1. Country / Territory Brief

Since early 2000, the pace of structural reforms, including fiscal, monetary policies, privatization and new business legislations,
helped Egypt move towards a more market-oriented economy and prompted increased foreign investment, which has helped
transform Egypt into a more modern market economy. The reforms and policies have strengthened macroeconomic annual
growth results. Foreign firms are aiding economic diversification, improving the quality of human capital through better
managerial and technical skills, increasing employment opportunities and assisting the transfer of technologies. Leading
petroleum firms are helping the government to exploit its rich oil and gas endowment and generating budget revenue. Egypt's
main exports consist of natural gas, and non-petroleum products such as ready-made clothes, cotton textiles, medical and
petrochemical products, citrus fruits, rice and dried onion, and more recently cement, steel, and ceramics.

Egypt is part of a number of regional and global trade initiatives, and it acceded to the World Trade Organisation in 1995. Among
others Egypt is a part of COMESA, GAFTA, EU-Egypt Partnership, Agadir Free Trade, Egypt-Turkey and Egypt-EFTA Free
Trade Agreements. Some of the trading partners of Egypt include USA, Italy, India, China, Germany and Russia. ITC has been
active on the ground in Egypt supporting the development of its processed foods and engineering goods sectors. Egypt is
currently under interim government until full political transition is completed.
