The Egyptian Cabinet welcomed the interest demonstrated by the public at home and abroad, as well as the keenness of Arab citizens to support the Egyptian economy and boost up Egypt's Stock Market, when re-opened, inviting them to invest through two different channels. The first includes brokerage firms registered in the Egyptian Stock Market, which buy and sell shares upon investor's request in return for a small commission.
