Governor of the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE), Tarek Amer said the country will print new polymer LE 10 ($0.63) and LE 20 (1.27) banknotes as planned earlier starting next year.

In remarks to media, Amer said the new currency is made of a better material so they can endure frequent use, adding that the new notes will be issued after the government moves its headquarters to the New Administrative Capital east of Cairo.
