Key Market Issues
  • Morocco is prone to high levels of corruption in virtually all sectors of business activity. According to Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index 2012, Morocco is classified as a highly corrupt country. Corruption has manifested itself in various forms ranging from bureaucratic and political affairs and misappropriation of public resources to fraud transactions related to state assets. The lack of transparency in the matters of national defense and security policy and the absence of internal audit of the Ministry of Defense (MoD) has aggravated the level of corruption within the sector.
  • Morocco receives large quantities of US FMF that is directed towards the country's defense capital expenditure. With a large quantity of US equipment in Morocco's defense base, the two countries share close business ties that are expected to continue over the forecast period. Morocco also remains highly dependent on US companies for the maintenance and support of its equipment and weapons. Furthermore, being an associated country of EU, Morocco gives preference to EU nations, particularly France, in terms of trade. Therefore, as long as these relationships persist, the US and France are set to dominate the Moroccan defense market in the forecast period; creating an obstacle for the suppliers of the Chinese and Russian territories.
