President Abdel Fattah El Sisi issued Wednesday a Republican decree appointing Tarek Amer as presidential adviser.

President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi accepted on Wednesday 17/8/2022 the resignation submitted by the Governor of the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) Tarek Amer and appointed him as a presidential adviser, according to a statement by the presidency.

“I would like to thank President El-Sisi for supporting me throughout my term as the governor of the CBE. I resigned to leave room for new blood to take responsibility and push forward Egypt’s successful development process under the leadership of the president,” Amer noted in his resignation note.

Amer has chaired the CBE since November 2015, succeeding Hisham Ramez who also voluntarily left his position.
