Goldman Sachs reportedly estimates that the Egyptian pound is about 30% below fair value, while raising its dollar exchange-rate forecasts to EGP 53 in three months and EGP 52 in six months, before EGP 50 in a year. The bank cited possible support from lower oil prices and easing regional tensions, while foreign holdings of Egyptian debt reportedly fell to about $20 billion from $30 billion at the end of September.
Higher near-term dollar forecasts imply continued pressure on the pound and potentially higher local-currency costs for imported feed and farm inputs. Lower oil prices could ease Egypt’s import bill and support the currency over time.
