1 BALANCE OF PAYMENTS RECORDS A SURPLUS The Central Egypt (CBE) revealed that Egypt s Balance Of Payments (BOP) recorded a surplus of USD7 billion in Jul./Dec. 2016/17 against an overall deficit of USD 3.4 billion in the same period last year. This is mainly attributed to the notable improvement in the performance of the Capital and Financial Account, which unfolded net inflow of USD17.6 billion (against USD6.2 billion). Net Foreign Direct Investments in Egypt moved up 37.7% to around USD4.3 billion and portfolio investments recorded net inflow of USD212.9 million compared to USD1.5 billion outflow in the same period one year earlier. Net borrowing also rose 60% to around USD6 billion. Data also shows that the trade deficit declined by USD2 billion in Jul.-Dec. 2016/17 to USD17.9 billion, where exports increased by about 14.4%. In Oct./Dec. 2016, the overall BOP surplus increased to USD5.1 billion (from USD 1.9 billion in Jul./Sept. 2016). This came in the wake of the decision of the liberalization of the Egyptian Pound exchange rate in November 2016, to be quoted according to the dynamics of supply and demand. This decision had a positive impact on the BOP components during the period CBE Statement CBE Official Website IN THIS ISSUE CBE s New Definition For SMEs Exempting Imported Sugar From Tariffs Remittances Rise Annual CPI Rises New Russian Industrial Zone World Bank Delegation Visits Egypt 1
2 CBE S NEW DEFINITION FOR SMES The CBE s Board approved in its meeting on the 28 th of February a new definition for Small and Medium (SMEs), aiming at covering a larger number of companies under the SMEs initiative. The new definition includes the following changes: Micro Existing Companies (Annual Revenues) New Companies (Paid-In Capital) New Definition Old Definition New Definition Old Definition Less Than EGP1 Mn. Less Than EGP1 Mn. Less Than EGP50k Less Than EGP50k Small EGP1 Mn. - Less Than EGP50 Mn. EGP10 Mn. - Less Than EGP20 Mn. (EGP50k- EGP5 Mn.) (EGP50K - EGP3 Mn.) (EGP50k- EGP5 Mn.)

The new definition eliminated the Very Small category, whose annual revenues were previously stated to be from EGP1 million to less than EGP10 million. The new definition kept the workforce volume unchanged at less than 10 workers for Micro, and less than 200 workers for Small and Medium-sized. The CBE is also launching a new initiative worth EGP10 billion to fund the working capital of medium-sized enterprises, to be directed to industrial, agribusiness and renewable energy companies, with an interest rate of 12%. Egypt s Prime Minister, Sherif Ismail, issued a decree, exempting imported raw sugar from custom tariffs during the period from the 15 th of March until the end of December Previously, Supply and Internal Trade Minister, Ali El-Meselhy, also declared that the price of unsubsidised sugar will be unified at EGP10.5 per kilogram in order to control the price disparity in the Egyptian market. 2
