Morocco's pension system is facing structural imbalances that have left its fund reserves deficient. Official and civil bodies have warned of urgent intervention through measures to end the bleeding.
Court of Auditors warned of a worsening deficit in pension funds, which threatens the system in the long term and disrupts public finances. Government spokesman Mustafa Paetas said "the retirement file is complex, difficult and difficult," noting that the government is working to reach solutions with unions. Among the proposed measures are raising the retirement age to 65 years, including the private sector.
