EGP strengthens as US$ dips below 51, confidence rebounds

The US dollar's exchange rate declined notably at the end of yesterday's trading, falling below 51 Egyptian pounds to 50.81 across all Egyptian banks. This followed record highs of 51.76 pounds in some banks, driven by global trade tensions.

Reasons for the decline:

The dollar's decline coincided with easing global market tensions and a return to stability after trade dispute escalations and US tariffs caused investor concern and temporarily weakened emerging market currencies.

Improved investor confidence:

The return of relative calm to global markets eased pressure on emerging market currencies, positively impacting the Egyptian pound by boosting foreign investor confidence and increasing foreign currency inflows to local banks.
