Israel has sold record amount of debt in US since war on Gaza erupted: Report
Israel has sold a record amount of debt in the US since its war on Gaza erupted on 7 October 2023, according to a report by Bloomberg on Friday. The government of Israel's US-based bond broker, Israel Bonds, says it has sold $5bn worth of debt in the last twenty months. The level of bond issuance is more than double that raised by Israel Bonds, in similar time periods previously. Israel's war on Gaza started after the 7 October 2023 Hamas-led attacks on southern Israel killed around 1,200 people. Israel responded by pummelling the Gaza Strip and invading it. More than 54,000 people, mainly women and children, have been killed in the Israeli attacks, and the population is facing "imminent famine", the United Nations says. Israel Bonds is affiliated with Israel's finance ministry and sells bonds inside the US to both retail and institutional investors. The starting price for non-tradable retail Israeli bonds is as low as $36. A five-year Israeli bond has a yield between 4.86 percent and 5.44 percent, according to the Bloomberg report. New MEE newsletter: Jerusalem Dispatch Sign up to get the latest insights and analysis on Israel-Palestine, alongside Turkey Unpacked and other MEE newsletters Along with its war on Gaza, Israel fought a devastating war with Hezbollah in Lebanon and launched widespread strikes on Syria. In 2024, it engaged in two rounds of direct missile and drone attacks with Iran. Israel's financing needs have soared as it looks to fund its military. Local Israeli creditors, including deep-pocketed institutional ones, account for about 80 percent of the government's lending overall. That leaves just twenty percent to come from international debt sales and what Israel Bonds sells in the US. According to the group, local US governments at the state and county level are big buyers in places like New York, Texas, Ohio, and Illinois. Palm Beach County in Florida became one of the world's largest investors in Israeli Bonds in 2024, with about $700m of its $4.67bn portfolio invested there. Israel has faced widespread criticism for its war on Gaza. The International Criminal Court has issued an arrest warrant for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant for alleged war crimes. Meanwhile, public opinion on Israel has turned sharply negative from France to Japan. However, in March 2024, Israel saw strong demand for its debt among international investors. It sold $8bn in international bonds. Israel enjoys investment-grade ratings from major credit ratings agencies.

Egypt Launches Standardised Reporting Framework for Startups and Investors
Egypt's Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise Development Agency (MSMEDA), backed by World Bank, has collaborated with several venture capital firms and the US-based platform to introduce a standardised portfolio reporting framework for startups and investors across the country. Led by Foundation Ventures, the initiative includes participation from Algebra Ventures, Sawari Ventures, Shorooq Partners, Endure Capital, Camel Ventures, DenVC, LoftyInc Capital, DisrupTech Ventures, and the Climate Resilient Africa Fund. The aim is to establish common metrics, reporting timelines, and formats, addressing the longstanding issue of inconsistent data practices within Egypt's startup ecosystem. Although Egypt's startup scene has expanded significantly in recent years, inconsistent reporting standards remain a key challenge. Startups frequently contend with producing varied reports to meet different investor requirements, while venture capital firms face difficulties in assessing portfolio performance due to the absence of unified benchmarks. The initiative seeks to simplify reporting processes for both general partners (GPs) and portfolio companies through a centralised data platform designed to enhance transparency, reliability, and operational efficiency. 'We are excited about enhancing Egypt's investment attractiveness by providing the necessary transparency to encourage foreign direct investment,' said Mazen Nadim, Managing Partner at Foundation Ventures. Following a competitive selection process, was chosen to develop and operate the platform. The company is working in partnership with Egyptian GPs to tailor the system to local requirements and workflows. The platform is expected to be fully implemented by the end of the second quarter of 2025, with the first comprehensive ecosystem report anticipated by mid-2026. By introducing a unified reporting framework, the effort is expected to ease administrative burdens for startups, provide greater clarity for investors, and strengthen Egypt's position as a destination for regional and international venture capital.
