The Egyptian Exchange (EGX) approved the registration of three companies in its membership registry. Thus, allowing them to meet the exchange’s membership requirements for securities firms before engaging in trading mechanisms.

Bokra, Beltone Asset Management, and EFG Hermes for Financial Portfolio and Investment Funds Management received approval to be registered as EGX members before conducting trading activities.

Why You Should Care

The approvals add three investment and asset management firms to the EGX’s membership registry. The move is relevant because companies operating in securities activities must be registered with the exchange before they can carry out any of the EGX’s trading mechanisms.

The Details

The three companies approved for registration are Bokra for Securities Portfolio Formation and Management and Investment Funds, Beltone Asset Management, and Hermes for Financial Portfolio and Investment Funds Management.

The decision was announced by the management of the Egyptian Exchange on September 16, 2026. The membership registration is a requirement set by the EGX for entities operating in securities activities. According to the exchange, these entities must complete registration in its membership registry before conducting any activity through the exchange’s trading mechanisms.

The latest approvals therefore cover three firms operating across portfolio and investment fund management activities, bringing them into the exchange’s formal membership framework.

The Ripple

The registrations involve companies active in investment and portfolio management, making the development relevant to participants in Egypt’s capital markets. For the firms themselves, membership registration is a prerequisite for carrying out activities through the EGX’s trading mechanisms.

The three companies can now proceed under the EGX’s membership framework, subject to the applicable requirements for securities firms. Further announcements from the companies or the exchange may clarify their activities following the registrations.
