Foreign Direct Investment inflows by country and sector
After a decline during the global recession, FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) flows to Morocco increased in 2014 and 2015, exceeding USD 3 billion. In 2016, however, flows fell by 29% to USD 2.32 billion. The country’s stability should attract more investors. In addition, a vast economic modernization project has been launched to boost FDI. Casablanca in particular aims to become an international financial center. France, Saudi Arabia, and Spain have traditionally been the three main investors. FDI is mainly concentrated in the real estate sector, industry, and tourism.
