Woman chairs Moroccan stock market companies

The board of directors of the Moroccan stock market companies' assembly, has agreed to appoint Nozha Haiat as the head of the assembly for a year, putting a woman in such a position for the first time in the history of an Arab stock market.

The new head pledged to carry out the responsibilities of her post, upon which law no 211 of 1993 dictates, concerning the Moroccan stock market in Casablanca.

In television statements, Haiat said she would exert efforts to raise the vocational level of women working in the stock market especially and all the workers in the stock market generally.
