Slvr Communities has officially entered Egypt's real estate market, unveiling an ambitious plan to invest EGP 30bn over the next five years.
This strategy highlights the company's strong financial foundation and deep industry expertise, reinforcing its commitment to impactful growth.
Ahmed El-Sweisy, Chairman of Slvr Communities, highlighted Egypt's ambitious urban development plan, which has created promising investment opportunities and fostered the rise of strong real estate players.
El-Sweisy said that Slvr Communities is committed to making a significant impact in the sector within a short timeframe.
He added, 'Believing in the Egyptian government's ambitious vision for urban development, we established Slvr Communities to contribute to this transformation. Our aim is to develop integrated projects that complement state initiatives while fulfilling the diverse needs of customers across residential and investment sectors.'
He further stated that Slvr Communities boasts a robust land bank, reinforcing its position as a key player in the Egyptian market. The company owns three land plots in different locations across New Cairo and plans to launch three projects in 2025. These include a residential development in the Sixth Settlement, a 3,200-sqm commercial, administrative, and medical project in the South Academy area, and the RVR project, which is currently being launched.
He noted, 'We selected east Cairo for our first three projects in 2025 due to its strong investment potential, the government's commitment to infrastructure development and service enhancement, and the area's high occupancy rates, making it a prime destination for both customers and investors.'
Slvr Communities' chairman explained that the company is currently negotiating to expand its land portfolio in Sheikh Zayed City and a coastal area. Slvr Communities aims to diversify its investment portfolio to meet customer demand for distinctive projects in various locations.
He disclosed that all company projects are self-financed, reflecting its strong financial position, pointed out that the company seeks to expand its projects across different regions, establishing a presence in the largest number of new cities within a short timeframe to meet the growing demand for diverse developments.
The company continuously studies attractive investment opportunities, carefully selecting those that meet the highest standards of quality and excellence for its customers, El-Sweisy concluded.
Mohamed Sabea, Chief Commercial Officer of the company, said that the RVR project is located in the Fifth Settlement of New Cairo, overlooking Gamal Abdel Nasser Axis.
Spanning over 2,000 sqm, the project is a commercial and medical development with a ground floor and four additional floors. The company has strategically selected a prime location for its first project, aiming to introduce an exceptional real estate model that will leave a lasting mark in the Fifth Settlement, Sabea added.
He noted that the company has a clear and structured timeline for the project's implementation. Excavation and leveling work began in January, with the project set for delivery by 2028. To ensure the highest standards, the company has partnered with leading industry experts, including Hafez Consultants, led by Mohamed Hafez, as the project's engineering consultant, EHFS for managing and operating the medical units, and GATEWAY as business development consultant—each a well-established entity with a strong track record in its respective field.
He added that the company aims to achieve EGP 6bn in sales during 2025 following the launch of its first project, alongside plans to introduce two more projects within the year. This sales strategy aligns with the company's execution plan, ensuring timely project completion and delivery to customers while maintaining the highest quality standards.
Eng. Mohamed Hafez, Chairman of Hafez Consultants, emphasized that he meticulously selects projects that complement his firm's portfolio, ensuring they showcase distinctive architectural and engineering elements.
Leveraging its extensive expertise, the firm enhances these developments, turning them into architectural landmarks. The RVR project, with its prime strategic location, offers an ideal opportunity to craft an innovative and distinctive design, Hafez said.
He added that having a shared vision between the consultancy firm and the project's developer streamlines the process, fostering creativity and innovation. With both parties committed to achieving an optimal design that aligns with the project's operational requirements, the results are greatly enhanced. This approach is further reinforced by the early involvement of a dedicated operations management company, as demonstrated by the agreement with EHFS to oversee the project's management and operations.
For his part, Dr. Mohamed Hesham, Country Director of Facilities and Operations at EHFS, stated that the collaboration with Slvr Communities adds significant value to his company's portfolio of leading and distinguished projects. It ensures harmony between the architectural consultancy firm and the facilities management company, optimizing the use of the project without compromising the innovative and unique design, even as the project reaches completion. This reflects Slvr Communities' attention to every detail.
Furthermore, Egyptian singer Mohamed Noor chose Slvr Communities to purchase a unit in their RVR project, becoming one of the company's key clients in its first real estate venture. This decision was driven by the project's competitive advantages, including its strategic location, cutting-edge architectural design, and strong financial solvency.
Mohamed Noor said, 'I am proud to be one of the first clients to choose the RVR project for investment. It is a promising future investment, located in a pivotal area in New Cairo, making it the ideal choice for me. The team behind Slvr Communities possesses strong expertise and a clear, ambitious vision, which gives me confidence in my investment with them.'

EFG Holding Preserves Growth Momentum، Demonstrating Resilient Performance in the Second Quarter Results of 2025

EFG Holding، a financial institution with a universal bank in Egypt and the leading investment bank in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA)، announced today its results for the second quarter of 2025. The Group's revenues recorded a 21% Y-o-Y increase to reach EGP 6.1 billion، driven by strong results across all business lines، particularly EFG Finance، its non-bank financial institutions (NBFI) platform، and Bank NXT، its commercial bank. The Group's total operating expenses (including provisions & ECL) increased 22% Y-o-Y to EGP 4.1 billion، on higher provisions & ECL، predominantly in EFG Finance، and higher other G&A expenses. Meanwhile، employee expenses were flat Y-o-Y. With the increase in revenues surpassing the increase in expenses، EFG Holding's net operating profit and net profit before taxes increased 19% Y-o-Y and 21% Y-o-Y، respectively. Consequently، net profit after tax and minority interest inched up 2% Y-o-Y to reach EGP 802 million in 2Q25. Karim Awad، Group CEO of EFG Holding، commented، 'Our second quarter results demonstrate the continued resilience and strength with which EFG Holding operates، supported by its diversified platform and strong geographic footprint. EFG Holding's first half of 2025 has been defined by meaningful milestones and strong momentum. Foremost among these is Valu's listing on the Egyptian Exchange (EGX) in June، complemented by Amazon's decision to exercise its Option Agreement with EFG Holding to acquire a direct stake in Valu. The period's financial results highlight the standout performance of EFG Finance، driven by Valu and Bank NXT. Our Asset Management platform continues to expand، with assets under management growing، while the Investment Banking division closed transactions totaling more than USD 1 billion in the quarter. EFG Hermes، the investment bank، maintained its resilient performance for the second quarter of the year، with Holding & Treasury Activities، Brokerage، and the Buy Side revenues collectively rising 131% Y-o-Y. Although the Investment Banking business continues to demonstrate solid performance this quarter، Y-o-Y revenues appear lower due to an exceptionally high base in the comparative period. Excluding this high base effect، the underlying performance of the advisory business remains robust and promising. Thus، EFG Hermes' operating revenues came flat Y-o-Y at EGP 2.7 billion. Holding & Treasury Activities recorded a strong rebound، generating EGP 397 million in revenues versus a loss of EGP 503 million in 2Q24. Brokerage revenues rose 25% Y-o-Y، driven by higher revenues generated particularly by Egypt، followed by Kuwait and the UAE markets. EFG Hermes operating expenses (including provisions & ECL) inched up 3% Y-o-Y to EGP 2.2 billion، on higher other G&A expenses، higher provisions & ECL، and despite lower employee expenses. EFG Hermes reported net profit after tax and minority interest of EGP 268 million، down 11% Y-o-Y، on lower profitability generated by the Investment Banking division. EFG Finance، the Group's Non-Bank Financial Institutions (NBFI) platform، continued to deliver strong results in 2Q25، with its revenues surging 66% Y-o-Y to EGP 1.8 billion، supported by broad-based growth across all lines of business. Valu led the performance with a 71% Y-o-Y increase in revenues، driven by substantial securitization gains and higher net fees & commissions amid a rise in loan issuances، followed by Tanmeyah and Corp-Solutions، which continued its upward trajectory with Leasing's portfolio reaching EGP 17.7 billion in 1H25، increasing 102% Y-o-Y، fueled by targeted efforts to onboard large creditworthy clients. Valu issued EGP 4.7 billion worth of new loans in 2Q25، up 60% Y-o-Y. EFG Finance's operating expenses rose 82% Y-o-Y to EGP 1.2 billion، mainly due to inflation-driven G&A costs، higher provisions، increased employee expenses and one-time expenses related to Valu's listing. EFG Finance's net operating profit and net profit before taxes rose 39% Y-o-Y and 37% Y-o-Y، respectively، in 2Q25. However، net profit after tax and minority interest declined 15% Y-o-Y to EGP 230 million، due to higher minority interest charges following the distribution of Valu shares to EFG Holding's shareholders and the decline in EFG Holding's ownership from 95% to 67%. Bank NXT، the commercial bank، delivered a strong performance، delivering 30% Y-o-Y revenue growth to reach EGP 1.6 billion in 2Q25. This was primarily driven by higher net interest income، in addition to an increase in interest-earning assets. Operating expenses، including provisions & ECL، rose 23% Y-o-Y to EGP 694 million in 2Q25، primarily due to higher salaries، as well as higher other G&A expenses، which were offset by a 27% decline in provisions and ECL. The Bank's net profit after tax and minority interest added 39% Y-o-Y to reach EGP 304 million in 2Q25، as revenue growth outpaced the growth in expenses. 'Amid ongoing geopolitical volatility and persistent macroeconomic headwinds، market dynamics across the MENA region remained varied، both in terms of liquidity and overall performance. Nonetheless، the Brokerage business delivered notable growth in total executions، driven primarily by robust activity in Kuwait and the UAE. Bank NXT continued to broaden its portfolio، diligently cultivating a strong base that will underpin future growth and generate lasting value. Anchored by a solid foundation، the firm is well-positioned to adeptly navigate changing market conditions and confidently capitalize on emerging opportunities for the benefit of clients and shareholders alike،' concluded Awad.
