Circular dated March 30, 2026 regarding banks activating the remote work mechanism on Sunday of every week during the month of April 2026
The Central Bank of Egypt mandates that banks activate a remote work mechanism every Sunday throughout April 2026, as deemed appropriate by each institution. This directive requires banks to maintain uninterrupted customer service and banking operations at branches, ensure the continuity of work in head office departments, and keep call centers operational. Additionally, banks must monitor ATM feeds, perform periodic maintenance, coordinate with cash transport companies, and enhance cybersecurity monitoring for electronic channels. The measure will be reviewed after the end of April.
