Our story and our history

The Cairo Center for Economic and Strategic Studies was launched

Our journey began with the aim of providing high-quality economic and strategic studies that help in taking more accurate and effective decisions. Through research, analysis and specialised expertise, we continue to support institutions and projects with insights built on data and a deep knowledge of economic and developmental variables

.1. Establishment and the transformation into a house of expertise — the beginning as a consultancy firm:

The idea of the center emerged from the working reality of its founder, Dr. Abdel Moneim El-Sayed, in the field of financial, tax and accounting consultancy. Establishment and objective: the center was inaugurated in Cairo to be an independent entity specialising in the preparation of economic feasibility studies, the financial analysis of companies' financial statements, and the provision of training and accounting consultancy.

2. Expansion towards strategic and policy analysis — linking economics and politics:

The center did not confine itself to providing commercial and financial services to companies, but expanded to become a "think tank" that analyses the macroeconomic policies of the Egyptian state. International and local accreditation: the center draws on the expertise of its founder, who is registered with the Central Bank of Egypt and the Financial Regulatory Authority, alongside his membership of international accounting and consultancy networks (such as KRESTON INTERNATIONAL).

3. Media prominence and sovereign participation (the current stage) — coverage of national projects:

The center's name has historically been associated with presenting analyses supported by figures for Egyptian national projects such as (the New Delta project, the general budget, and food security issues). Presence in decision-making: the center participates regularly in presenting working papers and recommendations to economic councils and investment and business associations in Egypt.
