18 EGYPT: OBJECTIVES, STRATEGIES & CHOICES 18
19 Egypt Sukuk Model Objectives To diversify the source of funding To broaden our investor base To raise funds for development & infrastructure projects, social services, and PPP as well. Strategies & choices Egypt follows a Top Down approach, reflecting a serious government commitment to develop sukuk market. Segregate among Sovereign & Corporate sukuk governing rules, due to different dynamics of each type. Promulgated the sukuk law regulating sovereign & corporate process in May
20 Egypt strategies & choices Egypt is targeting both international and domestic markets, however, it concentrates on developing domestic markets infrastructure. Egypt sukuk law is based on all kinds of Shariah contracts and allows all kind of contracts innovation according to Shariah principals. Sovereign sukuk law is based on Asset Based model not asset backed model. Sovereign sukuk can be issued by central government, municipalities and all government entities A sovereign Supreme Asset Valuation Committee is to be established from high officials to evaluate sovereign assets (land, roads, buildings etc.). 20
21 Egypt strategies & choices Sovereign sukuk are mainly issued to create new assets. Egypt preferred to have a Sovereign Central SPV for all domestic sovereign sukuk issuances ensuring a regular sukuk issuance calendar. The sovereign SPV is composed from the domestic market stakeholders such as MOF, CBE..etc. Egypt has a Central Shariah Committee, it is composed of 7-11 members according to standards stated in law. Non Egyptian & well known shariah scholars are allowed to join it. Ijarah or hybrid Ijarah are the most appealing structures for international & local investors, however, a huge demand is emerging for short term sukuk from local banking sector. Sukuk certificates are tax exempted. Sukuk law complies with foreign ownership of lands law and does not conflict with it. 21
