00:00Hello and welcome, it's time for your Economic News.
00:12At the end of our edition today, Banca Almarrib has decided to keep the director's rate unchanged
00:18during the third quarterly meeting of the year.
00:21The Central Bank Council has judged it appropriate to maintain the current orientation of the monetary policy.
00:27It has thus decided to keep the director's rate unchanged at 2.75%.
00:33Inflation has evolved at moderate levels since the beginning of the year,
00:36reflecting mainly the drop in food prices at volatile prices
00:41and the slowdown of its underlying component.
00:44The latter, after being established at 5.6% the previous year,
00:48is oscillating around 2% and will remain, according to Banca Almarrib projections,
00:52close to this rate over the next eight semesters.
00:56In the wake of the meeting of the Central Bank Council,
00:59the Moroccan economy should record this year a 2.8% growth rate,
01:05falling after an increase of 3.4% the previous year.

01:32Driven mainly by manufacturing and extractive industries,
01:36as well as activities related to tourism,
01:39non-agricultural growth should continue to improve,
01:42going from 3.6% the previous year to 3.9% in 2024 and 2025.
01:50Still with the data of Banca Almarrib,
01:52the Central Bank anticipates a significant drop in inflation from 6.1% the previous year
01:59to 1.3% this year before slightly rising to 2.5% in 2025.
02:05This forecast includes changes related to subsidies on basic products
02:09and the expected stability of volatile food prices.
02:12The bank notes a moderation of inflation since early 2024
02:17due to a drop in food prices and a slowdown in underlying inflation,
02:21which should remain close to 2% in the coming quarters.
