Regulations for Egypt sukuk law to take 3 months-minister

CAIRO, Feb 27 (Reuters) - Egypt can gain around $10 billion in funds annually from its sukuk Islamic bond market but it will at least three months to push through the necessary regulations, Finance Minister Al-Mursi Al-Sayed Hegazy said on Wednesday. Egypt has only three months of cover for imports left in foreign currency reserves and in December postponed a deal with the IMF for more funds. (Writing by Tom Perry; editing by Patrick Graham)
