Banque Misr and National Bank of Egypt have collected revenues of 200 billion Egyptian pounds from selling new 15 percent annual yield saving certificates since being launched at the end March.
Mohamed el Atrebi, the Board Chairman of Banque Misr, told MENA that the bank sold certificates worth 55 billion pounds throughout the past three months.
