When all the major economies of the world have been adversely hit by the financial crisis, the banking industry in Egypt remains largely stable, reflecting its relative isolation from and resilience to the global crisis. Egypt has shown considerable progress in the banking sector reforms over the years. The central bank’s NPL management plan has helped banks to settle around 90% of total outstanding NPLs. With the rapid merger and acquisitions in the recent past, the banking sector has become more strong and efficient. The number of banks operating in Egypt reduced to 39 as of the end of December 2008 from 57 in 2004.
As per our latest industry report titled “Egypt Banking Sector Analysis”, Egyptian banks have significantly intensified their lending activity in the recent years. Credit facilities provided to the business segment contribute to the majority of bank loans. However, foreign sector loans are experiencing rapid expansion on account of rise in loans to the private business segment, mostly to the trade sector in foreign currency. In future, banks are expected to further intensify their lending activities with the rising demand for loans from domestic as well as foreign sector. Resultantly, the bank loans are expected to grow at a CAGR of about 13% during the period spanning from 2009-10 to 2013-14.
