Military-owned companies in Egypt are a few steps away from rolling out a plan to attract private sector investments and expand their property base. Sovereign Wealth Fund CEO Ayman Soliman said that various private local and international investors made bids to invest in Egyptian companies owned by the military.
During a virtual press conference June 8, Soliman told the state-run Al-Ahram newspaper that the fund is currently assessing a number of these companies before opening them up to investors. Soliman did not give any details on the companies nor the sectors in which they operate, and did not reveal which investors made bids.
