The live USD/EGP rate is updated on this page from market sources. Both the Central Bank reference rate and commercial bank rates are available. The spread between banks is typically small.
The Central Bank issues a reference rate (daily or per session) reflecting the market average. Commercial banks add a small margin that varies between state-owned (NBE, Banque Misr) and private banks (CIB, QNB). Typically under 0.2 EGP.
The USD rate is affected by foreign-exchange market supply and demand, Central Bank foreign-currency reserves, monetary policy decisions, and the global Dollar Index (DXY). All these factors interact daily.
DXY measures the USD strength against a basket of 6 major currencies (EUR, JPY, GBP, CAD, SEK, CHF). A rising DXY means global dollar strength — a key factor influencing local rates.
