Indonesia and Egypt agreed to deepen economic ties and establish a joint investment fund between Danantara and the Future of Egypt Authority for Sustainable Development. Trade between the two countries reached $2.4 billion in 2025, with nearly $2 billion of that value coming from Indonesian exports to Egypt.
