Egypt’s economy is expected to expand by 4.6% in the 2025/26 fiscal year, supported by a rebound in manufacturing, stronger tourism receipts, and a gradual decline in inflation, according to a Reuters poll of economists.
The country recorded GDP growth of 4.5% in the 2024/25 fiscal year, up from 2.4% the previous year, as economic reforms and an improved business climate began to yield results. Analysts noted that lower inflation and steady foreign investment have boosted overall confidence in the Egyptian economy.
However, experts warn that external challenges such as persistent trade tensions, high public debt, and regional instability could pose risks to the outlook. Continued policy consistency and efforts to stabilize the currency are seen as essential to sustaining the projected growth.
