The forum will also offer investors and entrepreneurs in the Maghreb region the opportunity to engage in B2B meetings with participating financial institutions, in addition to hosting a banking and trade exhibition showcasing the latest solutions and technologies used in the sector.
The sessions will culminate in the presentation of practical recommendations aimed at strengthening the banking sector and deepening intra-Maghreb trade. The forum is expected to lead to the signing of partnership and cooperation agreements in banking and investment.
