Morocco is one of the most dynamic economies in North Africa, with a strong base of family-owned businesses, industrial groups (automotive, aerospace, agri-food, construction, textiles, tourism) and a structured banking sector. Restructuring engagements have grown significantly, particularly since the reform of Book V of the Moroccan Commercial Code (Law no. 73-17) introducing safeguard and amicable settlement procedures.
