Egypt first devalued its currency by 48 percent in 2016, allowing it to float freely in order to meet a key demand by the International Monetary Fund to secure a three-year US$12 billion loan. The CBE announced the devaluation of the Egyptian pound for the second time in March by nearly 17 percent. The CBE, on Saturday October 1, raised the required reserve ratio in banks from 14 percent to 18 percent. The CBE confirmed in the periodic bulletin that the decision contributes to restricting the monetary policy it pursues. The Monetary Policy Committee of the Central Bank of Egypt, corresponding to February 2, fixed deposit rate, overnight lending rate, and the rate of the main operation at 16.25 percent, 17.25 percent, and 16.75 percent, respectively and the credit and discount rates were kept at 16.75 percent. The Monetary Policy Committee maintained, during its previous meeting in September 2022, deposit rate, overnight lending rate, and the rate of the main operation of the Central Bank at 11.25 percent, 21.25 percent, and 11.75 percent, respectively. The current basic interest rates, along with an increase in the percentage of cash reserves that banks are committed to keeping with the Central Bank of Egypt, are consistent with achieving the goal of price stability in the medium term, the CBE said at the time. |
