Stronger partnership with global financial institutions and investors for a more competitive Egyptian economy

 In the opening session of "Egypt Day" at London Stock Exchange, Minister of Finance, Ahmed Kouchouk stated that "Egypt Day" renews our commitment to the transparency and presence in the most important international money markets, and the cooperative work that aims at improving policies and finding new opportunities to attract more investments, pointing out that "Egypt Day" is a great opportunity for effective dialogue among all parties, in addition to the exchange of ideas and building long-term strategic partnerships based on confidence and clarity.

 

Kouchouk added that on this day, we present not only visions and ideas, but also an "integrated framework for policies" that seeks to eliminate the obstacles that hamper the growth of private sector. The said framework also seeks to open that door widely for innovation and global investment.

 

The Minister also affirmed that the success of "Egypt Day" depends on what we achieve together, including tangible outcomes and future partnerships, not only what we present on papers.

 

Kouchouk said that he truly appreciates London Stock Exchange for the extended partnership that mirrors the cooperation spirit between Egypt and British financial institutions.

 

"We are about to start a new phase of economic reforms that focus on financial sustainability, empowerment of private sector and stimulation of industrial and export activities, as we seek to enhance financial stability as well as to support the initiatives that encourage production, manufacturing and export to push forward economic growth," said Kouchouk.

 

"The government works with full coordination among its institutions to improve the investment climate and to support confidence in national economy. The ministerial economic group acts in harmony as a team that works with inclusive, coordinative and integrative vision, to achieve a clear objective, which is to have a resilient and competitive economy that attracts investors and lives up with the future changes, development and innovation," added Kouchouk.
