In a global financial climate marked by increased volatility, the Department of Treasury and External Finance (DTFE) has issued a clear signal on the imminent financing needs of the Treasury for the month of November 2023, anticipating a substantial fundraising.
According to recent statements from the DTFE, the Treasury plans to mobilize between 5 and 5.5 billion dirhams (MMDH) via the Treasury securities auction market. This figure, although significant, represents a significant drop compared to the month of October when needs were between 12 and 12.5 billion dirhams, illustrating a notable fluctuation in state financing requirements.
This forecast financing need echoes the public debt management strategy adopted by the Ministry of Economy and Finance, which tends to optimize the debt profile by exploiting market conditions. The use of the auction market constitutes a barometer of investor confidence in the financial health of the country, and a forecast amount of this scale indicates a significant need for liquidity to cover public spending and the government’s financial commitments.

The DTFE communication comes at an opportune time, providing investors with transparency on the Treasury’s financing plans and allowing markets to adjust accordingly. This raises questions about the motivations behind this reduction in financing needs. Is this the result of tighter budgetary management, improved tax revenues, or other positive economic factors?
