  • El-Tayeb: The funding reflects the bank\u2019s capability to finance large-scale projects that support the State\u2019s development plans<\/li>\n
  • El-Alfy: We provided finance for mega projects across different sectors, and are also studying several other major projects for future funding<\/li>\n
  • El-Dessouky: This financing marks the beginning of a strategic partnership for many future projects in Egypt and the region<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    In line with the role of the Egyptian banking sector in the country\u2019s economic development, National Bank of Kuwait \u2013 Egypt has granted EDECS International Engineering and Contracting Company credit facilities totaling $93 million.\u00a0This funding is intended to support the development of the superstructure and the infrastructure of the container terminals at Ain Sokhna Port, commissioned by the Red Sea Containers Terminals Company.<\/p>\n

    The contract was signed by Mr. Amr El-Alfy, Chief Business Officer of National Bank of Kuwait \u2013 Egypt, and Mr. Hussein El-Dessouky, Chairman and Managing Director of EDECS, in the presence of Mr. Yasser El-Tayeb, Vice Chairman, CEO, and Managing Director, along with senior management and executives from both the bank and EDECS.<\/p>\n

    Supporting the State\u2019s Plans<\/strong><\/p>\n

    On this occasion, Mr. Yasser El-Tayeb, Vice Chairman, CEO, and Managing Director of National Bank of Kuwait \u2013 Egypt, stated that the bank\u2019s participation in funding this major project reflects the Egyptian banking sector\u2019s role in national economic development, and aligns with its strategy to support the State\u2019s plans for financing large national projects. Ports are among the most important of these projects, as they stimulate foreign trade activity, reinforce Egypt\u2019s status as a key logistical hub in the Red Sea, and positively impact the national GDP and economic growth. Ports are vital to the economic and national security of any country.<\/p>\n

    Mr. El-Tayeb emphasized that the bank\u2019s successful arrangement of such a significant facility reflects its readiness and capability to finance large-scale projects that support the State\u2019s development plans, drive production, create jobs, and contribute to achieving Egypt\u2019s Vision 2030.<\/p>\n

    Clear Strategy<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Mr. Amr El-Alfy, Chief Business Officer of National Bank of Kuwait \u2013 Egypt, noted that NBK \u2013 Egypt has pursued a clear strategy for several years to support and finance major projects, infrastructure, and sustainable development that assist the State\u2019s future plans for progress and prosperity for all Egyptians. Providing this financing to EDECS exemplifies this strategy, as the project will significantly increase Ain Sokhna Port\u2019s capacity by 1.6 million TEUs annually, positioning it as a leading seaport in Egypt.<\/p>\n

    Mr. El-Alfy further noted that this substantial financing confirms the bank\u2019s confidence in the project\u2019s feasibility and the executing company, which is one of the leading contracting firms in Egypt. This is not the first large-scale project financed by the bank; previous projects include expansions at Damietta Port, the multi-purpose terminal “Tahya Misr” at Alexandria Port, Abu Qir Port, and the Max Port breakwaters, along with other infrastructure projects in electricity, energy, and roads. The bank is also studying several other major projects for future funding.<\/p>\n

    Strategic Partnership<\/strong><\/p>\n

    On his part, Mr. Hussein El-Dessouky, Chairman and Managing Director of EDECS, stated that the strategic partnership between EDECS and the National Bank of Kuwait \u2013 Egypt for the Sokhna Port container terminals project is not just a financing operation but a testament to the solid trust in the Company\u2019s technical and financial capabilities. This financing marks the beginning of a strategic partnership that will continue for many future projects in Egypt and the region.<\/p>\n

    Mr. El-Dessouky, added that this ambitious project aligns with the Egyptian Ministry of Transport\u2019s vision to transform Egypt into a global trade hub, reinforcing its status as a regional economic power. The project is more than just constructing a new port; it is a gateway to a more prosperous and interconnected future, in line with Egypt\u2019s vision.<\/p>\n

    \u201cEDECS, with over three decades of experience in marine construction and infrastructure projects, is committed to delivering the highest standards of quality, safety, and technology, ensuring that this terminal sets a benchmark for efficiency and sustainability. This project will be a milestone in the economic development of Egypt and the Middle East, building a brighter future for future generations,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n
