BMI View: We hold an optimistic outlook for the Moroccan pharmaceutical market despite the economic
slowdown over 2016. We expect the government’s increasing efforts to improve healthcare coverage
coupled with the country’s growing non-communicable disease burden will drive the demand for medicines
in long-term. A major downside risk to our forecast is the uncertainty surrounding drug prices as a result of
price cuts and increased taxation on medicines in recent years, which will negatively impact the
attractiveness of the market to multinational drugmakers.
