Story details
The World Bank’s October 2026 regional economic update, announced on October 6, includes a country table for Egypt. Its indicators are estimates and projections, not newly observed outcomes. This article reports the country row while retaining the source’s labels and units.
Egypt’s real GDP per-capita growth is listed at 3.1% for 2025, 3.9% for 2026 and 2.5% forecast for 2027. These rates measure change in output per person, not total real GDP growth. The table marks the 2026 values as estimates. Egypt’s fiscal year runs from July 1 to June 30, so these figures refer to fiscal years rather than calendar years.
Egypt inflation is shown at 20.9% in 2025 and 13.3% in 2026 and 14.2% in 2027. The appendix identifies annual consumer-price inflation but does not say whether the rate is an annual average or year-end measure. It should not be read as a monthly CPI observation or compared on an assumed identical basis.
For 2026, Egypt’s 3.9% real GDP per-capita growth estimate alongside 13.3% inflation gives two separate annual indicators, not a measure of what caused prices or output to move. The table does not decompose export volumes, energy or food costs, or shipping charges, and its CPI basis is not specified.
