The Amadeus Institute announced that Morocco has established itself as the first African country in the "Stability-Attractiveness" ranking for 2025, thus rising to the continental forefront and solidifying its position as an African leader in this field.
Amadeus highlighted, in the 2025 edition of the attractiveness and stability indicators in Africa, which was prepared in partnership with the Casablanca Finance City Authority, that Morocco is the only African country that has consistently maintained its presence, since 2019, among the top three in the Institute's rankings for attractiveness and stability indicators, reflecting a unique, sustainable, and structured performance on the continental level.
A statement from the Institute mentioned that this leadership embodies the dual Moroccan excellence, based on the strength of institutions, regulatory clarity, the quality of economic governance, as well as the Kingdom's ability to attract productive investments in a sustainable manner.
The same source added that industrial diversification, the momentum of renewable energies and green hydrogen, and the modernization of logistical and port infrastructure, along with macroeconomic stability, are all factors that make Morocco a reliable continental hub at the heart of the new African and Euro-Mediterranean value chains.
It noted that this path, within the framework of the insightful vision of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, may God protect him, establishes Morocco as a model for the convergence between institutional stability, economic attractiveness, and long-term strategic foresight, in a regional climate characterized by increasing polarization.
In this context, the 2025 indicators confirm the need to link stability and attractiveness as two sides of the same coin, highlighting that institutional strength, governance transparency, social cohesion, and security remain the main factors for sustainable attractiveness.
It pointed out that "when these foundations erode, capital withdraws and the growth trend is reversed," explaining, in contrast, that countries that combine effective governance, clear regulation, and a clear economic vision, foremost among them Morocco, attract long-term investment flows.
On the continental level, Africa appears as a reservoir of growth, energy, and youth, but it remains at the same time vulnerable to rapid political, security, and economic transformations.
In this environment characterized by fragmentation, the multiplicity of regional crises, from the Horn of Africa to the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo, from Sudan to Libya, and from Niger to Mali, embodies the direct effects of these transformations, represented in proxy conflicts, conflicts of influence, pressure on strategic resources, and the shrinking of the African multilateral space.
This edition comes in a year marked by strong political momentum on the continent, which included presidential elections in Côte d'Ivoire, Guinea, and Benin, in a context that witnessed a coup attempt, as well as in the Central African Republic, along with military transitional periods in the Sahel countries, Madagascar, Guinea-Bissau, and Gabon, and the resumption of diplomatic consultations on the conflict in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo within the framework of the Washington agreement.
The statement continued that this complex and uncertain political dynamic is redefining the perception of country risks and the positioning of investors.
It pointed out that this new edition comes in an international context witnessing profound transformations, and is characterized by a significant acceleration in the pace of reshaping global geopolitical balances; global fractures, which have been exacerbated by the rise of protectionism and the proliferation of mutual sanctions, are sustainably redrawing supply chains, investment flows, and multilateral balances, which is directly reflected on African countries.
As recognized reference tools for public decision-makers, investors, and international institutions, these attractiveness and stability indicators allow a comparative, dynamic, and forward-looking reading of the performance of African countries in the areas of economic attractiveness, political, institutional, and social stability. These indicators are based on the analysis of more than 70 sub-indicators, derived from international data, national statistics, and the expertise of the Amadeus Institute.
It is worth noting that the Amadeus indicators are not merely rankings, but rather real tools to support decision-making, designed for long-term use, which allows for comparing the paths of countries and anticipating them, assessing the risks of each country individually, identifying factors of confidence, and measuring the impact of public policies in a context characterized by transformations in the fields of energy, climate, security, and finance.
Based on its mission as an African think tank and action center, the Amadeus Institute intends to continue providing public decision-makers, investors, and institutions with an objective, accurate, and independent compass, which allows for anticipating current changes and contributing to building a stable, attractive, sovereign, and sustainable Africa.
