After the Central Bank of Egypt liberalised the exchange rate, banks and exchange offices reported significant inflows of US dollars and other foreign currencies. The dollar fell about EGP 1.7 from its peak on the day the float was announced, closing near EGP 47.8 for buying by the end of the week.
