Morocco Banks apply the “Mohammed VI directive”
Second-tier banks will lower their interest rates against this target over a range ranging from 1.75% to 2% depending on whether young people belong to the urban or rural area. SMEs will also benefit from this new financing plan, according to information relayed by Financial Afrik. As a reminder, King Mohammed VI urged the banks to « have a more vigorous positive involvement in the development dynamic » that the country is experiencing.
