Résumé

Abstract:
This paper examines the factors driving structural transformation in Morocco, focusing on gross fixed capital formation (GFCF), human capital, trade openness, and institutional quality. Using a VAR model, we analyze their impacts on manufacturing value added as a percentage of GDP and explore the dynamic interactions through impulse response functions. Findings highlight GFCF and institutional quality as critical contributors to manufacturing productivity, while human capital shows a nuanced impact, suggesting the need for tailored policy interventions. The study underscores the significance of robust investment, trade policies, and institutional frameworks to support Morocco's sustainable economic development and structural change.

Keywords: Structural Transformation, Manufacturing Value Added, Institutional Quality, Human Capital, Trade Openness, Morocco
