Buying Power, New Sectors
Finance Minister Mohamed Lamine Lbou presented the 2027 Finance Bill to lawmakers, pledging to protect purchasing power by supporting widely consumed goods and introducing no new taxes, while also encouraging investment, diversifying the economy and modernising the administration. Transfers to individuals totalled 2,414.15 billion dinars, including 717.7 billion for consumer-goods subsidies. The bill also provides for 125,675 new jobs. The minister forecast economic growth of around 4.3% in 2026. Lawmakers welcomed the continuation of subsidies and called for them to be directed to those who need them, in order to safeguard public funds.
