gains and reducing territorial disparities to strengthening the welfare state and preserving budgetary balance, according to a government policy note.
The Moroccan government has defined the main priorities of the 2027 draft budget law in accordance with the directives of King Mohammed VI contained in his Throne Day speech.
The note, addressed by the head of government to the various ministerial departments, places the consolidation of economic momentum at the forefront, with the objective of strengthening the Kingdom’s position among emerging economies.
The second priority concerns the comprehensive upgrading of territories and the reduction of social and spatial disparities through an integrated territorial development approach. The third priority provides for the continued strengthening of the pillars of the welfare state and the major structural reforms undertaken by the kingdom.
Preserving the balance of public finances constitutes the fourth pillar of the future budget. “The draft budget law for 2027 is part of the consolidation of achievements and the continued mobilisation of the necessary funding for all the projects undertaken by the kingdom,” states the policy note.
The government thus intends to reconcile the financing of investments and social policies with the sustainability of public finances.
elections scheduled for September 23, 2026.
Presented by the note as a crucial milestone for the credibility of political practice and the renewal of trust between citizens and elected institutions, this election will usher in a new institutional phase.
The 2027 budget will therefore have to translate these orientations into concrete action while arbitrating between several imperatives: continuing structural investments, financing the expansion of social policies, accelerating territorial catch-up and maintaining control of public finances.
