The Central Bank of Egypt (CBE), on behalf of the Ministry of Finance, is set to issue LE 14.5 billion in treasury bills , Jan. 26, 2020.
The T-bills will be offered in two installments; the first installment is valued at LE 4 billion with a 91-day term and the second is worth LE 10.5 billion with a 266-day term. For the current fiscal year, the budget deficit is estimated to record LE 445.1 billion, or 7.2 percent, planned by the ministry to be financed through treasury bills and bonds and through international and Arab loans. The Monetary Policy Committee of the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) kept the overnight deposit rate, the overnight lending rate, and the rate of the main operation unchanged during meeting, Jan. 16. The overnight deposit rate, the overnight lending rate, and the rate of the main operation are kept at 12.25 percent, 13.25 percent, and 12.75 percent, respectively. Moreover, credit and discount rates are to 12.75 percent. A number of economists said the appeal of foreigners to Egyptian debt instruments would continue even after interest rates were cut. Experts predict that interest rates on debt instruments will continue to fall due to falling interest rates, especially as they recorded a decline in their latest offer. The Ministry of Finance aims to reduce the government debt to GDP ratio to 82.5 percent by the end of June 2020 and to 77.5 percent by the end of June 2022. |
