Egypt\u2019s total external debt jumped to $125.3 billion by the end of the first quarter (Q1) of the current FY2020\/2021, up about $1.8 billion year-on-year, according to the Central Bank of Egypt.<\/p>\n

In its quarterly report on Egypt’s external position, CBE attributed this rise to the increase in net disbursements of loans and facilities by $0.4 billion, together with the depreciation of the US dollar exchange rate versus other currencies of external debt, which led to an increase of $1.4 billion in book value.<\/p>\n

According to the report, long-term external debt surged to $113 billion (accounting for 90.2 percent of total external debt) by end of Q1 of FY2020\/21, up by about $0.4 billion compared to end of June 2020.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the report showed that short-term debt increased by about $1.4 billion to reach about $12.3 billion \u2013 9.8 percent of total external debt.<\/p>\n

Its ratio to net international reserves edged up to 32.1 percent at end of the Q1 of FY2020\/21, up from 28.5 percent at end of June 2020, according to the report.<\/p>\n

Egypt’s debt-service ratio registered 44.7 percent in the Q1 of FY2020\/21, it said.<\/p>\n

However, external debt remains within manageable limits, and its position continues to have a favorable structure, as 90.2 percent of the debt is long-term, it added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
