On Thursday, the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) issued treasury bills worth EGP 90 billion for maturities of 182 and 364 days, in coordination with the Ministry of Finance, to finance the state's budget deficit.
Treasury bills are short-term government debt instruments issued for periods ranging from three months to one year. They are considered short-term securities that enable the government to finance its cash needs.
According to the CBE's website, the value of the first offering is approximately EGP 40 billion for a 182-day term, while the second offering is EGP 50 billion for a 364-day term.
The Ministry of Finance authorizes the CBE to manage private offerings of treasury bills and bonds in Egyptian pounds throughout the fiscal year, with the proceeds to be spent on the general budget for the current fiscal year.
In a related development, the Monetary Policy Committee of the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) decided, during its meeting on Thursday, October 2, 2025, to reduce interest rates. The overnight deposit and lending rates, as well as the Central Bank's main operation rate, were reduced by 100 basis points, to 21.00%, 22.00%, and 21.50%, respectively. The credit and discount rates were also reduced by 200 basis points, to 21.50%.
This measure comes as part of the Central Bank's efforts to support liquidity in the banking sector and stimulate investment and spending, while taking into account financing the needs of the state's general budget.
