«The fragmentation of international trade and persistent uncertainty are likely to weigh on global trade in goods and services, limiting the recovery of foreign demand for Moroccan exports», the report warns.

The current account deficit is forecast to reach 1.8% of GDP in 2025 and 1.9% in 2026. The budget deficit is expected to stand at 3.6% of GDP in 2025, narrowing to 3.4% in 2026.
