egypt ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
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.
