Morocco’s overall external position, a key indicator of the nation’s financial standing with the rest of the world, showed a net debtor position of 758 billion dirhams as of the end of September 2025. This represents an improvement from the 791 billion dirhams reported at the end of June, according to the Foreign Exchange Office.
The shift is primarily attributed to a 32 billion dirham increase in financial assets, with a smaller 1 billion dirham decrease in financial liabilities, the Office stated in a recent release.
The growth in financial assets was driven by increases across several categories, including reserve assets, which rose by 13 billion dirhams. “Other investments” increased by 10 billion dirhams, while portfolio investments and direct investments grew by 7 billion and 2 billion dirhams respectively.
A reduction in financial liabilities was largely due to an 8 billion dirham decrease in direct investment, partially offset by increases of 5 billion dirhams in “other investments” and 2 billion dirhams in portfolio investments.
