Taarek Refaat
During the 2025 International Arab Banking Summit, held in Paris under the patronage of French President Emmanuel Macron, Hassan Abdullah, Governor of the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE), was honored with the prestigious "Governor of the Year 2025" award by the Union of Arab Banks.
The summit, which was organized by the Union of Arab Banks, took place under the theme "Economic Resilience in the Face of Geopolitical Changes," and featured cooperation with French, European, and international banking federations.
Wissam Fattouh, Secretary General of the Union of Arab Banks praised Abdullah for his exceptional leadership and decision-making, noting that his bold decisions and strategic vision have been instrumental in managing challenging issues.
Fattouh highlighted Abdullah's role in formulating effective monetary policies, as well as his distinguished supervisory and oversight role over Egypt's banking sector.
He further elaborated that Abdullah's most significant achievements included recalibrating Egypt's monetary policy to align with the broader economic objectives, regulating the foreign exchange market, and implementing reforms that led to a record high of over $47 billion in foreign exchange reserves in 2024—the highest level in the country's history.
He also acknowledged the CBE's successes under Abdullah's leadership, particularly in facilitating remittances from Egyptians abroad and spearheading numerous strategic projects that contributed to Egypt's economic resilience.
Given these significant accomplishments, Abdullah's leadership has rightfully earned him the title of Banker of the Year 2025.
