EGP strengthens to cUSD-EGP17.7 on Wednesday interbank dealings

The USD-EGP traded at a range of EGP17.01-17.04 buying and EGP17.63-17.70 for selling on Wednesday in the interbank market, compared to EGP17.42-17.58 for buying and EGP17.84-17.97 for selling on Tuesday, the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) data showed. Volumes remained small, according to Reuters. Banks reportedly trade the dollar at USD-EGP16.90 for buying and USD-EGP17.57 for selling. News citing IMF’s Chief, Christine Lagarde, saying that she would recommend the board approve Egypt’s loan request when it meets on 11 November has eased pressure on the EGP on bets that there will be additional USD inflows, some bankers said.
