Libya & Morocco Launch Joint Audit Initiative for Transparency
On Sunday, Libya and Morocco formally activated a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aimed at strengthening public sector auditing, accountability, and transparency across both countries. The agreement, signed between Libya's Audit Bureau and Morocco's Supreme Court of Accounts, was brought into action during an official meeting in Rabat, where senior officials from both sides laid out an operational roadmap for joint oversight and reform. The agreement is part of Libya's broader push to modernize its governance institutions and restore credibility to public financial management. As implementation begins, Libya and Morocco have agreed to focus on several critical domains of oversight. These include strengthening the identification and documentation of financial violations, improving mechanisms for ethical inspection, enhancing monitoring of government contracts and infrastructure projects, and accelerating digital transformation within audit institutions. During the official launch, the heads of both institutions stressed the importance of building a new model of regional cooperation that promotes international standards of good governance. A technical task force from each side has been formed to manage the first implementation phase, which includes a timeline and performance benchmarks for each area of cooperation. The Libyan Audit Bureau emphasized that this partnership with Morocco represents not only an institutional step forward but also a symbol of shared regional responsibility in curbing mismanagement and corruption. Both countries reiterated their intent to expand the agreement in future phases to include additional areas such as anti-corruption enforcement, fiscal reforms, and regulatory innovation. This development also coincides with the signing of the headquarters agreement for AFROSAI (the African Organization of Supreme Audit Institutions), reinforcing both Libya and Morocco's roles as active contributors to the continent's institutional oversight network.
