The Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) has called on the banking sector to take part in the presidential initiative Decent Life. The Decent Life initiative – the National Project for the Development of the Egyptian Countryside – is a comprehensive and integrated initiative, launched by President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi, in 2019. The initiative aims to improve the living conditions and daily life of Egyptian citizens, within a framework of integration and unity of efforts among the state institutions, private sector entities, civil society, and development partners in Egypt. The initiative also aims to provide a holistic package of services, covering various aspects of health, social and living conditions. It is a huge shared responsibility among these different parties to provide a decent life to Egyptian citizens, especially vulnerable groups.
