Egypt's net international reserves reached an all-time high of $57.35 billion by the end of September 2026, driven by increased foreign currency inflows. The banking sector's net foreign assets also hit a record high of $31.2 billion. This improvement comes despite a widening current account deficit due to a rise in the merchandise trade deficit and investment income deficit. Remittances from Egyptians abroad, tourism revenues, and Suez Canal receipts helped limit the deficit.
