COE of the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC), Daniel Yohannes, urged, Thursday in New York, U.S. companies to choose Morocco, "a very important partner" of the United States and "one of the best destinations" for investment.
Morocco is "a very important partner" and given the "opportunities it offers," the Kingdom is positioned as "one of the best destinations for investment," Yohannes told the press.
The CEO of MCC made this statement following a conference on "Economic Transition in Africa : opportunities for private investment," which was marked by the participation of head of government, Abdelilah Benkirane, and presidents of Mozambique, Armando Guebuza, and Tanzania, Jakaya Kikwete, and Prime Minister of Lesotho, Thomas Thabane .
"I have been to Morocco (…) and we rightly believe that this country is the best destination for investment," said Mr. Yohannes particular, who noted that the opportunities are there." "It is for this reason that I urge U.S. businesses to invest in the Kingdom. It is really a great place with regard to the legal framework and business opportunities."
The MCA- Morocco program was signed by Morocco and the Millennium Challenge Corporation in 2007 in Tetouan, under the chairmanship of King Mohammed VI. The funding provided to the Kingdom by the MCC amounted to 697.5 million U.S. dollars.
