Best Answer

Egypt is a net IMPORTER of oil. While it is true that Egypt is an oil producing country, it's native oil production has diminished and has charged it's oil industry to forage outside it's borders for crude. Egypt has vast resources of natural gas and has supplemented or replaced much of it's flagging oil income with that product. However, the energy needs of Egypt, growing annually along with every other industrialized nation, requires oil in such quantities that it's own supply is supplemented by importing oil from abroad.

Difference between a primary banker's acceptance and a secondary banker's acceptance?

An importer plans to purchase goods from an exporter. The exporter will not grant credit, so the importer turns to its bank. They execute an acceptance agreement, under which the bank will accept drafts from the importer. In this manner, the bank extends credit to the importer, who agrees to pay the bank the face value of all drafts prior to their maturity. The importer draws a time draft, listing itself as the payee. The bank accepts the draft and discounts it-paying the importer the discounted value of the draft. The importer uses the proceeds to pay the exporter. The bank can then hold the bankers acceptance in its own portfolio or it can sell it at discounted value in the money market. In an alternative arrangement, the exporter may agree to accept a letter of credit from the importer's bank. This specifies that the bank will accept time drafts from the exporter if the exporter presents suitable documentation that the goods were delivered. Under this arrangement, the exporter is the drawer and payee of the draft. Typically, the bank will not work directly with the exporter but with the exporter's correspondent bank. The exporter may realize proceeds from the bankers acceptance in several ways. The bank may discount it for the exporter; the exporter may hold the acceptance to maturity; or it may sell the acceptance to another party
