Abstract

The investment climate in Egypt: The conditions for a sustainable reform -- institutions or relations? Hèla Yousfi The so-called developing countries are exhorted to reform their "investment climate". They will, according to sponsors, find a place in the global economy thanks to bold reforms based on good institutional practices that have been well proven elsewhere. As experience shows however, importing "good" institutions does not suffice for them to mechanically produce their blessings. A case study in Egypt, based on an ethnographic method, shows that improving the investment climate -- in particular, the confidence between private investors and public authorities -- is, indeed, a matter of institutions; but those who implement such measures must believe in them and deem them legitimate enough so that they not try to circumvent them
