Egypt’s Minister of Trade and Industry Ahmed Samir said that Egypt and India could collaborate in the construction sector, which has been registering steady growth in the Northern African country.
Samir made these remarks at the 21st annual forum of the Confederation of Real Estate Developers’ Associations of India (CREDAI), which took place in Sharm El-Sheikh. The meeting was attended by many Indian business leaders. He added that the forum was an opportunity to showcase investment opportunities and discuss policies that promote sustainable development and attract more investments. Samir stated that the real estate sector in Egypt accounts for more than 20% of the GDP, and plays a vital role in driving growth, investment, and job creation. He also said that the sector provides housing units for citizens and develops infrastructure projects.
He mentioned that Indian investments in Egypt reached $3.2bn in 52 projects in fields such as food industries, chemicals, and tourism. Samir explained that Egypt has implemented many policies to attract more foreign direct investments in the real estate sector, such as establishing investment zones, issuing regulations and rules, and setting up specialized courts to speed up the resolution of disputes. He said that these measures have increased foreign direct investments in the real estate sector and infrastructure projects.
