Geopolitical Risks

Despite a challenging external environment, four successive PLL arrangements since 2012 have supported reforms to strengthen macroeconomic resilience, economic growth and inclusion. Yet, economic growth, below 3 percent, is not robust enough and unemployment remains high, especially among the youth and women. Growth is also subject to elevated risks, including weak economic growth in the euro area, and geopolitical risks. In this environment, Morocco needs to step up reforms to further enhance its macroeconomic resilience, build buffers, and move towards more private sector-led, inclusive and job-rich growth. Priority areas include: taxation; public governance and the fight against corruption; social spending to reduce inequalities; labor market and education reforms; and greater exchange rate flexibility.

Rate Policy

We investigate the effect of exchange rate flexibility on economic growth. We find that exchange rate flexibility negatively affects economic growth, but this effect varies with the degree of financial market openness. Countries with high financial market openness benefit from maintaining high exchange rate flexibility, whereas the opposite is true for countries with low financial market openness. This empirical result implies that policymakers should consider the long-term growth effect when formulating exchange rate policy as it could be a useful policy option for emerging markets with limited policy independence. This is particularly relevant to policy coordination since greater exchange rate flexibility alone cannot solve the global imbalance.
