Egyptian pound at 49.75/49.85 against dollar in early trade – 22 June 2026

The Egyptian pound was broadly stable against the US dollar early Sunday, extending a period of relative calm in the foreign-exchange market amid steady hard-currency liquidity and improved investor sentiment.

The dollar traded at an average of 49.75 Egyptian pounds for buying and 49.85 pounds for selling across five major banks as of 10:37 local time (0737 GMT), according to data compiled by Amwal Al Ghad English.

The Egyptian currency has traded within a relatively narrow range against the greenback in recent weeks, supported by improved foreign-currency inflows and easing pressures in the domestic foreign-exchange market.
