Egypt Non Oil Private Sector PMI
Egypt's Non-Oil Private Sector PMI fell by 0.8% to 48.8 in September 2025, down from 49.2 in August 2025. This marks the lowest reading in three months. The contraction is attributed to a sharp decrease in new orders, the fastest in five months, due to weak economic conditions. Rising wage pressures from increased living costs and higher minimum wages also impacted business activity. Export sales saw their steepest decline in three years, worsening the overall business activity downturn. Egypt's record low Non-Oil Private Sector PMI was 45.4 in November 2022 and record high was 50.7 in January 2025.
