Al Tamimi & Company’s Morocco office accorded Casablanca Finance City position

It will act as a gateway to several African jurisdictions and support the firm’s vision and long-term strategy

The Morocco office of Al Tamimi & Company has been granted Casablanca Finance City (CFC) status. It is now part of an extensive business community comprising approximately 200 highly-regarded regional and international organizations that serve not only Morocco, but also the African continent.

Africa has been a pre-requisite to Al Tamimi & Company’s long-term strategy, as it recognizes that the country’s vast economic potential will continue to attract trade and foreign investment opportunities.

With offices in Morocco and Egypt, and now gaining CFC membership (the leading financial centre on the continent), the law firm believes that an increasing number of its clients are seeking to grow their footprint in Africa. Hence, supporting client requirements and growth is at the top of its agenda.

Commenting on the development, Samer Qudah, the managing partner at Al Tamimi & Company, remarked, “We are ambitious and want to continue to expand our presence in Africa, a territory that is strategically important for our clients. Through our on-the-ground presence and via our network of best-friend firms, we have a full-service offering, covering a comprehensive range of legal disciplines. We combine local know-how with world-class expertise and international quality to seamlessly support our clients across multiple jurisdictions. Our CFC status will provide the firm with a strong platform to make great strides across Africa.”

Nesrine Roudane, the partner and head of Al Tamimi & Company’s Morocco office said, “Being granted CFC status means we can foster closer relationships with the business community in Morocco and across many other African jurisdictions. We have a lot to contribute to the CFC network and look forward to engaging with our fellow members over the coming weeks and months.”
