The Central Bank of Egypt recently gave the Housing and Development Bank the green light to set up its third investment fund with initial capital of LE 200 million.
The bank signed a contract with HC Asset Management in order to manage the new fund which is expected to be launched after EFSA’s approval, Al-Mal newspaper reported.
The bank owns two investment funds, namely Taameer and Mawared, which are managed by Prime Investments Fund Managers (PIFM), Al-Mal reported.
