Following the immense success of the first issuance, which garnered significant traction from investors, the second issuance comes as part of our strategy to bring innovative financing solutions to various key sectors that generate sustainable value for both our clients and investors alike.”
Commenting on the issuance, Mohamed Khaled El Assal, CEO and Managing Director of Misr Italia Properties, said: “We are happy to be further building on our partnership with EFG Hermes, and to be announcing our second issuance in the EGP 2.5 billion program — a testament to Misr Italia’s financial strength and our commitment to our clients. Our first issuance, which hit the market in December 2021, broke ground as the first of its kind for a non-listed real estate developer through EFG Hermes. Capitalizing on this success, this second issuance will perfectly position us to bolster our financial position and effectively grow our portfolio as we ramp up our operations, ultimately cementing our leading position in the real estate market.”
Mohamed Hany El Assal, CEO and Managing Director of Misr Italia Properties, added, “We are proud of the success of both the first and second securitization issuances for Misr Italia Properties, which is proof of the strong investor confidence surrounding our company and its solid business model. The first issuance completed with EFG Hermes has helped us in achieving our project development objectives in 2022, having constructed over 2,500 units and delivered units with a total value of EGP 3.1 billion. We therefore take pride in the partnership we have built with such a leader, which has unlocked more sustainable financing prospects that enable us to increase accessibility to residential spaces for more customers across Egypt.”
