Egypt emerged in 2025 as the best-performing equity market in the Middle East and North Africa, posting gains of over 40 percent and signaling a dramatic turnaround from the economic turmoil of previous years. The country overcame high inflation, currency depreciation, and geopolitical instability through a series of reforms, stabilization efforts, and increased foreign investment. Key sectors such as real estate, energy, tourism, and technology have driven growth, supported by ambitious projects and the Vision 2030 plan. While foreign investment has surged, particularly from the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, challenges remain in labor market participation and domestic liquidity, highlighting the need for deeper structural reforms. Despite these hurdles, Egypt's resilience and ongoing transformation offer hope for sustained economic progress and regional leadership.
