The Egyptian Ministry of Finance plans, prepares and manages the Government of Egypt's budget and public debt. This is carried out by preparing legislation, planning revenues and expenditures, managing and supervising the budgetary spending process and preparing a framework for economic policy and development. We analyze and design tax policies, customs duties and tariff policies, and other types of public income. We also analyze and guide the public expenditure system. We develop policies on domestic and international finance. We also monitor macroeconomic, macro-fiscal and financial developments in order to provide policy advice on a wide range of economic issues.
