Central Bank of Egypt – External Position
Preface
The External Position of the Egyptian Economy Report is a series produced by the Economic Research Sector in the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE). The report tracks, on a quarterly basis, the international transactions that the Egyptian economy conducts with the rest of the world. It relies, for this purpose, on the national statistics that are regularly compiled in line with the SDDS prescriptions.
Enthused by the CBE's keenness to enhance its disclosure, transparency and communication policy, the Report is meant to serve several functions. Generally, it spreads, to a broad array of readers, knowledge of Egypt’s external accounts including the balance of payments, external debt, international investment position and external liquidity. Particularly, it monitors key external sector performance indicators of the economy in order to identify areas of policy needs. The information revealed in this series has also significant implications for decision-making, investment climate, doing-business environment and sovereign credit ratings.
The Report contains 6 sections. The first section gives a performance portrait of the key components of Egypt's Balance of Payments (BOP). The second and third review developments related to the International Investment Position (IIP) and external liquidity. The fourth and fifth show Egypt's external debt in its different classifications and the exchange rate developments. The last section is a statistical part that provides more details on the above mentioned five sections. This is in addition to a glossary.
The report is available at the CBE's website www.cbe.org.eg. Hard copies can be obtained from the Economic Research Sector, 8th floor, 54 El Gomhoreya Street, Cairo.

Central Bank of Egypt – External Position
Overview Following the liberalization of the exchange rate in late 2016, the Central Bank decided to abolish the repatriation mechanism on December 4, 2018, which was put in place for any new investments in foreign currency. As a result, official reserves were strongly rebuilt again through official channels, and the Egyptian pound improved against the US dollar. Egypt's transactions with the external world recorded an overall BOP deficit of only US$ 102.5 million during FY 2018/2019 (against a surplus of about US$ 12.8 billion during FY 2017/2018). The current account deficit increased to about US$ 8.2 billion (against about US$ 6.0 billion). The capital and financial account resulted in a net inflow of about US$ 8.5 billion (against about US$ 22.0 billion). The increase in the current account deficit was due to the following developments:
- The trade deficit increased by 2.0 percent to about US$ 38.0 billion.
- The income balance ran a deficit of about US$ 8.3 billion (against about US$ 6.3 billion).
- Net unrequited current transfers declined by 5.1 percent to about US$ 25.1 billion.
- On the other hand, the services balance surplus surged by 17.2 percent, recording about US$ 13.0 billion.
The capital and financial account revealed a decline in net inflows to about US$ 8.5 billion (against about US$ 22.0 billion). Egypt’s International Investment Position (IIP) at end of June 2019 recorded net external liabilities (assets minus liabilities) of about US$ 166.3
billion, up by 12.9 percent compared to end of June 2018. Net International Reserves (NIR) increased by US$ 0.2 billion to reach US$ 44.5 billion, covering 8.0 months of merchandise imports at end of June 2019. The increase was a result of the rise in foreign currencies by US$ 2.3 billion and of gold by about US$ 0.2 billion and the decrease in SDRs by US$ 2.3 billion. During the preparation of the Report, NIR reached US$ 45.4 billion at end of November 2019. Banks’ net foreign assets increased by US$ 1.7 billion during FY 2018/2019. Foreign currency deposits with banks increased by 6.8 percent during the period concerned, reaching US$ 42.9 billion at end of June 2019. As a percentage of total deposits, they made up 21.2 percent. Total external debt recorded US$ 108.7 billion at end of June 2019, up by 17.3 percent (compared with about US$ 92.6 billion at end of June 2018). The external debt remains within manageable limits, and its position continues to have a favorable structure, as 89.8 percent of the debt is medium- and long-term. The weighted average of the inter-bank foreign exchange market rate revealed that the Egyptian pound interbank rate appreciated by 7.1 percent during FY 2018/2019, as the EGP reached 16.7057 per US dollar at end of June 2019, against EGP 17.8878 per US dollar at end of June 2018.

BOP Performance
gypt's transactions with the external world recorded an
overall BOP deficit of only US$ 102.5 million during FY 2018/2019 (against a surplus of about US$ 12.8 billion during FY 2017/2018), as the overall surplus of US$ 1.7 billion during the second half of FY 2018/2019 broadly offset the overall deficit during the first half of the year. The current account deficit increased to about US$ 8.2 billion (against about US$ 6.0 billion). The capital and financial account recorded a net inflow of about US$ 8.5 billion (against about US$ 22.0 billion). Chart (1) shows the developments in Egypt’s BOP main components, on quarterly basis.
1- Current Account The increase in the current account deficit was mainly traceable to the following developments: - The trade deficit increased by 2.0
percent to about US$ 38.0 billion (against about US$ 37.3 billion).
- The income balance ran a deficit of about US$ 8.3 billion (against about US$ 6.3 billion).
- Net unrequited current transfers declined by 5.1 percent to about US$ 25.1 billion (against about US$ 26.5 billion).
- On the other hand, the services balance surplus surged by 17.2 percent, recording about US$ 13.0 billion (against about US$ 11.1 billion).
1.1: Trade in Goods Trade volume increased by 6.9 percent, to reach US$ 95.0 billion (31.4 percent of GDP) during FY 2018/19. The trade deficit increased by US$ 0.8 billion, to reach US$ 38.0 billion (12.6 percent of GDP) against US$ 37.3 billion, due to the following developments: Merchandise exports increased by 10.3 percent to reach US$ 28.5 billion, due to the increase in oil exports by 31.7 percent, to US$ 11.6 billion (40.6 percent of total exports) and the decrease in non-oil exports by 0.7 percent to US$ 16.9 billion (59.4 percent of total exports). As a result, the exports/ imports ratio mounted to 42.8 percent, from 40.9 percent.
Merchandise imports increased by 5.4 percent to reach US$ 66.5 billion, due to the increase in non-oil imports by 8.6 percent to US$ 55.0 billion (82.6 percent of total imports) and the decrease in oil imports by 7.5 percent to US$ 11.5 billion (17.4 percent of total imports).

Hereunder is the geographical distri-bution of merchandise exports and imports: - Egypt's main trade partners in terms
of exports were USA, Italy, UAE, UK, Germany, India, Malta, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Switzerland. These countries combined, accounted for some 55.2 percent of total exports.
- As for imports, Egypt's trade partners were China, Saudi Arabia, Russia, UAE, USA, Germany, Turkey, UK, Switzerland, and Kuwait. These countries combined, accounted for some 52.7 percent of total imports.
1.2: Services Balance Services surplus surged by 17.2 percent to about US$ 13.0 billion (against about US$ 11.1 billion), as the increase in services receipts outpaced that in services payments, as follows: 1.2.1: Services receipts increased by 13.7 percent to some US$ 24.4 billion (against about US$ 21.5 billion), driven by the increase in most of its items as follows: Tourism revenues increased by
28.2 percent to about US$ 12.6 billion (against about US$ 9.8 billion), driven by the increase in the number of tourist nights to 131.5 million nights (against 102.6 million nights). It is worth mentioning that tourism revenues represented 51.5% of services receipts.

Central Bank of Egypt – External Position 3 Other services receipts increased
by 8.4 percent to about US$ 2.5 billion (against about US$ 2.3 billion), due to the increase in the receipts of communication services, legal & consulting fees, machinery maintenance & rental services, insurance services, and advertising & market research services.
Government services receipts increased by 12.9 percent to US$ 718.8 million (against US$ 636.7 million), due to the increase in other government services receipts.
On the other hand, transportation receipts decreased by 1.2 percent to about US$ 8.6 billion (against some US$ 8.7 billion), due to the decrease in receipts of Egyptian aviation companies. Meanwhile, Suez Canal dues increased by 0.4 percent to about US$ 5.73 billion, as a result of the rise in net tonnage by 7.5 percent, despite SDR depreciation against the US dollar by 2.3 percent.
1.2.2: Services payments increased by 9.9 percent, to about US$ 11.4 billion (against about US$ 10.4 billion), driven by the increase in most of its items as follows: Other services payments increased
by 21.5 percent to about US$ 6.0 billion (against about US$ 4.9 billion), driven by the increase in the amounts transferred abroad by foreign petroleum companies, construction fees, insurance fees, legal & consulting fees, computer services & subscription to magazines & newspapers fees, and fees for entertainment, cultural & recreational services.
Travel payments increased by 18.4 percent to about US$ 2.9 billion (against about US$ 2.5 billion), due to the increase in e-card payments abroad, expenses of tourism, and expenses for training, technical & educational missions abroad.
Transportation payments increased by 21.1 percent, to about US$ 1.8 billion (against about US$ 1.5 billion), due to the rise in the amounts transferred abroad by foreign navigation companies, and amounts transferred abroad for rental of aircrafts at foreign airports and repair of ships at foreign ports.
On the other hand, government services payments fell by 53.6 percent to US$ 692.4 million (against about US$ 1.5 billion), reflecting the decline in other governmental expenses, and the salaries of governmental employees seconded abroad.
1.3: Income Balance Investment income deficit recorded about US$ 8.3 billion (against about US$ 6.3 billion), on the back of the rise in investment income payments by about US$ 2.2 billion to US$ 9.3 billion, due to the increase in profit transfers of foreign petroleum companies and interest on external debt. On the other hand, investment income receipts scaled up to about US$ 1.0 billion (against US$ 835.4 million), reflecting the rise in interest on Egyptians’ deposits abroad, and profit transfers of Egyptian companies' branches abroad.

1.4: Unrequited Current Transfers (Net)
Net unrequited current transfers
declined by 5.1 percent to about US$
25.1 billion (from about US$ 26.5
billion), mainly due to the decline in
net private transfers from about US$
26.3 billion to about US$ 24.8 billion,
driven by the decline in workers’
remittances by 4.7 percent. This came
despite the increase in net official
transfers to US$ 350.5 million (against
US$ 206.2 million).
Against this background, some of the
external balance indicators changed as
shown in chart (11).
2- Capital and Financial Account The capital and financial account recorded a net inflow of about US$ 8.5 billion during FY 2018/2019 (against about US$ 22.0 billion during FY 2017/2018), as an outcome of the following developments: A- Total FDI inflows registered about US$ 13.7 billion (against about US$ 13.2 billion), while total outflows posted about US$ 7.7 billion (against about US$ 5.4 billion). Accordingly, net FDI in Egypt amounted to about US$ 5.9 billion, as the net inflows for oil sector reached about US$ 3.6 billion, and the net inflows for the greenfield investments reached about US$ 1.4 billion. Also, transfers for buying real estates in Egypt by non-residents increased to US$ 825.6 million. The sectorial breakdown of total FDI inflows as depicted in chart (12) shows that the oil sector has the biggest share (74.3 percent). As for the other sectors, the majority of FDI went to the services sectors, with 14.2 percent distributed as follows: the real estate sector (6.0 percent), the financial sector (3.3 percent), the communi-cation and information technology sector (1.4 percent), tourism sector (0.6 percent), and other services sectors (2.9 percent). The share of the manufacturing sector was (5.1 percent), the construction sector (2.0 percent), the agricultural sector (0.4 percent), and the remaining portion was acquired by undistributed sectors.
Central Bank of Egypt – External Position 5
B- Portfolio investment in Egypt
registered a net inflow of about US$ 4.2 billion (compared to about US$ 12.1 billion). However, net portfolio investment in Egypt recorded net purchases of about US$ 10.1 billion in the second half of the year against net sales of US$ 5.9 billion in the first half of the year. This was mainly due to the volatility observed in global financial markets and especially emerging markets during that time.
C- Medium- and long-term loans &
facilities recorded net disburse-ments of about US$ 4.2 billion (against about US$ 7.9 billion). This was due to the retreat in disbursements of medium- and long-term loans and facilities to about US$ 6.7 billion (from about US$ 10.2 billion), while total repayments increased to about US$ 2.5 billion (from about US$ 2.3 billion).
D- Short-term suppliers' credit registered net disbursements of
about US$ 2.1 billion (against about US$ 2.4 billion).
E- The net change in the liabilities of
the CBE to the external world posted a net disbursement of about US$ 1.5 billion (against a net repayment of about US$ 3.9 billion).

Egypt’s IIP at end of June 2019 recorded net external liabilities (assets minus liabilities) of about US$ 166.3 billion, up by 12.9 percent, compared to US$ 147.3 billion at end of June 2018. The increase in negative net IIP came as a result of the slight increase in Egypt's total assets versus the increase in Egypt's total liabilities compared to end of June 2018.
Source: Appendix I, table (2). Assets and Liabilities by Component:
1-Assets increased by 3.8 percent to reach about US$ 81.2 billion at end of June 2019, from about US$ 78.2 billion at end of June 2018.
* Released as of September 2009 according to SDDS
requirements.
The increase was mainly due to the following developments: - Other investment assets increased by
about 10.5 percent, to reach about
US$ 28.4 billion.
- Foreign direct investment increased by 4.9 percent to about US$ 7.9 billion.
- Reserve assets increased by 0.8 percent to about US$ 43.9 billion.

A-Net International Reserves (NIR) As the gains of the reform program became clear and the foreign exchange resources increased, the CBE decided on 4 December, 2018 to terminate the Repatriation Mechanism for any new foreign currency portfolio investments. During FY 2018/2019, NIR increased by US$ 0.2 billion (against an increase of US$ 13.0 billion a year earlier) to reach US$ 44.5 billion, thus covering 8.0 months of merchandise imports at end of June 2019. The increase was a result of the rise in foreign currencies by US$ 2.3 billion and of gold by about US$ 0.2 billion and the decrease of SDRs by US$ 2.3 billion. During the preparation of the report, NIR reached US$ 45.4 billion at end of November 2019.

Foreign currency deposits with banks increased by 6.8 percent during the period concerned, reaching US$ 42.9 billion at end of June 2019. Likewise, local currency deposits increased by 15.8 percent. As such, the ratio of foreign currency deposits to total deposits made up 21.2 percent at end of June 2019.
Section IV
External Debt
Central Bank of Egypt – External Position 11
External Debt
External debt recorded US$ 108.7
billion at end of June 2019, up by 17.3
percent compared to June 2018. This
increase came as a result of the rise in
net disbursements of loans and
facilities by US$ 16.5 billion, while
most currencies of borrowing
depreciated versus the US dollar by
US$ 0.4 billion.
A- Breakdown by Maturity
By original maturity, external debt
reaffirmed its usual pattern of long-
term external debt predominance at
end of June 2019. Long-term external
debt accounted for US$ 82.4 billion or
75.8 percent of the total external debt,
whereas medium-term external debt
reached US$ 15.2 billion or 14.0
percent and short-term external debt
accounted for US$ 11.1 billion or 10.2
percent.
By residual maturity1, short-term
debt accounted for 21.2 percent of the
total external debt at end of June 2019,
compared to 10.2 percent classified by
original maturity. Meanwhile, medium-
and long-term external debt repre-
sented 78.8 percent of the total debt, in
comparison to 89.8 percent by original
maturity.
__________________________
1 While the analytical presentation of external debt by original maturity is the norm recommended in the External Debt Statistics Guide, residual maturity presentation still draws significant attention. In other words, compilation of external debt statistics based on original maturity helps in understanding the nature of capital flows; while the remaining maturity provides a profile of debt service payments, especially those falling due in the near term, and of potential liquidity risks facing the economy. Short-term debt by residual maturity comprises all components of short-term debt with original maturity of up to one year, and the amounts falling due –under medium- and long-term debt by original maturity– within one year or less.

External Debt Structure by Original MaturityEnd of June 2019
Central Bank of Egypt – External Position 12 B- Breakdown by Type
1- Medium-and long-term external debt increased by about US$ 17.3 billion to about US$ 97.6 billion (89.8 percent of total debt) at end of June 2019, up by 21.5 percent compared to June 2018.

F- External Debt Service
Debt service reached US$ 13.4 billion during FY 2018/2019 compared to US$ 13.3 billion during FY 2017/2018. This increase was mainly due to the increase in paid interest by about US$ 1.1 billion to record US$ 3.2 billion. On the other hand, installments repayment slightly decreased by about US$ 0.9 billion to reach US$ 10.2 billion.
G- External Debt Indicators5 As for the external debt in terms of international comparison, Egypt's debt remains within manageable limits. Based on IMF classification, comparing Egypt's key debt indicators with those of other regional country groups6 shows that: - Egypt's debt stock to GDP

Central Bank of Egypt – External Position 59
Glossary Balance of Payments: a statistical statement that summarizes, for a specific period of time, the economic transactions of an economy with the rest of the world. Bilateral Debt: Loans extended by a bilateral creditor. Bilateral Rescheduling Agreements: Rescheduling agreements reached bilaterally between the debtor and creditor countries. These are legally the equivalent of new loan agreements. After a Paris Club rescheduling, such agreements are required to put the debt restructuring set forth in the multinational Agreed Minute into effect.
Buyer’s Credit: A financial arrange-ment in which a bank or financial institution, or an export credit agency in the exporting country, extends a loan directly to a foreign buyer or to a bank in the importing country to pay for the purchase of goods and services from the exporting country (also known as financial credit). This term does not refer to credit extended directly from the buyer to the seller (for example, through advance payment for goods and services). Capital Account: a BOP account that covers capital transfers and the acquisition or disposal of non-produced non-financial items, such as patents. Current Account: a BOP account that covers all transactions in goods, services, income, and current transfers between residents and non- residents. Cutoff Date: The date (established at the time of a country’s first Paris Club debt reorganization / restructuring) before which loans must have been contracted in order for their debt service to be eligible for restructuring. New loans extended after the cutoff date are protected from future restructuring (subordination strategy).
In exceptional cases, arrears on post-cutoff-date debt can be deferred over short periods of time in restructuring agreements. Debt Instruments: Existing debt instruments typically arise out of contractual relationships under which an institutional unit (the debtor) has an unconditional liability to another institutional unit (the creditor) to repay principal with or without interest, or to pay interest without principal. These instruments include debt securities, loans, trade credit, and currency and deposits. Debt instruments may also be created by the force of law—in particular, obligations to pay taxes or to make other compulsory payments— or through rights and obligations that result in a debtor accepting an obligation to make future payment(s) to a creditor. Debt Service: Refers to payments in respect of both principal and interest. Actual debt service is the set of payments actually made to satisfy a debt obligation, including principal, interest, and any late payment fees. Scheduled debt service is the set of payments, including principal and interest, which is required to be made through the life of the debt. Debt Sustainability Analysis: A study of a country’s medium- to long-term debt situation. A country’s eligibility for support under the HIPC Initiative is determined on the basis of such an analysis, jointly under-taken by the staffs of the IMF, the World Bank, and the country concerned. External Debt: Gross external debt, at any given time, is the outstanding amount of those actual current, and not contingent liabilities that require payment(s) of interest and/or principal by the debtor at some point(s) in the future and that are owed to non-residents by residents of an economy.

Financial Account: a BOP account that covers transactions between residents and non-residents in direct, portfolio, other investment, financial derivatives, and reserve assets. Gross Domestic Product (GDP): the value of an economy's total output of goods and services, less intermediate consumption, plus net taxes on products and imports. It can be broken down by output, expenditure, or income components. The main expenditure aggregates are final consumption of household and government, gross fixed capital formation, changes in inventories, and imports and exports of goods and services. International Investment Position (IIP): The IIP is the stock of external financial assets and liabilities on a specified reference date, usually the end of the quarter or year. The change in position between two end- periods reflects financial transactions, valuation changes, and other adjustments occurring during the period. Long-Term External Debt: External debt that has a maturity of more than one year. Maturity can be defined either on an original or remaining basis. Multilateral Creditors: These cre-ditors are multilateral institutions such as the IMF and the World Bank, as well as other multilateral development banks. Official Development Assistance (ODA): Flows of official financing administered with the promotion of the economic development and welfare of developing countries as the main objective, and which are concessional in character with a grant element of at least 25 percent (using a fixed 10 percent rate of discount). By convention, ODA flows comprise contributions of donor government agencies, at all levels, to developing countries (“bilateral ODA”) and to
multilateral institutions. ODA receipts comprise disbursements by bilateral donors and multilateral institutions. Lending by export credit agencies - with the pure purpose of export promotion - is excluded. Original Maturity: the period of time from when the financial asset/liability was created to its final maturity date. Paris Club: An informal group of creditor governments that has met regularly in Paris since 1956 to reschedule bilateral debts; the French treasury provides the secretariat. Creditors meet with a debtor country to reschedule its debts as part of the international support provided to a country that is experiencing debt servicing difficulties and is pursuing an adjustment program supported by the IMF. The Paris Club does not have a fixed membership, and its meetings are open to all official creditors that accept its practices and procedures. The core creditors are mainly OECD member countries, but other creditors attend as relevant for a debtor country. Russia became a member in September 1997. Remaining (Residual) Maturity: The period of time until debt payments fall due. In the External Debt Guide, it is recommended that short-term remain-ing maturity of outstanding external debt be measured by adding the value of outstanding short-term external debt (original maturity) to the value of outstanding long-term external debt (original maturity) due in one year or less.
