Translation of Law No. 10 of 2009
The Supervision on Non-Banking Financial Markets and Instruments Law No. 10 of 2009 provides the main legal framework governing non-banking financial activities in Egypt. To support international understanding of this framework, the Translation of the Supervision on Non-Banking Financial Markets and Instruments and the English version of the Supervision on Non-Banking Financial Markets and Instruments play an essential role in explaining regulatory requirements to foreign investors and legal professionals.
This law established the Egyptian Financial Supervisory Authority (EFSA) as the single regulator responsible for supervising capital markets, insurance, leasing, factoring, securitization, and real estate finance. The English version of the Supervision on Non-Banking Financial Markets and Instruments clearly outlines EFSA’s powers to license, inspect, and monitor all entities operating in these sectors.
The law also replaced several former supervisory bodies and unified their authorities under EFSA. In doing so, it interacts directly with earlier legislation, including real estate finance regulations commonly accessed through the Translation of Law No. 148 of 2001, which remains an important reference point for property financing and mortgage activities.
Market protection and transparency are core objectives of the law. Through enforcement powers and compliance mechanisms described in the Translation of the Supervision on Non-Banking Financial Markets and Instruments, the Authority is empowered to safeguard investors, reduce market manipulation, and promote fair competition across non-banking financial services.
For businesses and compliance teams, consulting both the English version of the Supervision on Non-Banking Financial Markets and Instruments and the Translation of Law No. 148 of 2001 provides a more complete view of Egypt’s financial regulatory environment. Together, these legal translations help organizations understand licensing obligations, operational standards, and regulatory oversight in Egypt’s non-banking financial markets.
