Egypt’s Foreign Reserves Slightly Rise to US$18.91 Mln in August

Egypt’s foreign cash reserves have reported a slight rise of US$ 34 million to reach US$ 18.916 billion by the end of August, against US$ 18.882 billion last June.

Last July, Egypt’s Foreign Reserves recorded it highest rise as they hit US$ 18.8 billion, compared to US$ 14.9 billion last June.

In August, Egypt has witnessed political turmoil following the bloody dispersing the main camps of the deposed president Mohamed Morsi’s supporters in Rabaa Al-Adaweya and Nahda squares.

The country’s reserves were boosted amid receiving grants and aids worth US$ 12 billion from the gulf states following the ouster of President Mohamed Morsi.
