Egypt's inflation has been characterized by volatility, with rates peaking at 23.5% in 2017 due to currency devaluation and subsidy reforms. Inflation moderated to 5.7% by 2020, benefiting from improved economic policies and stabilization measures. However, global price shocks and local currency pressures led to a sharp increase to 24.4% in 2023.
Looking ahead, inflation is expected to rise further to 32.5% in 2024 before declining to 6.1% by 2029. This trajectory highlights Egypt's ongoing economic challenges and the potential for recovery as fiscal policies are adjusted to mitigate external and domestic shocks.
