IFC was appointed as the strategic advisor for the government’s Asset Monetization Program, which will focus on harnessing private capital and know-how to manage state-owned assets. The programme is part of the government’s State Ownership Policy (SOP), a new framework rolled out in December 2022 aiming to empower the country’s private sector across sectors to spur economic growth.
This is the first agreement within the World Bank Group Egypt Country Partnership Framework, jointly developed with the Government of Egypt and launched in March 2023.
