Washington, DC: The Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) approved today an 18-months arrangement for Morocco under the Resilience and Sustainability Facility (RSF) in an amount equivalent to SDR 1 billion (about US$ 1.32 billion, equivalent to 112 percent of quota).

The RSF arrangement will help Morocco address climate vulnerabilities, bolster its resilience against climate change, and seize the opportunities from decarbonization. It would also help the Moroccan authorities strengthen preparedness for natural catastrophes and stimulate financing for sustainable development. The arrangement would coincide with the remaining 18 months under the FCL arrangement approved in April 2023.
