The meeting addressed future plans to continue restoring the ecological balance of Lake Qarun and to develop it on scientific foundations, through activating joint cooperation between the Authority, Fayoum Governorate, and the National Institute of Oceanography and Fisheries, in line with existing cooperation protocols, ensuring integration between research and implementation efforts.

Discussions included measures to reduce pollution from various drains flowing into the lake, tackling the isopod parasite, removing encroachments on the lake’s shores, and setting a comprehensive vision for sustainable development and exploitation of the lake to maximize fish production while preserving natural resources.

Major General Farhat emphasized that the successful introduction of species such as shrimp and parent sole fish represents a genuine starting point for restoring ecological balance. He stressed that the Authority is handling Lake Qarun with a precise scientific approach that respects its unique nature as a closed lake, ensuring sustainable development without negatively impacting the ecosystem.

He noted that the Authority, in coordination with the National Institute and Fayoum Governorate, is working according to scientific studies and periodic analyses to be conducted in the coming period, to determine the most suitable species for release into the lake, thereby achieving the highest success rates for sustainable development.

Farhat stated that the current phase requires utmost precision and caution to preserve the progress achieved, affirming that the Authority operates under a comprehensive scientific vision and well-studied plans that consider environmental, economic, and social dimensions, particularly supporting fishermen and improving their livelihoods. He stressed that developing Lake Qarun is a shared national responsibility requiring collective efforts to achieve sustainable results.

Governor Ghoneim stressed that the state attaches great importance to developing Lake Qarun as a vital natural resource, emphasizing the need to work according to clear scientific plans with defined timelines and full coordination among all concerned entities, to preserve achievements and continue development, positively impacting the local economy and creating job opportunities for the governorate’s residents.

Dr. Islam Azzam:

We are keen to listen to the pulse of the market and work to remove obstacles facing non-banking financial activities.

We are working to expand the umbrella of non-banking finance to allow more citizens to benefit.

In line with the Financial Regulatory Authority’s commitment to establishing effective and direct communication channels with all market participants, and reinforcing its approach of listening and engaging with diverse perspectives, Dr. Islam Azzam, Chairman of the Authority, continued his series of meetings with representatives of non-banking financial activities. He held a meeting with representatives of the Mortgage Finance Union and companies operating in the sector, attended by senior FRA officials.

During the meeting, the Chairman confirmed that this participatory approach will continue in the coming phase, through opening broad dialogue channels with various market stakeholders, ensuring the development of non-banking financial activities and expanding financial inclusion.

Dr. Azzam noted that developing mortgage finance activity can only be achieved through a precise understanding of its real-world challenges and direct listening to the market’s pulse and stakeholders’ views and proposals. He emphasized that the Authority is working to translate these insights into executive measures that help increase the sector’s contribution to GDP and improve the efficiency of professionals working in it.

Companies presented several proposals to amend certain regulatory rules governing the activity, aimed at supporting market efficiency and enhancing growth capacity in the coming period. Key issues included operational and financing challenges facing mortgage finance companies, and ways to boost liquidity through expanding the use of financing tools, particularly securitization, to strengthen integration between mortgage finance and other non-banking financial activities, thereby providing comprehensive financing solutions to the market.

The meeting also addressed mechanisms to stimulate demand for mortgage finance and ways to develop more flexible financing products suitable for different income segments, contributing to expanding the beneficiary base and enhancing financial, investment, and insurance inclusion. According to the latest FRA statistics, the value of financing granted to mortgage finance companies reached about EGP 2.9 billion (distributed between individual clients and purchased portfolios) by the end of January 2026, with portfolios transferred from real estate developers accounting for about 45% of total financing granted.

Company representatives noted that current regulations have helped establish stability and protect clients’ rights, but the rapid developments in the real estate market require greater flexibility, particularly regarding financing ratios, debt burden limits, and repayment periods, to expand the beneficiary base without undermining regulatory safeguards.

They stressed that the proposed amendments aim to strike a balance between maintaining financial stability and stimulating activity, by allowing more room to develop financing products and enhance competitiveness, thereby increasing access to finance, especially for middle-income segments.

Representatives also expressed interest in FRA’s periodic reports and statistics, particularly those analyzing age groups, geographic regions, and income levels most inclined toward mortgage finance, considering them an important tool to support decision-making and tailor financing products to market needs.

FRA officials confirmed that in the coming period, work will be undertaken to review regulations governing mortgage finance activity, alongside issuing circulars and periodic letters on financing mechanisms for both individuals and corporates.

They also explained that training programs will be prepared and implemented for employees of mortgage finance companies on how to use new electronic systems and submit company data regularly, in parallel with organizing the activity of real estate valuation experts through an integrated electronic system, contributing to developing property pricing mechanisms according to geographic areas.

In this context, emphasis was placed on companies’ compliance with FRA Board Resolution No. 45 of 2026 regarding licensing rules and continuity of key functions in non-banking financial companies, as well as adherence to anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing standards, in line with the National Risk Assessment results.

At the conclusion of the meeting, FRA reaffirmed its readiness to provide awareness and technical support through workshops and training programs aimed at raising sector employees’ efficiency, preparing cadres capable of business development, and training company representatives on using the electronic platform for activities.

The meeting came as part of a series of regular engagements aimed at deepening dialogue with various non-banking financial activities, based on FRA’s conviction that market development begins with understanding real-world challenges and working jointly with stakeholders to reach practical solutions that support efficiency and strengthen the sector’s role in supporting the national economy.

The Ministry of Investment and Foreign Trade has issued a decision to impose final safeguard measures on imports of cold-rolled, galvanized, and color-coated steel sheets for a period of three years, with graduated tariffs reaching up to 14.5%.

The decision came after extensive investigations carried out by the Trade Remedies Sector, which revealed a “large and sudden” increase in imports during the past period. This surge caused severe damage to the local industry, including declining sales, reduced market share, lower operating rates, and a shift for some companies from profitability to losses.

The crisis began in October 2025, when several local companies—led by Kama and Galvameetal—filed an official complaint, asserting that the market was being flooded with rising imports of sheet metal. This prompted the authorities to launch a formal investigation, which included collecting data from manufacturers and importers, conducting field visits, and holding hearings with the concerned parties.

The measures also involved notifying the World Trade Organization and opening consultations with several countries, in line with international rules governing safeguard measures.

The investigation concluded that there was a direct causal link between the rise in imports and the harm suffered by the local industry. Intense price competition from imported products reduced the ability of domestic factories to market and produce efficiently.

The companies that filed the complaint represent a significant share of local production, which strengthened their legal position in requesting protective measures.

Under the decision, safeguard tariffs will be applied progressively on imports, varying by product type and time period, ranging between 12.5% and 14.5%. A minimum dollar value per ton has also been set to ensure a degree of protection without disrupting market balance.

The decision exempts certain products with special characteristics or specific industrial uses, such as some types of treated sheet metal or those coated with advanced protective layers.
