Moroccan Banks Announce Exceptional Year-End Weekend Operations for 2024

The Moroccan Professional Group of Banks (GPBM) has unveiled plans to keep banks open during the final weekend of 2024, marking a notable departure from standard banking hours. This exceptional measure, announced on Thursday, will see banks operating on December 28-29, 2024.

The initiative is designed to accommodate the diverse financial needs of individuals, businesses, and public institutions as they wrap up their year-end transactions. However, the GPBM has specified that this service will be limited in scope, with only select bank branches remaining operational during the weekend.

To facilitate public access to these services, each banking institution will publish a detailed list of participating branches on their respective websites. Customers are advised to consult these online resources for specific information about branch locations and operating hours.

This strategic move by Morocco's banking sector reflects an understanding of the critical nature of year-end financial operations and demonstrates adaptability in meeting customer needs during this busy period. The decision could have particular significance for businesses needing to complete final transactions before the new year and individuals managing personal financial matters.

The GPBM's announcement represents a practical solution to potential end-of-year banking bottlenecks, offering additional flexibility for financial transactions during what is typically a high-demand period in the banking calendar.
