Egypt maintains its position as Africa’s leading destination for foreign direct investment, holding the number one rank for a fourth consecutive year, according to the country’s Minister of Investment and Foreign Trade, Mohamed Farid Saleh. The minister says Egypt attracts US$15.5 billion in foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows, reflecting continued international interest in Egypt’s reform programme and investment environment.
The reporting links investor confidence to Egypt’s ongoing policy efforts, including digital reforms, and to focus on strategic sectors. The sources present the figure as evidence that Egypt’s long-term economic measures are sustaining strong inflow levels and keeping the country at the top of the continent’s FDI rankings.
No other outlets or comparative regional figures are included in the provided material, so the available information centers on Egypt’s continued ranking and the stated inflow amount and rationale cited by the minister.
