The governor of Bank Al Maghrib (Central Bank of Morocco), Abdellatif Jouahri, was awarded Saturday in Bali (Indonesia) as one of the best central bank governors in the world and the best for the Middle East and Africa region. North (MENA), reports the Moroccan daily L’Economiste.
The wali of the central bank won the two distinctions awarded respectively by the American magazine Global Finance and the Global Markets newspaper, during a ceremony organized in conjunction with the annual meetings of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (BM-IMF ).
Jouahri earned the “A” rating, the highest honor awarded, according to the “Central Banker Report Cards 2018”, an annual ranking established by “Global Finance”. The “A” distinction is obtained only by ten Central Bank Governors. In addition to Morocco, this note also goes to Philip Lowe (Australia), Mario Marcel Cullell (Chile), Mario Draghi (European Union), Karnit Flug (Israel), Mohammad Yousef Al-Hashel (Kuwait), Riad Salameh (Lebanon), Carlos Fernández Valdovinos (Paraguay), Elvira Nabiullina (Russia) and Lee Ju-yeol (South Korea).
If for Jerome Powell of the United States of America, it is too early to say, large countries hubs of global finance (Great Britain and Switzerland) are housed in category B.
