在经历了十年缓慢增长之后,埃及经济增长率于1990年代后期开始复苏,年均增幅超过了5%。但是,人们并没有用连贯的、可比的家庭数据集系统性地考查增长对贫困模式的影响。在本文中,El-Laithy,Lokshin和Banerji使用了从埃及最近两次 家计调查(1995年至1996年和1999年至2000年)中得出的丰富的单位数据集,考查了1995年至2000年间贫困和不平等的变化。他们的分析基础是,说明地区价格差异的具体家庭贫困线,以及贫困家庭的消费偏好与人口和年龄结构。结果表明,在1990年代后半期,平均家庭支出上升了,贫困率从20%降低到17%以下。但是,除了城市和农村生活水平之间的差距日益扩大之外,1990年代后期还出现了一种新的地理/地区差距。贫困集中发生在教育水平较低的人群中(特别是那些从事农业和建筑业的人),以及季节工和临时工群体中。这些群体从1999年至2000年之后出现的经济增长速度滑坡中受到的损害可能最为严重。
