Central Bank Policy: Interest rate adjustments and liquidity management strategies implemented by the Central Bank of Egypt remain the primary levers for stabilizing the exchange rate.
Foreign Currency Demand: High demand from importers and businesses looking to settle foreign obligations can exert upward pressure on the dollar price.
Trade Balance: The gap between imports and exports significantly affects the availability of foreign currency reserves, influencing the strength of the national currency.
Tourism & Remittances: Inflows from tourism and remittances from Egyptians working abroad act as vital sources of foreign currency, helping to support the supply side of the market.

USD Forecast in Egypt

Looking ahead, the outlook for the USD to EGP exchange rate remains tied to the broader economic reform program and the nation's ability to maintain a steady inflow of foreign investment. While market conditions are currently characterized by a degree of stability, analysts continue to monitor global economic shifts, such as interest rate decisions by the US Federal Reserve, which often have a ripple effect on emerging markets like Egypt. For the time being, the market is expected to continue its current trend, with banks adjusting their rates incrementally based on local demand and supply dynamics.
