Moroccan local government fiscal planning

Overview

Morocco’s Ministry of Interior issued directives to local authorities regarding the preparation of 2027 fiscal year budgets. Minister Abdelouafi Laftit instructed officials to ensure budgets are realistic and sustainable, emphasizing strict spending controls to prevent debt accumulation ahead of upcoming local and regional elections. The guidelines prioritize reducing operating costs, optimizing resource use, and completing ongoing projects over launching new, non-urgent initiatives.

Following these national guidelines, the Agadir Municipal Council approved its 2027 budget as part of its 2022-2027 action program. The city aims to strengthen financial stability by increasing revenue and controlling expenses. For 2027, operating revenues are projected at 850 million dirhams, with operating expenses expected at approximately 571.7 million dirhams, aiming for a surplus to be allocated to the equipment budget.
