Tunisie Telegraph: Zero-interest loans in Tunisia a social move or banking challenge
Order No. 148 of 2026 regarding moral loans has sparked widespread discussion in Tunisia. It aims to provide interest-free loans or guarantees to groups facing difficulties in obtaining funding. Experts believe that practical implementation may face challenges, including conflicts with the traditional banking approach that relies on risk assessment, and the possibility that banks may resort to unspoken selectivity by favoring lower-risk applications or handling requests superficially. Additionally, the limited allocated funding of 120 million dinars, in comparison to the demand, raises concerns, as its success likely depends on strict oversight of its actual application. Ultimately, the main challenge remains transforming the legal text into an effective financing mechanism that achieves social and economic goals without negatively impacting the banking system.
