OECD praises Egypt's inclusive social, economic development

Secretary-General‎ of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) José Ángel Gurría praised Egypt's efforts to achieve inclusive social and economic development through involving all stakeholders in the developmental process.

Gurría made his statements during a meeting with Egypt's Minister of Investment and International Cooperation Sahar Nasr on the sidelines of the World Bank (WB) and International Monetary Fund (IMF) annual meetings in Washington.

Gurría assured that the OECD is committed to supporting Egypt's inclusive economic reforms under the leadership of President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi, which allow for more participation of the private sector by injecting more investment in the domestic market.

Nasr and Gurría discussed introducing technical support by the OECD to Egypt's investment ministry in Egypt's foreign direct investment (FDI) inventory.
