On Thursday, June 26, 2025, in Rabat, the Head of Government, Mr. Aziz Akhannouch, chaired the 8th National Investment Commission, established under the new Investment Charter, which has been operational since March 2023, in line with the High Directives of His Majesty the King, may God assist Him.
During this meeting, the Head of Government highlighted the ongoing strong momentum of investment in the Kingdom, which continues to manifest across various sectors and in numerous provinces and prefectures throughout the national territory.
The 8th National Investment Commission approved 36 project agreements and 11 amendments to agreements under the main mechanism set forth by the new Investment Charter. The 47 approved projects represent a total investment of 51 billion dirhams, expected to create nearly 17,000 jobs, including 9,000 direct and 8,000 indirect positions.
The investments approved under the main mechanism cover 23 provinces and prefectures across 10 regions of the Kingdom. Notably, these include Errachidia, Ouazzane, Chefchaouen, Essaouira, Beni Mellal, and Boujdour.
The projects span around twenty sectors, including the automotive industry, pharmaceutical industry, agri-food, metallurgy, energy, logistics, outsourcing, and tourism.
The automotive sector is the leading job creator among the projects approved at this CNI, accounting for 54% of the total, followed by the outsourcing sector with 9% and tourism with 8%.
The 8th session of the National Investment Commission is notable for being the last to handle investment projects under 250 million dirhams. According to Law 47-18, as amended and supplemented by Law 22-24, investment agreements for projects valued below 250 million dirhams will henceforth be drafted and approved at the regional level, in the spirit of decentralization and advanced regionalization.
Additionally, the 8th National Investment Commission granted strategic status to 5 new major investment projects in the automotive, metallurgical, textile, and chemical industries.
These five strategic projects are expected to be implemented in several regions, including Casablanca-Settat, the Oriental, Souss-Massa, Fès-Meknès, and Rabat-Salé-Kénitra.
