Introduction
Egypt has always played a vital role in the shaping of the
region, and trades freely with both neighboring countries, and the
rest of the world. Now, as the country witnesses prosperity and
stability, new legislation is being introduced to promote economic
development and continue to harvest investment opportunities within
the country.
Under the rule of President Abdel Fatah El Sisi, the country is
now home to many of the world's most innovative businesses, who
have benefited from the vast potential Egypt has to offer. Over the
last few years, a number of reforms have been introduced in an
effort to support the government's plan to promote said
opportunities, the most note worthy of which is the introduction of
the New Investment Law No. 72 of 2017. In 2018, this initiative
continued to expand as more legislation was promulgated to
facilitate and modernize doing business in Egypt.
