Risk management of Moroccan participating banks

Abstract

Within this industry, risk management is one of the pillars of banking management; this is evidenced by the fact that it currently receives a great deal of attention from market players, by initiating dialogues and stimulating discussions on the best ways to ensure this, in particular by identifying and measuring the risks in question. Far from weakening in use, this attention is only growing, constantly emphasizing the importance of a rational management of these risks.

Indeed, the global financial crisis of 2008 not only revealed the low level of risk management practices among traditional banks affected by the crisis, but also highlighted the solidity and strength of banks in the face of this phenomenon. Participative banks are thus attracted the attention and interest of many people, administering the evidence of their ability to function successfully despite the series of financial and economic crises experienced by the world economy.

The quality of this work lies in the consideration of these different complex aspects of the identification, measurement and risk management in Moroccan participating banks, to try to bring an informed opinion to professionals and practitioners in the field through an exploratory study, and finally answer the following questions: how are present at present, the tools set up by Moroccan participatory banks for risk management?

Keywords: Attractiveness; participatory banking; risk management.
