I got in last night from Cairo to Vienna, after a successful Egypt Audit program, in cooperation with the Fraser Institute and the IDSC of Egypt. The Egypt Audit applied the methods of the Economic Freedom of the World reports to one country — Egypt — and made recommendations for reforms, which were then discussed by the participants. The papers are being made available to Egyptian cabinet ministers and advisers. There was some very good media coverage and some spirited discussions about how to reduce barriers to trade, reduce the regulatory burdens on entrepreneurs, reform monetary and financial policies, and more.
