00:00Hello and welcome to your daily meeting of Economic News.
00:10We start our edition today in Morocco, where the commercial deficit continues to lighten.
00:17At the end of March, it was established at 61.9 billion dirhams, or minus 14.6% during
00:26the first three months of the year in progress.
00:28According to the Trade Office, this increase covers a drop in goods imports of 4%, an
00:35increase in exports of 3% to 113.56 billion dirhams, while the coverage rate goes up
00:43by 4.4 points to reach 64.7%.
00:48Still in Morocco, the number of companies created was established at more than 16,170
00:55units during the first two months of the year in progress, according to the Moroccan Office
01:00of Industrial and Commercial Property.
01:03The sectoral distribution brings out the domination of commerce, with a share of 35.03%, followed
01:11by construction and construction and real estate activities with 19.14%, winter services
01:19with 18.17% and transport with 8.52%.
01:24In the Casablanca region, the ranking dominates with 4,972 companies, Tangier Citouan, Al
01:32Seima with 2,483 units, and Marrakech Safi with 1,849 companies created.
01:41Before closing the national economy page, know that the aeronautical sector attracts
01:46new investments.
01:48A partnership agreement was signed between the integrated industrial platform Midpark
01:54and the Swedish group Trilleborg, of an investment value of 110 million dirhams.
02:00This project aims to manufacture waterproofing systems for the aeronautical industry.
02:06The future factory will be established on a surface of 7,800 square meters of land,
02:12in 5,100 square meters of buildings, and will create between 150 and 200 direct jobs.
02:19Specialized in technical polymer solutions, the Trilleborg group was founded in 1905
02:26in Sweden.
02:27It has 30 research centers and employs more than 15,600 people on more than 100 sites
02:34distributed over 40 countries.
02:36In international economic news, according to Reuters, Algeria would threaten
02:42Naturgy, formerly Gas Natural, to cancel its deliveries if the Spanish company
02:48sold its shares to an Emirati company.
02:52The World Press Agency did not give the name of the company that could buy
02:56the shares of Naturgy, but the holding TACA of Abu Dhabi declared last April that it was
03:02in talks with the three main shareholders of Naturgy.
03:06If these negotiations succeed, the Emirates will launch a public purchase offer on the
03:12largest natural gas company in Spain, and this possibility has pushed Algeria, according
03:18to the same source, to formulate the threat of suspending its gas deliveries to Naturgy,
03:23given the tensions that characterize the relationship between Algeria and the United Arab Emirates
03:29for several weeks.
03:31In international news as well, the Saudi oil giant Aramco announced a net profit
03:37of $ 27.27 billion in the first quarter, a 14.5% drop compared to the same period
03:46last year.
03:47The drop was mainly the result of a decrease in the volume of crude oil sold.
03:53In concrete terms, this situation is due to a series of production reductions dating back
03:59to October 2022, when the oil-producing countries of OPEC Plus, which Riyadh co-leads with Moscow,
04:06announced a reduction in their production of 2 million barrels per day to raise prices.
04:13The first world exporter of crude oil, Saudi Arabia, currently produces around 9 million
04:19barrels per day, well below its capacity of 12 million barrels per day.
04:26We end our newspaper in Palestine, where the Monetary Authority has declared an investigation
04:31into thefts committed in the coffers of several Gaza banking agencies, after a report published
04:37by the French press stating 66 million euros stolen in the space of a few weeks.
04:44The independent organization that oversees the financial system recognizes that the banks
04:49in the Gaza Strip have had to face increased challenges due to the war with Israel,
04:55and that there have been cases of looting and theft of the contents of destroyed coffers.
05:00The Palestinian Bank, the main financial institution of Gaza, assures that the information
05:06is not exact as to the extent of the losses suffered by its branches in the Gaza Strip,
05:12but without specifying the amount of missing sums.
05:16On its part, the governor of the Palestinian Monetary Authority assures that the Palestinian
05:21banking system is capable of resisting extreme shock scenarios.
