Morocco Country Private Sector Diagnostic April 28, 2026 Download o Full Report (English | French) « Executive Summary (English | Arabic | French) This Country Private Sector Diagnostic (CPSD) for Morocco provides an indepth assessment of the country’s economic landscape, examining the role of private sector development in driving sustainable growth, job creation, and competitiveness. While Morocco has achieved notable progress through macroeconomic stability, infrastructure investment, and structural reforms, private investment remains below its potential. The report identifies key cross-cutting constraints — including regulatory complexity, skills gaps, and limited market dynamism — that continue to hinder private sector expansion and broader economic inclusion.Focusing on four priority sectors — decentralized solar power, low-carbon textiles, argan oil and natural cosmetics, and marine aquaculture — the CPSD highlights areas where targeted policy reforms can unlock significant private investment and employment opportunities. These sectors align with Morocco's strategic objectives of green transition, industrial upgrading, and regional development, offering strong potential for value addition, export growth, and inclusive job creation, particularly for youth and women. The report outlines short-term and actionable recommendations to address sector-specific and systemic barriers, emphasizing the need for regulatory clarity, improved coordination, enhanced access to finance, and strengthened skills development. By implementing these reforms, Morocco can catalyze private investment at scale, accelerate its transition toward a more competitive and sustainable growth model, and advance its long-term development goals.WORLD BANKGROUP
