Egypt

  • Economic growth has softened, the fiscal and balance-of-payments deficits have deteriorated, and foreign exchange reserves have fallen to a critical minimum level.
  • Two years after the Arab Spring uprising, Egyptians – many of whom are livingbelow the poverty line – are still waiting to reap the full benefits of lastingsocial, political and economic change.
  • Egypt has potential both for structural transformation towards a moreproductive economy and for optimal use of its immense resource wealth, provided that vital policy reforms are introduced.
