Bank liquidity deficit exceeds 140 billion dirhams as Bank al-Maghrib increases interventions
Bank liquidity in Morocco registered a deficit exceeding 140 billion dirhams, signaling rising monetary pressures in the banking sector. This prompted Bank al-Maghrib to strengthen its interventions to ensure financial market balance and stability of the banking system.
Official data indicated that the increase in demand for bank liquidity stemmed from several factors, including a heightened need for financing among businesses and significant financial flows in recent periods. This necessitated intervention by the central bank to provide liquidity through various monetary policy tools, including open market operations and targeted bank facilities.
Experts noted that Bank al-Maghrib’s interventions aim to mitigate the impact of the deficit on interest rates and market stability, while ensuring that banks can meet customer needs, especially amid fluctuating economic conditions and challenges related to investment and consumer financing.
Financial sector observers continue to monitor developments in bank liquidity, considering that controlling the deficit and enhancing monetary stability are fundamental pillars for maintaining investor confidence and protecting the national banking system.
