(MENAFN) A private UAE real estate investment fund company is set to lead the development of Egypt’s new USD45 billion capital projects, in which a tower similar to the Eiffel Tower in Paris is included, Arabian Business reported.

The Capital Cairo project will be supervised by the Egyptian Ministry of Housing, and will be developed by Capital City Partners, a private fund of global investors, including the UAE.
