Morocco: Return to Investment Grade Redefines Capital Market Outlook

🚀 Standard & Poor’s has upgraded Morocco’s sovereign rating to BBB-/A-3, restoring its coveted Investment Grade status. This marks a major turning point, validating fiscal consolidation and monetary discipline while reinforcing macroeconomic fundamentals.

• Debt Markets: The Treasury gains broader access to international investors, enabling cheaper sovereign funding and reduced reliance on the domestic market.

• Corporates: Banks and OCP could see upgrades to their own ratings, lowering funding costs and expanding investor bases.

• Equities: Lower sovereign spreads reduce discount rates, boosting equity valuations and enhancing Casablanca’s market appeal.

• Flows: The upgrade makes Morocco eligible again for global portfolios restricted to Investment Grade, improving liquidity and strengthening the case for MSCI EM re-entry.

• Confidence: The decision sends a strong signal to creditors and institutional investors, bolstering long-term visibility and trust in Morocco’s capital markets
