Our investment fund industry has become a EGP 411 bn parallel route for hou<\/strong>sehold savings <\/strong>by the end of 1Q 2026<\/strong>, up 30% in a single quarter and increasingly used by retail investors who previously parked money in physical gold, real estate units, or bank deposits. The shift isn\u2019t replacing the deposit base \u2014 fund total Net Asset Value (NAV) sits at roughly 3% of bank deposit levels \u2014 but rather opening a regulated, lower-ticket channel for households to gain exposure to the very asset classes they\u2019ve long preferred, the Financial Regulatory Authority's latest report (pdf)<\/a> shows. The number of funds rose to 187 from 172, while the number of certificates jumped 54.7% q-o-q to 31.4 bn.<\/p>\n

This is Egypt\u2019s old savings playbook in a lower-ticket wrapper.<\/strong> Households that have long used physical gold and real estate units to preserve value are now being offered regulated products that mimic that exposure without the same entry ticket. \u201cFunds have become very accessible from everywhere. It is a sign of rising investor awareness, wider use of fintech, and a much higher level of trust in the investment fund product,\u201d Azimut Egypt Managing Director Ahmed Abou El Saad tells EnterpriseAM. Macro analyst Rania Yacoub agrees that this is a retail access story, telling us that \u201cthis clearly showed up in the rise in the number of coded investors on the EGX,\u201d which climbed by 215% y-o-y<\/a> during the first quarter of the year, according to FRA Head Islam Azzam. The NBFI sector \u201cwas able to attract investors \u2014 and not only investors who used to invest through banks, but new segments of citizens,\u201d Yacoub tells us.<\/p>\n

\n

Behind the bns<\/p>\n

The scale check still favours the banks. <\/strong>Fund NAV at EGP 411 bn sits against bank deposits at roughly EGP 13-14 tn before end-2025, macro expert Moustafa Badra tells EnterpriseAM \u2014 funds are now a parallel channel, not a substitute. \u201cLet's separate the two, because this has its customer and that has its customer,\u201d Badra says. \u201cDespite the major expansion in funds and their ability to attract large investments and money, the entrenched base for many investors is still certificates and bank deposits.\u201d Abou El Saad makes the same point: CDs still work for savers who depend on fixed income to meet living expenses, while funds give more flexible investors a different tool. \u201c[CDs] have their people, but for people for whom certificates were not the right product, funds created another option,\u201d he tells us.<\/p>\n

Money<\/strong> is not waiting to rotate \u2014 it has a job.<\/strong> Money market funds dominate the industry, holding EGP 276.3 bn in NAV at end-March (67% of the market) and accounting for 54.1% of all fund certificates. They delivered an average 4.44% return in 1Q, with the best-performing money market funds coming in above that average: Iskan Ins.\u2019s Kol Youm returned 6.37% in 1Q after delivering 24.7% in 2025, while Basata Cash returned 5.22% and Wethaq 5.20%. That concentration isn't a warning sign. \u201cMost citizens investing in money market funds are doing it because they want to preserve the value of their money, earn the highest possible return, and still be able to withdraw that liquidity at any time to face daily needs,\u201d Jacoub says. Abou El Saad is more direct: \u201cIf you look at the structure of investment funds in any country in the world, you will find it very close to these numbers. Money market funds usually make up 60-80% of any fund market globally.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

The smaller-ticket safe haven<\/p>\n

Precious metals funds were the quarter\u2019s clear performance winner<\/strong>, delivering an average 20.37% return in 1Q. Their NAV nearly doubled to EGP 10.1 bn from EGP 5.2 bn at the end of 2025, but they still account for just 2.5% of total fund NAV \u2014 making this a fast-growing corner of the market but not the center of gravity. The top performers came in slightly above the category average: Beltone Evolve\u2019s Sabaek returned some 21.7% in 1Q after delivering 52.4% in 2025, while Al Ahly Evolve\u2019s Dahab returned 21.41% after 50.4% annual gains in 2025.<\/p>\n

The structural reason gold funds work: physical gold has become expensive at the entry point.<\/strong> Al Mal<\/a> reports that making charges (masna\u2019ya) average EGP 350-400 per gram for local jewelry and EGP 800-1k per gram for imported pieces \u2014 while the official tax-accounting averages for gold workmanship will also rise 10% from July<\/a>. \u201cMost investors in these funds are more nimble investors who do not have large liquidity pools, so precious metals funds gave them what they were looking for: the ability to invest small amounts periodically,\u201d Yacoub tells us. Abou El Saad cautions that the structure shouldn't be confused for a trading vehicle: \u201cPeople understand that gold is a long-term thing, not something you trade. 1Q saw a very strong inflationary surge, and that cooled in 2Q with the decline in gold prices. It has cooled, but people are still net buyers in 2Q \u2014 just at a much lower rate.\u201d<\/p>\n

Equities are growing, but <\/strong>cash <\/strong>still sets the market\u2019s shape.<\/strong> Equity funds are the largest category by number of funds, with 62 funds at the end of March and the second-largest by NAV at EGP 56.4 bn \u2014 around 13.7% of the market. Equity funds NAV grew 29.3% q-o-q, broadly in line with the industry\u2019s headline growth, while average 1Q returns came in at 4.18%. Index funds performed better, returning 7.54%, but remain tiny at just EGP 243.7 mn in NAV.<\/p>\n

That does not mean the EGX rally is failing to show up in funds.<\/strong> \u201cA year ago, we were talking about all equity funds being around EGP 10-11 bn \u2014 look at where we are now,\u201d Abou El Saad tells us. \u201cThe biggest reflection of that growth came from the FRA\u2019s new rules requiring private ins. funds and ins. companies to hold minimum investments in equity funds.\u201d Yacoub says the return picture also depends on timing and benchmarks, noting that \u201cthe real jump in the EGX30 happened in the final quarter of the year, and that was reflected in equity funds,\u201d while some index and shariah-compliant products saw stronger moves tied to their underlying stocks.<\/p>\n

\n

The next test<\/p>\n

Real estate wants the gold-fund playbook.<\/strong> Real estate funds posted the sharpest NAV jump in the report, rising to EGP 8.98 bn from EGP 923.7 mn at the end of 2025. But this is still early-stage: real estate funds account for just 2.2% of total fund NAV and 0.32% of all fund certificates, with the jump driven largely by one large new vehicle rather than a broad retail breakout. \u201cReal estate funds will represent a good opportunity to organize Egypt\u2019s real estate sector and its pricing,\u201d Yacoub tells us. \u201cOnce this product gets its chance in marketing, it will attract a very large segment of investors, like what happened with gold.\u201d<\/p>\n

The next test is fractional property.<\/strong> Abou El Saad says the next wave is about turning real estate into a smaller-ticket investment product. \u201cThe funds we are going to launch are the ones that let people invest in real estate with EGP 5k \u2014 this is where the fractional real estate idea comes in,\u201d he tells us. Platforms including Partment and Nawy Shares\u2019 FRA-regulated fractional ownership model<\/a> are already moving in that direction. \u201cIf we succeed in real estate, real estate will be the king of the coming period,\u201d Abou El Saad says.<\/p>\n

Real estate is where the regulatory framework matters most. <\/strong>The asset class has historically been the one most susceptible to informal arrangements, valuation disputes, and the dual-pricing problem that\u2019s now visible in industrial land. Badra makes the regulatory point explicitly: \u201cAs long as there is a regulatory framework \u2014 investment funds, regulated investment companies, regulated finance companies \u2014 that gives society confidence. For me, as long as this is under the state's umbrella, under the state\u2019s eyes, and under regulatory oversight, it is reassuring.\u201d Whether the access thesis extends to assets above the gold-fund ticket size \u2014 and whether the FRA\u2019s regulatory wrapper holds up to the test \u2014 will be clearer in the next four to six quarters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
