Al-Sisi reviews unified investment strategy to boost FDI, industrial growth

Egypt's President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi convened a high-level meeting on Sunday to review progress on Egypt's unified national investment strategy, which aims to enhance the country's economic competitiveness and attract increased foreign direct investment (FDI). According to a presidential statement, the meeting was attended by Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Industry and Transport Kamel Al-Wazir, Minister of Planning and Economic Development Rania Al-Mashat, Finance Minister Ahmed Kouchouk, and Minister of Investment and Foreign Trade Hassan El-Khatib. The president was briefed on ongoing measures to streamline investment procedures, including the development of a one-stop digital platform for licensing, the reduction of non-tax burdens on investors, and broader structural reforms. The strategy emphasizes transparent and stable policy frameworks, investor-friendly fiscal incentives, open trade policies, and reliable energy access for industrial operations. President Al-Sisi emphasized the need to sustain momentum in enhancing the investment climate and reaffirmed Egypt's ambition to become a regional hub for FDI in line with national development goals. The meeting also included an update on the activities of The Sovereign Fund of Egypt, particularly efforts to unlock value from state-owned assets and strengthen public-private partnerships. The president instructed officials to pursue innovative strategies for maximizing returns on national assets. Officials reviewed trends in Egypt's non-oil exports from 2003 to 2024 and discussed strategies to diversify export markets and improve the global competitiveness of Egyptian products. Infrastructure projects supporting export growth were also examined. Further discussions addressed Egypt's strategic goal of becoming a global logistics and transit trade hub. Updates were provided on a planned dry bulk terminal at Abu Qir Port and a proposed logistics station for iron and billet handling in the Adabiya area—initiatives aimed at supporting the growth of Egypt's iron and steel sector. The meeting also reviewed progress in reforming and enhancing the performance of key economic authorities, as well as the broader national structural reform agenda. Officials briefed the president on ongoing cooperation with the European Union under the macro-financial assistance agreement, designed to support Egypt's public finances. Finally, the president reviewed a draft of the country's forthcoming 'National Economic Development Narrative'—a strategic framework centered on enabling private sector-led growth, strengthening industry and exports, and implementing reforms to stabilize Egypt's macroeconomic and fiscal outlook. Al-Sisi called for the swift finalization of the strategy, highlighting its importance in charting Egypt's future development path and attracting global investment.

Suez 1.1 GW wind project, part of NWFE programme, wins two regional awards

The Suez 1.1 GW Wind Power Plant Project, part of Egypt's 'NWFE' (Nexus of Water, Food, and Energy) programme, has received two regional awards for 'Best Infrastructure Deal' and 'Best Energy Deal,' the Ministry of Planning, Economic Development and International Cooperation announced. The project, implemented by a consortium of local and foreign private sector entities, secured the 'Deal of the Year' award in the infrastructure sector from African Banker magazine. Financing for the project was contributed by a consortium of international and regional financial institutions, including the African Development Bank, the OPEC Fund for International Development, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), British International Investment (BII), DEG (a subsidiary of KfW), and the Arab Petroleum Investments Corporation (APICORP). The project also received the 'Best Energy Deal in Egypt and Africa' award from EMEA Finance. This recognition was within the framework of a platform launched by Hassan Allam Utilities, in cooperation with the French company Meridiam and the EBRD, to provide $300m in financing for the project. Rania Al-Mashat, Minister of Planning, Economic Development and International Cooperation, stated that energy projects within the 'NWFE' programme 'embody the strength of partnership between the government, private sector, and international institutions to drive development efforts and green transition.' Al-Mashat emphasised that the 'NWFE' programme country platform, particularly its energy pillar, has become a model for partnership between international financial institutions and the local and foreign private sector. This partnership aims to provide the necessary financing and investments to support Egypt's efforts in renewable energy, contributing to the implementation of the national sustainable energy strategy and nationally determined contributions. The Minister pointed out that structural and regulatory reforms implemented by the government since 2014 have facilitated significant private sector entry into the renewable energy field. This, she noted, has encouraged international financial institutions to inject investments and development financing into these projects. Egypt aims to achieve 42% renewable energy in its generated power mix by 2030. 'We continue to coordinate with the European Bank and other partners to add 10 GW of renewable energy through the program's projects,' Al-Mashat added. She further detailed that the energy pillar of the 'NWFE' programme has achieved tangible results since its launch in November 2022 at COP27. Agreements have been signed to initiate renewable energy projects with a capacity of 4.2 GW with private sector companies, and development financing of approximately $4bn has been mobilised for these projects. Al-Mashat explained that efforts are ongoing in coordination with the EBRD to achieve the programme's energy pillar target: adding 10 GW of renewable energy capacity with investments of approximately $10bn, phasing out 5 GW of fossil fuel power generation by 2028, and enhancing and developing grid infrastructure, while supporting national grid investments. These efforts all aim to support the national strategy. The Suez wind project is described as the largest of its kind in Egypt and one of the largest projects on the African continent. It is expected to generate 4,111 GWh annually, providing clean, reliable, and affordable energy to over one million households. The project is also anticipated to reduce annual carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 1.71 million tons, significantly contributing to Egypt's climate commitments under the Paris Agreement.
