The recent rise represents a $390 million increase since the end of April, slightly higher than the $386 million rise recorded the previous month.
These recent increases indicate a steady and consistent upward trend in Egypt’s foreign reserves over recent months.
Reserves were recorded at $48.143 billion in April and $47.393 billion in February 2025.
This growth continues a positive trend for the country’s net foreign reserves (NIRs), averaging around $25,003 billion since 1992.
The reserves reached an all-time high of $48,526 billion in May 2025. In contrast, Egypt’s lowest recorded reserves stood at just over $10,088 billion in June 1992.
These figures reflect Egypt’s improved external financial position. They also indicate Egypt’s stability and increasing ability to support its currency, manage external debt, and meet import needs.
