The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) is supporting the delivery of vital infrastructure services in Morocco with a €300 million financing package to state-owned utility and transport companies. It will also support the government’s reform agenda on the governance of state-owned companies.
Ensuring a continuous delivery of vital infrastructure services to the Moroccan people during the Covid-19 pandemic, the EBRD is providing €50 million loan to the “Office National de l’Électricité et de l’Eau Potable” (ONEE Water), €100 million to “Société Nationale des Autoroutes du Maroc” (ADM; Morocco’s national authority for the management of motorways), and a €150 million to the “Office National des Aéroports” (ONDA).
The three state-owned companies will also benefit from a capacity-building programme in several areas. In addition, the Ministry of Economy, Finance and Administration Reform will benefit from technical assistance to develop a reform strategy aimed at enhancing the governance of state-owned companies.
Morocco is a founding member of the EBRD and became a country of operations in 2012. To date, the EBRD has invested close to €2.5 billion in Morocco through 66 projects.
