“The money market remains balanced this week due to the increased interventionism of the Central Bank through its main and longer term operations. These amount to 112 billion dirhams (billion dirhams) against 104 billion dirhams a week earlier, thus satisfying the entire bank demand in liquidity ”, specifies the same source. Said note also highlights that the weighted average rate (PMR) remains in line with the key rate at 1.5%, while the MONIA rates (Moroccan Overnight Index Average), which are weighted average rates of repo transactions delivered, edged up 2 basis points to 1.43% in one week.
