00:06 Welcome to Medihand TV, it's time for your economic meeting.
00:10 We start in Morocco, where the turnover of Taka Morocco
00:14 has risen from 26% to 7.44 billion dirhams at the end of June 2023.
00:20 The results of Taka Morocco in the first half of 2023
00:23 have been marked by an improvement in operational performance,
00:27 a strong drop in net debt and a strengthening of financial solidity.
00:32 The continuous improvement of Taka Morocco's industrial performance
00:36 continued throughout the first half of 2023
00:39 with a global availability rate of 94.9% compared to 92.7% on 30 June 2022.
00:48 This progression in the global availability rate of units
00:51 has contributed to the evolution of the price of coal on the international market.
00:55 A 26.1% consolidated turnover bond on 30 June last year
00:59 compared to the same period in 2022,
01:02 which was 7.44 billion dirhams.
01:05 In the second quarter of 2023,
01:07 the consolidated turnover rose to 3.55 billion dirhams,
01:12 an increase of 3.4%.
01:14 Still in the kingdom, in the field of green and sustainable finance,
01:17 the total volume of sustainable financing on the world capital markets
01:21 should reach $1.4 billion by 2028.
01:25 The annual rate for the period 2022-2028 should thus be around 19.2%.
01:31 A forecast made by Abdelrahman bin Abdelal Hamidi,
01:34 Director General and President of the Arab Monetary Fund's Board of Directors,
01:38 the person responsible for which is said to be the remarkable growth

01:45 a shortfall of 391 billion dirhams.
01:49 As a reminder, the transition to green and sustainable finance
01:52 is a strategic direction linking the financial sector to the transition
01:56 to low-carbon and low-resource economies.
02:00 Let's head to Mali, where the state, with a new mining code,
02:03 is seeking to reclaim its gold.
02:05 On 28 August, Mali adopted a new mining code
02:08 allowing the state to take up to 30% of the new projects
02:12 and increase the revenues drawn from a capital sector for the national economy.
02:17 The country is one of the first gold producers in Africa,
02:20 with 72.2 tonnes produced in 2022.
02:23 Gold alone contributed to 25% of the national budget,
02:27 75% of export revenues and 10% of GDP,
02:31 said the Minister of Mines in March, the Seidou Traoré mine.
02:35 The reform of the mining code should bring in at least 500 billion francs CFA.
02:39 At the state's annual budget, the Minister of Economy,
02:42 Alou C. Nisanu, at the time of the approval of the text by the local council,
02:46 will meet with the legislature on 8 August.
02:49 The aim is to bring the contribution of the mining industry to 15 or 20% of GDP.
02:55 In France, inflation is a must.
02:57 The tax rate will increase by 7.1% on average this year,
03:00 but the increase is much greater in Paris and in many cities.
03:04 Starting this Wednesday, 30 August,
03:06 the owners will discover the annoying news of the return,
03:09 their tax rate finally available on their online tax space.
03:12 As every year, the basic tax rate has followed inflation,
03:15 prices have not stopped soaring since last year.
03:18 As a result, the French tax increases throughout the territory,
03:21 an unprecedented increase since 1986,
03:24 and this will be without counting on additional taxes,
03:27 voted by some municipalities in need of deniers to cover their budgets.
03:31 After all, all cities with more than 40,000 inhabitants are affected by the flood.
03:36 And to conclude, your JT Echo,
