Advice on Moroccan public law
Public law – at the centre of Public-Private Partnerships
As Morocco is quickly developing, the country’s public law is expanding and becoming more detailed in every aspect of its text and applications. As the number of public contracts and Public-Private Partnerships increases, involving ever more rigid contracts, greater vigilance is required on all the counterparts. National and local public bodies, public interest groups, regional authorities and their satellites must be doubly thorough in their decisions and procedures. Private operators whose activity involves them in matters of public law (e.g. construction operators, industrial companies, service companies, financial institutions), or which are linked to a public or parapublic entity, must ensure that they comply with the legal and regulatory framework and take the necessary measures to remain compliant – or face severe penalties. Whether you are a public body or a private company, our expert support will protect you against risks in this area.
