Digitalization of Public Finances and Public Procurement in Morocco: Impacts on Business Climate[Digitalisation des finances publiques et des marchés publics au Maroc : impacts sur le climat des affaires]

This article explores the impact of the digitization of public finances and the dematerialization of public procurement on the business climate in Morocco. Through empirical analysis, we demonstrate how these technological initiatives contribute to improving efficiency, transparency and economic competitiveness in a Moroccan context. Drawing on a robust methodology and data collected from a wide range of stakeholders, the study reveals a direct positive effect of dematerializing public procurement on the business climate. This process simplifies administrative procedures, reduces processing times and minimizes the risk of corruption, thereby boosting investor confidence and stimulating economic activity. While the influence of the digitization of public finances, while positive, does not appear to be statistically significant, it does include initiatives such as integrated financial management and budget transparency. These measures improve the management of public resources and reduce tax fraud, although their impact is more diffuse.
