The French Minister in charge of Foreign Trade, Attractiveness, Francophonie and French Nationals Abroad, Franck Riester, will make a working visit to Morocco at the end of the week.

Mohcine Jazouli, Minister Delegate in charge of Investment, Convergence and Evaluation of Public Policies, affirms that Morocco is capable of decarbonizing the European economy.

Morocco attaches great importance to Moroccans living abroad in the development of a new investment charter. In this sense, a meeting was organized on Tuesday in Rabat, in order to collect their proposals.

In Morocco, the share of private investment from Moroccans living abroad remains low. Only 10% of MRE transfers are devoted to it. An incentive system is being put in place to better mobilize the investments of this community.

On the sidelines of the 5th Morocco-Japan Joint Commission, the two countries signed two agreements and a convention on Wednesday, January 8 in Rabat, with a view to strengthening their bilateral cooperation.

The French President, Emmanuel Macron, will visit Morocco on February 12 and 13, 2020.
