Arab Finance: Egypt's net international reserves (NIR) jumped to $52.830 billion at the end of March 2026, according to the Central Bank of Egypt’s (CBE) data.

This marks an increase from the recorded NIR at the end of last February, which totaled $52.745 billion.

The reserves consist of the country’s foreign-currency holdings and gold reserves, which are mostly sourced from remittances from Egyptians working abroad, Egyptian exports, and proceeds from the Suez Canal, among other sources.
