Sisi on Saturday had a meeting with Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouli, Planning Minister Hala el Saeed and Finance Minister Mohamed Maait, among others.

The meeting touched upon developments of macroeconomics, Presidential Spokesman Bassam Rady said in a statement.

El Saeed pointed out that the GDP of the 2018/2019 fiscal year achieved growth rate of 5.6%; the best in 11 years, despite the slowdown of global economy growth rate.

The minister of planning reiterated that exports and investments have contributed by 80% to that growth, noting that the unemployment rate dropped from 13.4% in 2013 to 7.5% in the second half of the current year.
