Egypt Post to Launch “Citizen Bonds” for Individuals with Fixed Monthly Returns

Saturday 21 February 2026 10:08

Egypt Post is set to issue government bonds exclusively for individuals for the first time under the name “Citizen Bonds”, starting tomorrow. The initiative aims to provide a new savings instrument with a fixed and periodic return, while encouraging citizens to invest directly in government debt instruments.

The subscription is open to individuals only through post office branches across the country.

Investment period: 18 months

Annual fixed return: 17.75%, paid monthly

Face value per bond: EGP 1,000

Minimum subscription: EGP 10,000

Interest (coupon) payments will be disbursed on the 15th of each month, ensuring a regular monthly income throughout the investment period. This makes the bond suitable for those seeking stable cash flows.

“Citizen Bonds” represent a low-risk savings option, offering individuals a fixed government-backed return. The subscription process is simplified through Egypt Post’s nationwide network.

Subscriptions will be open from tomorrow until March 8, with post offices prepared to facilitate citizens’ applications across all governorates.
