But it’s not the only prediction. Indeed the World Bank predicted that the inflation rate will reach 14 % in 2019 and will decline to 12 % in 2020.\nFor the Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics (CAPMAS), the annual consumer price inflation slipped to 13.1 % in March 2018, compared to 32.5 % in the same month of 2017.\u00a0\nThe World Bank added that with the momentum of reforms in the Egyptian economy, economic activity is expected to improve and distortions will be greatly reduced, adding that flexibility of private consumption and private investment will be the incentive of growth, in addition to a gradual improvement in exports, “especially from the tourism and gas sectors”. Indeed the country bet a lot on Zohr gas field and will plan to invest “ $ 25 billion in 16 gas and oil projects in the Mediterranean “ according to Egyptian oil minister Tarek El Molla.\nEgypt had embarked on a bold economic reform program that included the introduction of taxes, such as the value-added tax (VAT) and cutting energy subsidies, all with the aim of narrow the budget deficit.As an example, the country aims to raise its revenues from Tobacco taxes by $402 million in the 2018-2019 draft budget.\nThe country floated its currency in November 2016 before it clinched a $12 billion loan from the International Monetary Fund (IMF).\nDiscover out our latest videos about the economic news in Egypt :\u00a0\n\n\n\u00a0\n","author":79,"featured_media":2769,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","tags":[5754,5761,5766,5751,5756,5753,2961,5750,5759,5768,5762],"location":[5600],"class_list":["post-28127","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-business","tag-decision-makers","tag-economic-analysis","tag-economy","tag-employment","tag-entrepriseslife","tag-institutions","tag-news","tag-politics","tag-recruitment","tag-trending","location-egypt"],"short_url":"","have_related_news":null,"chapo":"The World Bank expects that the gross domestic product will record 5% in 2018 and 5.5% in 2019 in a document consulted by Reuters.","media":{"src":"https:\/\/www.ecomnewsmed.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/02\/cairo-1.jpg","srcset":"https:\/\/www.ecomnewsmed.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/02\/cairo-1.jpg 550w","sizes":"550px","alt":"La Chine va financer la construction de la nouvelle capitale administrative \u00e9gyptienne 1","width":550,"height":360,"ratio":0.67,"credit_photo":""},"media-news-header":{"src":"https:\/\/www.ecomnewsmed.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/02\/cairo-1.jpg","srcset":"https:\/\/www.ecomnewsmed.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/02\/cairo-1.jpg 1170w","sizes":"1170px","alt":"La Chine va financer la construction de la nouvelle capitale administrative \u00e9gyptienne 1","width":1170,"height":658,"ratio":0.67,"credit_photo":""},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nEgypt: The World Bank expects 5% economic growth this year -
