The Egypt Financial Regulatory Authority has issued the country’s first standards for valuing machinery, equipment and infrastructure, creating a unified framework for assessing productive and capital assets. The standards complement recently issued real estate valuation standards and broaden the authority’s standardized valuation framework following its earlier standards for intangible assets. They are intended to support financial leasing, asset-backed financing, project finance, restructurings, acquisitions and asset revaluations. Aligned with the International Valuation Standards in effect since 2025 and Egypt’s domestic regulatory framework, the standards provide for market, income and cost approaches. Valuers must consider factors including an asset’s technical specifications, productive capacity, remaining life and condition, as well as maintenance, environmental and economic considerations. Supporting guidance sets out equipment inspection, documentation and reporting steps. The resolution will take effect on the day after its publication, which is expected in the coming days.
