Egypt reporting cycles and business-day rules

The Central Bank of Egypt operates the EGP RTGS system on bank business days. The workweek is Sunday through Thursday; weekend is Friday-Saturday under the Labour Law (Law 12 of 2003). EGX (Egyptian Exchange) trades Sunday through Thursday. The Financial Regulatory Authority (FRA) regulates non-banking financial services and listed-entity disclosures. Social Insurance Authority (NOSI) monthly contributions accompany payroll.
