Investments in Egypt’s New Capital Hit EGP 50 Billion in 2025

Investments in the New Capital reached around EGP 50 billion in 2025, maintaining last year’s pace, the Administrative Capital for Urban Development (ACUD) announced at the Think Commercial Roundtable. ACUD reports that the total value of assets in the city now stands at EGP 360 billion, with profits this year amounting to EGP 35 billion, and nearly EGP 9 billion in taxes paid to the state. It also highlights that top government bodies - including the House of Representatives, Senate, and Central Bank of Egypt - are expected to relocate to the city after elections, cementing its status as an administrative and economic nerve centre. ACUD is overseeing development over a 40,000-feddan area, encompassing residential and commercial zones and key facilities such as a 1.5 million cubic metre water treatment plant. Plans are underway to offer 30% of ACUD land for investment, particularly in the New Financial District, with projected returns of EGP 15 billion to EGP 20 billion. The city’s next development phase is set to launch early next year, supported by partnerships covering 300 to 500 feddans each. ACUD received around 10 investment proposals from both Egyptian and Arab developers.
