The Egyptian pound slipped marginally against the US dollar in early trading on Monday, according to quotes from major local banks.
As of 10:58 p.m. local time (08:58 GMT), the dollar was quoted at:
| Bank | Buy (EGP/USD) | Sell (EGP/USD) |
| National Bank of Egypt (NBE) | 47.33 | 47.43 |
| Banque Misr | 47.4 | 47.5 |
| Commercial International Bank (CIB) | 47.35 | 47.45 |
| QNB Alahli | 47.3000 | 47.4000 |
| Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB) | 47.5000 | 47.6000 |
The pound has largely traded within a narrow range in recent weeks, reflecting relative stability in the foreign exchange market after bouts of volatility earlier this year driven by hard currency shortages and elevated inflationary pressures.
