Occupying the northeast corner of the African continent,
Egypt is bisected by the highly fertile Nile valley, where most economic activity
takes place. Egypt's economy was highly centralized during the rule of former
President Gamal Abdel NASSER but opened up considerably under former Presidents
Anwar EL-SADAT and Mohamed Hosni MUBARAK. Cairo from 2004 to 2008 aggressively
pursued economic reforms to attract foreign investment and facilitate GDP
growth. Despite the relatively high levels of economic growth in recent years,
living conditions for the average Egyptian remained poor and contributed to
public discontent. After unrest erupted in January 2011, the Egyptian
Government backtracked on economic reforms, drastically increasing social
spending to address public dissatisfaction, but political uncertainty at the
same time caused economic growth to slow significantly, reducing the government's
revenues. Tourism, manufacturing, and construction were among the hardest hit
sectors of the Egyptian economy, and economic growth is likely to remain slow
during the next several years. The government drew down foreign exchange
reserves by more than 50% in 2011 and 2012 to support the Egyptian pound and
the dearth of foreign financial assistance - as a result of unsuccessful
negotiations with the International Monetary Fund over a multi-billion dollar
loan agreement which have dragged on more than 20 months - could precipitate
fiscal and balance of payments crises in 2013.
