Morocco’s National Authority for Probity, Prevention, and Fight against Corruption (INPPLC) and the three financial sector authorities Bank Al-Maghrib, the Moroccan Capital Market Authority (AMMC) and the Supervisory Authority of Insurance and Social Welfare (ACAPS) held their fifth annual high-level meeting under the 2019 cooperation agreement, reviewing delivery in 2024–2025 and endorsing the 2025–2026 roadmap for preventing and combating corruption in the sector. Work over the period included seminars and training for more than 1,600 executives and managers across financial authorities and institutions, cooperation with the Moroccan Foundation for Financial Education to build trainer capability on integrity and corruption prevention, and ongoing knowledge sharing. Practical exchange covered corruption risk management (a seminar with more than 80 participants from banking, insurance and capital markets) and priority topics including gift policies, conflicts of interest management, and the rollout of anti-corruption training programmes. A corruption risk assessment project for the insurance sector, developed with United Nations experts, has been launched and is being finalised, with initial findings presented at the meeting; a similar capital markets project is underway and is expected to be completed by 2026. The 2025–2026 roadmap centres on further skills-building and integrity culture, awareness and experience-sharing initiatives, and implementing action plans from corruption risk mapping while defining frameworks to manage mapped risks in insurance and capital markets, aligned with approaches already applied in banking. The four institutions also agreed to conduct a self-assessment of the convention and its implementation modalities six years after its 2019 adoption, with a view to adapting them to national and international developments, and to support INPPLC’s sectoral approach.
