BMI mentions that inflation could put a damper on things, especially in both residential and non-residential construction. With prices going up, it might make it harder for people to afford new homes or for businesses to invest in new buildings. Plus, high-interest rates might mean it's tougher for folks to get the money they need to start construction projects.
Fitch Solutions sees potential in the government's plans to privatize some parts of the infrastructure sector. This could bring in more private companies to help build and maintain things like roads, bridges, and utilities. It's a way to spread out the responsibility and hopefully get more projects done efficiently.
So, while there are challenges ahead, there's also a lot of opportunity. With the right planning and strategies in place, Egypt's construction sector could continue to thrive in the coming years.
