Egyptian bonds' risk premiums drop
The Media Center of the Council of Ministers published infographics illustrating a significant improvement in the performance of Egyptian bonds. They recorded a decrease in the risk premium to its lowest level since 2014, reflecting increased investor confidence in the Egyptian economy. This improvement is supported by an increased economic growth rate of 5.1% during the fiscal year 2025/2026, as well as a rise in international reserves to $57.2 billion, and a reduction in external debt service payments by up to 72.2% by 2030. The credit rating also highlighted that Egypt is the largest African country in terms of sukuk (Islamic bonds) holdings. Despite the deterioration in the risk premium on sovereign bonds, these developments enhance the government’s ability to more flexibly manage its financing and achieve better financial stability.
