Egypt's Financial Regulatory Authority has reduced by 50% the fees for reviewing public and private offerings of sustainability-related securities. The decision expands a fee reduction previously available to green bonds and aligns the framework with recent amendments to the Capital Market Law’s executive regulations. The reduction now covers sustainability and sustainability-linked bonds, social bonds, women’s empowerment bonds, climate bonds and transition bonds. These instruments may finance or refinance projects supporting environmental and social objectives, including emissions reduction, climate mitigation, pollution control, energy efficiency and gender equality.
