The cabinet reshuffle implemented by Egyptian President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi last week aims to reinvigorate Egypt’s floundering economy, explains Dr. Amr Adly of the Carnegie Middle East Center. According to Adly, the individuals appointed by Sisi are “high-profile business people” that maintain “dense connections with business circles in Egypt as well as throughout the Arab world.” These changes may lead to an increase in the privatization of state owned enterprises in Egypt and consequently, new opportunities for U.S. businesses in the country.
