Friday 10 October 2025 - 23:54

Morocco ranked 50th worldwide in the 2025 Global Fraud Index, with an overall score of 2.38, placing it in the “grey zone”  neither among the most exposed countries nor the most protected, according to the British firm “SamSub,” which specializes in compliance and financial verification solutions.

The index evaluates countries based on four dimensions: fraud activity, access to resources, government intervention, and economic health. Morocco ranked 39th in fraud activity with 0.47 points, indicating moderate risk compared with other emerging markets. 

The country performed weakest in access to resources, ranking 91st, due to persistent disparities in internet speed, financial inclusion, and access to digital banking services between urban and rural areas.

In government intervention, Morocco stood 64th globally with a score of 0.69, reflecting average regulatory enforcement and coordination between financial oversight bodies.

 The country’s lowest score came in economic health, ranking 90th, as inflation, unemployment, and structural corruption remain key vulnerabilities linked to potential fraud risks.

At the international level, Luxembourg, Denmark, Finland, Norway, and the Netherlands topped the protection rankings, while Tanzania, India, Nigeria, Indonesia, and Pakistan were identified as the most exposed to financial and digital fraud.
