Morocco’s Casablanca Finance City, Africa’s leading financial center, announces the signing of a partnership with China’s financial center in Beijing to promote investment between Morocco, China and Africa.
This memorandum of understanding signed with the public establishment responsible for the development of the financial district of Xicheng in Beijing constitutes the first agreement of its kind concluded with a Chinese financial center.
“This partnership, established with the Xicheng District Financial Development Promotion Center (XDFDPC), marks a new step in extending its network of cooperation with the world’s major financial markets,” notes a statement from the CFC.
