Maintaining our Triple Crown accreditation came to confirm the school’s academic leadership in Egypt, the Arab region, Africa and beyond. We are proud to continue to be the only triple-crown accredited business school in the Middle East and North Africa region, and among less than 1 percent of business schools worldwide to receive the AACSB, EQUIS and AMBA accreditations. The Triple Crown, together with the ACCA accreditation obtained by our Department of Accounting, and the ACCET accreditation received by our Executive Education unit, represent a clear vote of confidence in the school’s strategy, governance and processes, and a recognition of the world-class quality of our programs, the high caliber of our research, and the depth and impact of our engagement at the local, regional and international level. We have also successfully joined CEMS to become the first business school in the Middle East and Africa to join the prestigious Global Alliance in Management Education. Jointly offering the top-ranked CEMS master’s in Management will provide our students with another opportunity to pursue a world-class academic program that is in line with the school’s liberal-arts, experiential-learning and “glocalized” approach to business education.

    Index Governance LIST OF APPROVED REGULATED STOCK EXCHANGES The following announcement applies to all equity indices calculated and owned by Solactive AG (“Solactive”). With respect to the term “regulated stock exchange” as widely used throughout the guidelines of our Indices, Solactive has decided to apply following definition: A Regulated Stock Exchange must – to be approved by Solactive for the purpose calculation of its indices - fulfil a set of criteria to enable foreign investors to trade listed shares without undue restrictions. Solactive will regularly review and update a list of eligible Regulated Stock Exchanges which at least 1) are Regulated Markets comparable to the definition in Art. 4(1) 21 of Directive 2014/65/EU, except Title III thereof; and 2) provide for an investor registration procedure, if any, not unduly restricting foreign investors. Other factors taken into account are the limits on foreign ownership, if any, imposed by the jurisdiction in which the Regulated Stock Exchange is located and other factors related to market accessibility and investability. Using above definition, Solactive has evaluated the global stock exchanges and decided to include the following in its List of Approved Regulated Stock Exchanges. This List will henceforth be used for calculating all of Solactive’s equity indices and will be reviewed and updated, if necessary, at least annually.

The analysis and recommendations contained in each brief are largely drawn from field research conducted by the authors, and from interviews with each polity’s political and military leaders, religious and secular actors, and academic community, among others.
