In an annual review published on 12 October, the Central Bank of Egypt said net inflows in the capital and financial account reached US$23.2 billion, while the current account recorded a US$22.5 billion deficit. The bank presented these as the main components of the fiscal year's external transactions. The current-account deficit and financial-account inflows are separate measures; the overall surplus should not be read as the result of either item alone. ## Data ### Egypt balance of payments, FY2025/26 Central bank fiscal-year totals; the current-account deficit is shown separately.
