The Egyptian government has approved an initiative to support priority industrial sectors with a reduced 15% interest rate, effective January 16, 2025. This initiative, managed by the Ministry of Finance, allocates 30 billion Egyptian pounds to finance machinery, equipment, and production lines. Priority will be given to projects in areas most in need of development, particularly in Upper Egypt and the Suez Canal region, aiming to boost local value added and employment.
