World Bank Projects Egyptian Economy to Grow at an Average of 4.6%
The World Bank expects the Egyptian economy to experience notable improvements in growth rates over the next two fiscal years, projecting the average GDP growth rate at 4.6% annually during FY 2025/2026 and FY 2026/2027. This growth is expected to be supported by strong net exports and improvements in overall macroeconomic conditions.
According to the World Bank’s Global Economic Prospects report, easing price pressures and improvements in global financial conditions are expected to support private consumption in Egypt in the coming period, thereby boosting economic activity.
The report also indicated that private investment in Egypt is expected to remain strong, supported by a monetary policy leaning towards easing, along with the government’s continued implementation of structural reforms aimed at improving the business climate and increasing private sector participation.
The World Bank projected that Egypt’s GDP growth rate for the current fiscal year 2025/2026 will reach around 4.3%, compared to 4.4% in the previous fiscal year 2024/2025, and is expected to rise to approximately 4.8% in FY 2026/2027.
