Morocco has received a strong endorsement from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development in its 2026 integrity and anti-corruption assessment, with performance indicators consistently exceeding OECD member averages across several key dimensions. The findings are contained in the report titled “OECD Integrity and Anti-Corruption Outlook 2026,” which benchmarks national anti-corruption frameworks against the organisation’s standards.
On the solidity of the strategic integrity framework, Morocco satisfies 73% of assessed criteria, compared to an OECD average of 38%. In terms of implementation, the Kingdom reaches 53%, well above the 32% average recorded across member countries. These results reflect the sustained impact of Morocco’s National Anti-Corruption Strategy, which ran from 2015 to 2025 and anchored the Kingdom’s commitment to transparency, rule of law, and accountability.
The most striking performance is recorded in political finance regulation, where Morocco achieves a perfect score of 100% on both the regulatory and practical dimensions — against OECD averages of 76% and 58% respectively. The legal framework governing party financing strictly prohibits anonymous donations and foreign contributions, imposes disclosure obligations on all political formations, and mandates the publication of financial reports, which the Court of Accounts oversees and can sanction for non-compliance.
On access to information, Morocco meets 78% of international normative standards and 54% in practice, compared to OECD averages of 72% and 62%. The country proactively publishes several integrity-related datasets, including government session agendas, public procurement data, and land registries. The report highlights the roles of two key institutions: the National Anti-Corruption Commission, established in 2017 to oversee strategy implementation, and the National Authority for Probity, Prevention, and Anti-Corruption, which coordinates policy and issues analytical recommendations.
The OECD nonetheless identified gaps, particularly in the practical application of access-to-information rules and in certain areas of implementation that lag behind the strength of the regulatory framework. Authorities have been encouraged to accelerate the adoption of a public service code of conduct, clarify conflict-of-interest management procedures, and advance the digitization of asset declaration systems.
