Amidst political uncertainty, Egypt's economic and social status tells a complex story

The political crisis is situated in a context of weak global demand that has negatively affected Egypt’s exports and Suez Canal revenues. "The Economic Situation in Egypt in the Context of Political instability and a Risky Transition ", the brief on Egypt explores its public finances, balance of services and social development. It notes that unemployment appears critical in Egypt due to the political and economic uncertainties which have led to a reduction in income from tourism and a lack of visibility among investors, who have either postponed their projects or withdrawn their capital, depriving people of thousands of jobs.
