CFI’s leading position in MENA is very strategic for us and the acquisition of El Mahrousa in Egypt comes about to solidify our position. The Egyptian market is a key market in the region and we saw we have to be there physically through a locally regulated company.

According to the official announcement, the Group plans to complete all preparations and launch CFI Egypt by the beginning of 2023.
