Egypt and Qatar signed a dual taxation elimination agreement aimed at boosting investment from the gas-rich Gulf Arab state, as the North African nation seeks hard currency to help revive its economy.

The pact, which covers elements such as capital gains, interest, income tax, corporate profits, dividends and other related issues, came as Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly met with Qatar’s emir and other top officials on Monday.
