Factors affecting gold prices

Local gold prices are driven by several factors, chief among them the movement of the ounce on global markets, the exchange rate of the Egyptian pound against the US dollar, and supply and demand in the local market, as well as developments in global interest rates and investment demand for the precious metal.

The prices quoted are for raw gold and exclude workmanship (masna'eya) and hallmarking fees. Final prices for gold jewelry vary from one jeweler to another depending on workmanship charges and design.
