Egypt's stock exchange, closed since 27 January because of the protests that ousted President Hosni Mubarak, has decided to reopen on Tuesday, the cabinet said in a statement.
"The prime minister has presented proposed measures through the Egyptian Financial Supervisory Authority and the Egyptian Exchange in preparation for a resumption of bourse trading, and this is in light of the bourse's decision to resume trading on Tuesday, 1 March, 2011," the statement said on Sunday.
