Minister of Investment Ashraf Salman has said Egypt needs 415 billion pounds in local and foreign investments to achieve a development rate of 3.8 pct in the current financial year.
The government has only 58 billion pounds of the needed sum for investments in the financial year and the remaining money is expected in private sector and foreign investments.

He added that Fitch upgraded Egypt's credit rating to B.
The economic conference due in Sharm El Sheikh in March will also serve in Egypt's economic reform.
