Maroc Telecom and the IFC, the International Finance Corporation have entered a long-term partnership to accelerate digital connectivity in Chad and Mali. As part of the agreement, IFC will provide 370 million eurpo in loans to support the rollout of 4G services, enhancing mobile internet quality and coverage across both countries.
With this investment, Maroc Telecom aims to bridge the digital divide in underserved regions. “With over 57 million customers outside of Morocco, Maroc Telecom provides all telecom services, from fixed line to mobile, and obviously broadband data access,” said Mohamed Benchaaboun, CEO of Maroc Telecom.
“This long-term financial partnership with IFC in Chad and Mali will boost network coverage with a better quality of service, allowing massive adoption of 4G and supporting the countries’ development.”
The partnership also supports financial inclusion and sustainable growth.
“Wherever Maroc Telecom operates, we are partnering with local stakeholders to ensure that economic performance goes hand in hand with a positive social impact and sustainable development,” Benchaaboun added.
Makhtar Diop, IFC Managing Director, emphasized the broader regional impact of the collaboration.
“Supporting cross-border investments through regional champions like Maroc Telecom is a strategic priority for IFC—especially in fragile and conflict-affected areas, where economic development fosters stability.”
This initiative aligns with the African Union’s goal to establish a single digital market by 2030, unlocking new opportunities for innovation, job creation, and financial inclusion.
