Evaluation of the Impact of the New Investment Charter on Morocco's Investment Climate: Towards Sustainable Growth

Abstract: This paper thoroughly examines the implementation and potential impact of the new investment charter in Morocco, focusing on its role in enhancing the country's investment climate. While it is premature to fully assess concrete outcomes, the charter shows promising prospects for boosting investments. It introduces attractive territorial incentives and strengthens legal certainty through improved land registration aimed at revitalizing high-potential investment zones. The study highlights challenges faced, such as the difficulty in gathering comprehensive quantitative data due to the novelty of the charter. Despite these obstacles, interviews conducted with investors have provided initial insights into perceptions and early observed effects. In conclusion, this research calls for further research to better understand how the charter can promote sustainable economic development in Morocco. It emphasizes the importance of ongoing evaluation to fine-tune policies and maximize benefits for the country's economy and investors.
