The United Arab Emirates has announced a $35 billion investment in Egypt, triggering the country to float its currency and seek a larger IMF bailout. The implications of this unprecedented investment raise questions about politics in the Middle East and the flow of petrodollars in the global financial system. The investment also raises concerns about the role of the army in the Egyptian economy and the prospects for reform. This move could have significant implications for the region's investment landscape.
