(MENAFN) The Egyptian Finance Ministry expects gross domestic product (GDP) to grow steadily to hit 6 percent in the financial years 2017/2018 as private sector investment grows to 15 percent of GDP, Saudi Gazette reported.
Finance Ministry shows that “These are realistic and achievable targets which will be supported by the government of Egypt’s commitment to sound macroeconomic policies, in particular a concerted drive to achieve fiscal sustainability.”
The country’s real GDP during the financial year of 2013/2014 reached 2.2 percent, almost the same as in the preceding fiscal year.
