It highlights that this assessment reflects a balance between the country&#8217;s growth prospects, ongoing economic reforms, and persistent external risks related to regional tensions.<\/p>\n<p>Key supporting factors highlighted include the level of foreign exchange reserves, which stood at $52.8 billion in March 2026, as well as the net foreign assets of the banking sector, which reached a record of around $30 billion. Despite a depreciation of about 13% of the Egyptian pound since the start of the crisis, Egypt continues to implement a more flexible exchange rate regime.<\/p>\n<p>According to S&#038;P, the stable outlook reflects the continuity of the economic reform program supported by the International Monetary Fund. However, the agency warns that a slowdown or reversal of these reforms, especially regarding exchange rate flexibility, could lead to a downgrade of the sovereign rating and increase the cost of external financing.<\/p>\n<p>The current account deficit is expected to widen to 4.8% of GDP in the 2025\/2026 fiscal year, compared to 4.2% a year earlier. This evolution is due to pressures continuing to weigh on the country&#8217;s main sources of foreign currency, including expatriate transfers, tourism, and Suez Canal revenues. However, the latter increased by 21% year-on-year, reaching nearly $3 billion in the first eight months of the fiscal year, compared to $2.5 billion in the same period of the previous year.<\/p>\n<p>The agency also notes that Egypt remains vulnerable as a net energy importer since 2023, especially in the face of disruptions in the supply of Israeli gas, which accounts for nearly 60% of its gas imports. In addition, fluctuations in global wheat and food prices continue to pose a significant risk to the Egyptian economy.<\/p>\n<p>S&#038;P also anticipates persistent volatility in portfolio investment flows. About $10 billion left the market within a month after the crisis broke out, compared to nearly $20 billion during the Russia-Ukraine war. At the same time, the country&#8217;s financing needs are expected to remain above 40% of GDP. Public debt, however, is expected to decline, dropping from 94% of GDP in 2023 to 89% in June 2026, before falling to 83% by 2029.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the Gulf Cooperation Council countries are expected to continue supporting the Egyptian economy through investments and deposits estimated at around $18 billion with the Central Bank of Egypt, at least until the completion of the IMF program scheduled for December 2026.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pdfprnt-buttons pdfprnt-buttons-post pdfprnt-top-bottom-left\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Standard &#038; Poor&#8217;s Global Ratings confirmed, in a report published on April 10, 2026, Egypt&#8217;s sovereign rating at B\/B, with a stable outlook.
