(Recasts with deputy minister)

By Ehab Farouk

CAIRO, May 23 (Reuters) - Egypt expects to raise 5-7 billion Egyptian pounds ($276-$387 million) through initial public offerings (IPO) of state-owned companies during the 2017-2018 fiscal year beginning in July, deputy finance minister Ahmed Kouchouk told Reuters on Tuesday.

That is lower than the 7.2 billion pounds the ministry in a draft budget for the 2017-18 fiscal year said it expected to raise through an initial public offering of Banque Du Caire.

Egypt has been struggling to revive its economy since a popular uprising in 2011 drove away tourists and foreign investors.

The last time state-owned companies were listed on the exchange was in 2005 when shares were floated in Telecom Egypt and oil companies Sidi Kerir Petrochemicals and AMOC.
