Egyptian Real Estate Investors Hedge Against Inflation

By

The Talaat Moustafa Group Holding was the top Egyptian investor of real estate shares as demand increased because of the anticipated inflation. As the largest publicly traded public developer experienced the largest gain in six months, it has extended the share value rally of the company to 11%.

The rally indicates the share prices are driven by inflation as well as the genuine demand for real estate in Egypt.

Other property firms such as Palm Hills Developments SAE is now expecting its highest close in over a month's time. Overall, the benchmark EGX 30 Index had advanced by 1.5% to 5,228 basis points.

Talaat Moustafa increased by 5.4% to 4.1 Egyptian pounds per share. As inflation levelled in March of 2013, EFG-Hermes Holding SAE and CI Capital forecasted prices would further climb amidst the current devaluation instituted on the Egyptian poiund. This year alone, the pound decreased by 7% as the foreign currency reserves of the country declined.
