The General Authority for Financial Supervision issued Decision No. 93 of 2023 to amend the licensing framework for medium and small enterprise financing companies by mandating a minimum paid-up capital of seventy-five million Egyptian pounds (or foreign currency equivalent). Licensed entities must align their financial status within one year of the decision's effective date, with the Board authorized to grant a two-year extension upon receiving valid justifications. The regulation takes effect the day following its publication in the Egyptian Gazette and on the Authority's electronic website.
