MAROC TELECOM ____ 2017 Registration Document 1 WorldReginfo - 4e3f6317-7984-4435-8b2c-cd58e13b8244 + MESSAGE FROM THE MANAGEMENT BOARD’S CHAIRMAN Abdeslam Ahizoune Despite strong competitive and regulatory pressure, the performance of the Maroc Telecom Group in 2017 was excellent and demonstrated its resilience and agility in adapting to market developments. Its good results afƓ rm its strategic choices and give it the resources to achieve its ambitions. The Group is oriented toward Africa, where it currently has nearly 57bmillion customers, including more than 35bmillion in its subsidiaries on the continent. Maroc Telecom is one of the Ɠ rst companies that shared its know-how to help Africa develop harmoniously and rely on its own strength to achieve progress. This development, which involves promoting employment and investment to combat the digital divide, aims to provide everyone with the tools to speed up access to knowledge and expertise. The success of Maroc Telecom’s subsidiaries is based on the geographic proximity and the sharing of a common cultural and historical heritage, as well as respect for identities and, of course, the participation of local human resources. All of these assets can be seen in the current rapid growth of Maroc Telecom’s platform, one of the most successful in Africa and a signiƓ cant contributor to the Group’s results today. Because access to new technologies is an essential condition for the emancipation of individuals and societies, Maroc Telecom has made it a priority to support the development of a uniform and efƓ cient digital society. This is what made 2017 anotherbyear of massive investments across the Group to deploy and expand infrastructure and make technological innovation accessible to as many people as possible. Efforts are still constantly underway to connect the most remote areas. It is in this context that Maroc Telecom, after deploying 52,000 km of Fiber Optic cable nationally and internationally, will launch the West Africa international Ɠ ber optic undersea cableway in 2018. By signiƓ cantly increasing the connectivity of the countries linked to it, this cable will contribute to the permanent reduction of the digital divide in Africa. More than a global telecoms operator, Maroc Telecom is assisting the development of an entire continent. More than a global telecoms Abdeslam Ahizoune operator, Maroc Telecom is assisting the development of an entire continent. 2 MAROC TELECOM ____ 2017 Registration Document WorldReginfo - 4e3f6317-7984-4435-8b2c-cd58e13b8244 + CORPORATE GOVERNANCE François Hassan Abdeslam Larbi Brahim VITTE RACHAD AHIZOUNE GUEDIRA BOUDAOUD MANAGEMENT BOARD SUPERVISORY BOARD Chairman Chairman – Abdeslam Ahizoune, – Mohamed Boussaïd, Chairman of the Management Board Minister of the Economy and of Finance Members Deputy Chairman – Larbi Guedira, – Eissa Mohamed Al Suwaidi, Managing Director Services Chairman of the Board of Directors of Etisalat Group – Hassan Rachad, Managing Director Networks and Systems Members – Brahim Boudaoud, – AbdelouaƓ LAFTIT, Managing Director, Legal and Regulatory Affairs Minister of the Interior – François VITTE, – Abderrahmane Semmar, Chief Financial OfƓ cer Director of Public Companies and Privatization at the Ministry of the Economy and of Finance – Mohamed Hadi Al Hussaini, Maroc Telecom also Member of the Board of Directors of Etisalat Group includes eight regional divisions reporting to the Management Board’s Chairman – Saleh Al Abdooli, Chief Executive OfƓ cer of Etisalat Group – Mohamed Saif Al Suwaidi, Director General ofbAbu Dhabi Fund for Development – Hatem DOWIDAR, Managing Director of Etisalat International – Serkan Okandan, Chief Financial OfƓ cer of Etisalat Group MAROC TELECOM ____ 2017 Registration Document 3 WorldReginfo - 4e3f6317-7984-4435-8b2c-cd58e13b8244 + MAROC TELECOM IN BRIEF MAROC TELECOM Burkina Faso Morocco ONATEL CASANET % % 51 100 MAROC TELECOM MAROC TELECOM Niger AT NIGER Mauritania % MAURITEL 100 51.5 % MAROC TELECOM MAROC TELECOM * Benin ETISALAT BÉNIN 100% Mali MAROC TELECOM SOTELMA 51% MAROC TELECOM Central Ivory Coast AFRICAN RÉPUBLIC AT CÔTE D’IVOIRE % % 100 85 MAROC TELECOM MAROC TELECOM Ivory Coast PRESTIGE TELECOM CÔTE D’IVOIRE Gabon GABON TELECOM % Togo 100 AT TOGO % MAROC TELECOM % 51 95 MAROC TELECOM ** MAROC TELECOM LB@GBU<:GMIE:R>K BGMA>><HGHFB< :G=LH<B:E=>O>EHIF>GMH? 10 African countries * 51.5% controlled via CMC, a Mauritanian company. ** Merger of Gabon Telecom and AT Gabon on June 29, 2016.

  • Is Morocco Immune to Upheaval?
    DATELINE Is Morocco Immune to Upheaval? by Bruce Maddy-Weitzman The uprisings that swept across the Middle East and North Africa during 2011 have largely bypassed Morocco. The absence of tumult and the loudly trumpeted package of constitutional reform measures endorsed in a July 2011 national referendum1 further strengthened Morocco’s favorable image in the West as a country that has mixed tradi- tion with modernity and an openness to foreign cultures, and which is both politically stable and steadily evolving toward greater pluralism. Morocco’s success in having thus far dodged upheaval warrants explanation, for the country suffers from many of the same underlying ills that have driven the protests elsewhere—corruption, poverty, and unemployment; the overwhelming concentration of wealth in the hands of a small stratum of elite families intertwined with the authorities;2 the absence of real democracy; and closed horizons for its large, youthful population, suffering from disproportionately high rates of unemployment and underemployment. But Morocco’s starting point, in terms of its political institutions and political culture, is different in ways that provide some comparative advantages. Moreover, unlike other Middle East, autocratic regimes during this tumultuous year of popular intifadas,3 the Moroccan authorities, led by King Mohammed VI, have been sufficiently proactive in their responses to the rumblings from below so as to render them manageable, at least for the time being. the country’s deeper currents, reveals the extent MOROCCAN

  • Activite De La Bancassurance
    ACTIVITE DE LA BANCASSURANCE -EXERCICE 2017- Note réalisée sur la base des chiffres et données communiqués par le réseau de la bancassurance dans le délai réglementaire du 30 avril 2018. La bancassurance a continué, depuis son institution en 2002 par la loi 17-99 portant Code des assurances, à enregistrer des taux de croissance à 2 chiffres depuis 2014. En 2017, cette progression a été de 21% par rapport à 2016. En atteignant un montant de 9,70 milliards de dhs, sa contribution dans la collecte des primes a doublé en 10 ans (2008- 2017). Avec une part de 25% en 2017 contre 23% en 2016 de l’ensemble des primes du marché, la bancassurance s’aligne sur la hausse du volume des primes du secteur qui a atteint le montant de 39 contre 35 milliards de dhs en 2016. Constituant la véritable source de mobilisation de l’épargne, l’assurance «vie et capitalisation» reste la principale activité pour les bancassureurs. Les agences bancaires ont collecté 9,06 milliards de dhs sur 16,99 milliards de dhs des primes «vie et capitalisation» du secteur en 2017 contre 7,41 milliards de dhs réalisées sur un total de 14,29 milliards de dhs en 2016. A signaler que cette contribution de la bancassurance dans la collecte des primes de cette branche dans le chiffre d’affaires du secteur ne s’est pas faite au détriment du réseau classique qui a maintenu sa part de 47% au niveau de l’assurance «vie et capitalisation». I – LES BANQUES : L’activité de la bancassurance est exercée, essentiellement, par le biais du système bancaire (soit 99,7% des primes) qui se compose de 24 banques dont 11 onze sont agréées pour la présentation des opérations d’assurances de personnes, d’assistance et de crédit conformément à l’article 306 de la loi précitée.
