Fitch Ratings expects Moroccan banks' strong profitability to continue in 2025–2026, driven by favorable operating conditions, economic growth, and structural reforms. Despite challenges like high non-performing loans and structural constraints, Fitch highlights opportunities for improved financial strength and credit growth from infrastructure projects and investment loans.
