The Moroccan central bank is currently holding talks with multilateral lending institutions and other central banks, centered on establishing cryptocurrency regulation best practices.
Inevitable Adoption of Cryptocurrencies
The Moroccan central bank governor, Abdul Latif Al Jawhari, has said his institution is currently in discussion with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank, about crypto regulation best practices, a report has said. In addition to the two international financial institutions, the Central Bank of Morocco (CBM) is also in talks over the same matter with central banks from France, Sweden, and Switzerland. According to a report by Unlock Media, Al Jawhari’s remarks concerning cryptocurrencies come on the heels of increased calls for authorities to regulate the crypto industry. Despite acknowledging the seemingly inevitable future adoption of cryptocurrencies by Moroccans, the CBM governor asserts that this should only happen when a regulatory framework is in place. Al Jawhari explained:Currently, we cannot adopt cryptocurrencies given the lack of regulatory and legislative frameworks both nationally and internationally. The G20 and many countries stress the importance of having a crypto regulatory framework as well as a regulatory framework for Central Bank Digital Currencies [CBDC].
