<\/a><\/strong> set <\/strong>to be greenlit by the House in just a few hours<\/strong>, when the lower body meets at 1pm for a plenary session to \u201cconsider an important matter\u201d called by Secretary-General Ahmed Manaa. Once the House approves the changes, the new ministers will be sworn in at Ittihadiya, which should give us the full rundown of the cabinet\u2019s new ministerial makeup.<\/p>\n

Big changes are coming, but <\/strong>Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly and the cabinet <\/strong>economic team need not worry<\/strong>, we were told. By keeping the economic team intact, the government is likely signaling to the IMF and global markets that the current reform path is fixed. Consistency in the finance and investment portfolios is a defensive play against market volatility, as any reshuffle now would have risked spooking creditors just as the government pushes for more private-sector buy-in.<\/p>\n

Gourmet will officially make its trading debut on the bourse today<\/strong>, with trading in the premium food retailer\u2019s shares set to begin under the ticker GOUR.CA at EGP 6.90 per share, according to a bulletin from the bourse seen by EnterpriseAM.<\/p>\n

The listing follows the company selling a 47.6% stake in an <\/strong>IPO<\/a><\/strong>, whose public tranche was 55.8x oversubscribed and private placement 12.2x covered. The company raised approximately EGP 1.3 bn in proceeds.<\/p>\n

\n

The business community and policymakers will have their eyes on January\u2019s <\/strong>inflation figures due later today<\/strong> for early clues on how the Central Bank of Egypt will act at its monetary policy meeting just two days later.<\/p>\n

The country\u2019s <\/strong>last monthly reading<\/a><\/strong> showed annual headline urban inflation unchanged at <\/strong>12.3% <\/strong>despite food and beverages price increases, emboldening forecasts that inflation is set to continue making decent progress toward the CBE\u2019s target of 7% (\u00b12%) by the end of 2026.<\/p>\n

The polls are in, with headline urban inflation expected to ease 0.6 percentage points <\/strong>to 11.7% y-o-y in January<\/strong>, driven by a favorable base effect, softer food prices, and a stronger EGP, according to a Reuters poll<\/a> of 18 analysts. Core inflation is also seen edging down 0.3 percentage points to 11.5%, according to a separate poll of five analysts by the newswire.<\/p>\n

\n

Happening tomorrow<\/p>\n

Gitex Global\u2019s <\/strong>AI Everything Middle East & Africa<\/a><\/strong> summit kicks off <\/strong>tomorrow at the Egypt International Exhibition Center.<\/strong> The two-day event will bring together startups, investors, and policymakers from more than 60 countries to explore investments and innovation in the AI sector. It will feature a ministerial AI policy summit, exhibitions, panel discussions, networking sessions, and a hackathon.<\/p>\n

<\/a> TAX \u2014 The Finance Ministry launched a first-of-its-kind digital system to <\/strong>centralize and monitor administrative seizures on taxpayers\u2019 bank accounts and assets<\/strong>, a senior government source tells EnterpriseAM. The system, which begins its rollout in Cairo tax offices this month, is designed to strip local tax officers of the ability to unilaterally freeze company assets \u2014 a long-standing grievance for the private sector.<\/p>\n

For claims over EGP 1 mn, local tax offices are now prohibited from taking action. <\/strong>These cases are automatically referred to the head of the Egyptian Tax Authority for a final decision. Meanwhile, claims under EGP 1 mn will be managed by the General Administration for Collections, which has a strict 10-day window to verify the judicial grounds for any seizure via the digital platform before any action can be taken.<\/p>\n

Why it matters:<\/strong> The threat of an arbitrary seizure has been a key driver of investment risk in Egypt. By centralizing the kill switch, the ministry is effectively defanging lower-level bureaucracy and providing the private sector with added protection. The approach aims to both protect the investment climate and ensure the collection of state dues, our source tells us.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s next? <\/strong>After the Cairo pilot, the system will be rolled out nationwide.<\/p>\n

<\/a> IN<\/strong>VESTMENT \u2014 F6<\/strong> Ventures plans to kick off a USD 20 mn investment drive targeting <\/strong>local <\/strong>startups in 2Q 2026<\/strong>, Investment Manager Cherif Hamdy tells EnterpriseAM. The capital \u2014 part of the USD 50 mn Africa Seed Fund \u2014 will be deployed across 38 Egyptian startups over the next five years.<\/p>\n

Startups working in fintech, healthtech, logistics, climate, ICT, and edtech will be the <\/strong>fund\u2019s main targets<\/strong>, with average funding between USD 200k-500k and follow-on funding of USD 500k. But \u201cthe fund itself will be sector-agnostic, meaning we can invest in other good [prospects], but the sweet spot will be these six,\u201d Hamdy tells us.<\/p>\n

ENERGY<\/strong> \u2014 <\/strong>EgyptAir <\/strong>got its hands<\/a><\/strong> on its first Airbus A350-900 aircraft<\/strong>, which operates using a blend of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). This move brings EgyptAir closer to its long-term goal of net-zero aviation and comes as part of an agreement with Airbus for the flag carrier to obtain 16 A350-900 jets.<\/p>\n

Demand for SAF in Egypt is <\/strong>on the upswing<\/a><\/strong>, with EgyptAir\u2019s SAF targets a key driver of demand. The national flag carrier targeted a 2% share of SAF in its fuel mix last year.<\/p>\n

The big story abroad <\/p>\n

No single st<\/strong>ory <\/strong>is capturing the attention of the foreign business pages this morning <\/strong>\u2014 among the few worth noting:<\/p>\n

Google\u2019s <\/strong>parent company Alphabet started <\/strong>shopping around a 100-year bond<\/a><\/strong>, which comes as part of a wider GBP-denominated issuance. We know the demand is there, with the tech giant wrapping up a 5x oversubscribed, USD 20 bn bond sale yesterday. It is also preparing a separate CHF offering, all in a bid to finance its AI ambitions.<\/p>\n

Speaking of Big Tech, they might catch a break on tariffs<\/strong>, as US President Donald Trump plans<\/a>to exempt<\/a> companies like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft from an upcoming streak of levies on chips. The move would spare imports from Taiwanese chip manufacturer TSMC, whose major clients include AI hyperscalers \u2014 a sector that Trump wants to protect while simultaneously remaining tough on imports.<\/p>\n

The specter of AI haunts private credit: <\/strong>Private credit lenders remain rattled<\/a> by potential disruption in the software sector \u2014 a favorite debtor among players \u2014 by advancements in AI. In light of Anthropic\u2019s rollout<\/a> of AI tools that automate tasks conventionally done via software products, shares of asset managers with large private credit activity saw a sharp drop.<\/p>\n
