EGP sharp decline to help narrowing current account deficit – Capital Economics

Cairo – Mubasher: The sharp fall in the Egyptian pound since it was floated earlier this month should help to narrow the country’s current account deficit and support a pick-up in private capital inflows, said a recent report compiled by Capital Economics.

Capital Economics pointed out that the country’s currency flotation will be positive if it is backed up by further economic reforms, as this should eventually support a period of stronger economic growth.
