Morocco: Country outlook
Economist Intelligence Unit - Oct 2009

EIU expects Morocco’s real GDP to pick up steadily to 2.9% in 2010/11, and further to 3.5% in 2011/12 as Iran increasingly reliant on fuel imports. Weaker harvests may push up food prices in 2010-11, but inflation is expected  to remain below 3% over the two-year period.
