The IDSC, which operates under the cabinet’s supervision, provides research, data analysis, and decision-making support on economic, social, and political issues.

The ministry aims to use the IDSC’s research services, expertise, and technological capabilities to study fiscal policies, support decision-making processes, improve tax and customs policies, foster real estate services, and enhance digital services for citizens and businesses. 

Egypt has been bolstering its efforts to improve fiscal policies to support economic growth and stability as a key part of the country’s Extended Fund Facility (EFF) programme with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

The IMF-supported programme includes monetary and fiscal policy tightening, which focuses on reducing inflation to support low and middle-income families, create jobs, and improve the business and investment environment.
