00:00Hello and welcome, it is time for your newspaper of the economic news.
00:12We start in Morocco, which has made a notable advance in the world ranking of the tourist recipes of the World Tourism Organization.
00:20According to the Ministry of Tourism, Crafts and Social and Solidarity Economy,
00:25the kingdom leads from 41st to 31st place between 2019 and 2023.
00:31This remarkable rise, one of the strongest progressions among the 50 world destinations,
00:38testifies to the dynamism and resilience of the Moroccan tourist sector.
00:43To recall the tourist roadmap for 2023-2026,
00:472026 aims to strengthen this dynamic with an ambitious goal of reaching 120 billion dirhams of revenue by 2026.
00:58We stay in Morocco, still with the latest bulletin of Bank Al Marib's monetary statistics.
01:04The growth of the non-financed sector bank loan has accelerated from 3.1% to 3.3% in September.
01:13This evolution reflects the increase in loans to public non-financial companies of 14.9% and those to households of 1.1%.
01:23The central bank notes that the growth of private non-financial loans has slowed from 2.9% to 2%.
01:34On top of the national economic news, the price index for the manufacturing industry sector in oil refining has recorded a drop of 0.1% in September compared to August 2024.
01:50According to the High Commissioner for Planning, this drop is the result of the decline in prices of 0.2% of food and clothing industries,
02:000.6% of metallurgy, 0.5% of the manufacture of rubber and plastic products.
02:08In addition, the prices of the production of extractive industries, the production and distribution of electricity and the production and distribution of water have experienced a stagnation during the month of September.
02:22Direction now the Middle East, Gaza, Lebanon and Sudan will take decades to recover.
02:29Wars raging on their territory warn the IMF after seeing its growth forecasts for the region decline.
02:38The damage caused by these conflicts will leave lasting sequels for decades, said the organization in a statement during the publication of its latest regional report.
02:50The IMF has lowered its growth forecasts for the Middle East and North Africa by 2.1% for this year, a drop of 0.6% compared to its previous estimates published in April due to the effects of conflicts and cuts in oil production.
03:09However, it expects a 4% rebound next year.
03:14In international economic news, Stellantis, the parent company of Peugeot, Fiat and Chrysler, saw its sales in the third quarter plummet from 27% to 33 billion euros due to its difficulties in North America and delayed launches in Europe in particular.
03:31The group delivered 1.1 million vehicles in the third quarter, a drop of 279,000 units per year.
03:41According to the group's management, the third quarter was marked by the transition between two generations of vehicles.
03:48These difficulties have particularly slowed the business figure in Europe, on an already depressed automotive market.
03:54In North America, the business figure collapsed from 42% to 12.4 billion euros due to a drop in sales and promotions launched to reduce vehicle stocks.
04:07The group stressed that it was in the United States. We are moving to reach these objectives of reducing stock with 80,000 vehicles less than 100,000 planned for the end of November.
04:18This is the end of our edition today. Good luck with the programs on our antenna.
