The International Monetary Fund (IMF) on Tuesday raised its forecast for Egypt's economic growth in 2025 to 4 per cent, up from 3.8 per cent in April, signalling a moderate recovery compared with 2024. The revision, published in the IMF's latest World Economic Outlook update, marks a 0.2 percentage point upgrade from its April projections. For 2026, the Fund trimmed its forecast slightly to 4.1 per cent from 4.3 per cent, reflecting a 0.2 percentage point downgrade. The IMF's latest update comes amid expectations that Egypt's economy will gradually strengthen as structural reforms, foreign investment inflows and easing inflationary pressures take hold.
