I have been a recipient of the Egypt Legal Update for some time now. I find the updates very informative and appreciate the simple way they are written. Putting legal issues and frameworks into context and perspective gives us a more granular picture of issues at hand. Accordingly Egypt Legal Update is widely read by CIB management and staff.
