Abstract AR

تهدف هذه الورقة إلى تحليل الآثار المترتبة على سياسات رفع الكفاءة التي انتهجتها دولة المغرب منذ حوالي عشر سنوات.

و قد قمنا بتطبيق نموذج تحليل الحد العشوائي لباتيس و كولي (1995) على مجموعة مكونة من 282 شركة من المغرب في الفترة من 1998-2005.

و هذه المنهجية القياسية تؤدي إلى تقدير الكفاءة الفنية للشركات المغربية التي لا تزال منخفضة للغاية حيث حققت معدل لا يزيد عن 13.3 %.

و لكن الأهم هو أنه يمكن في المرحلة الثانية إجراء تقييم لتأثير بعض العوامل البيئية على الكفاءة الفنية.

و بناءا على ذلك، فالكفاءة الفنية يتم البحث عنها في الشركات التي اشتركت رسميا في عملية رفع الكفاءة.

Abstract EN

The aim of the present paper is to analyze the impacts of the upgrading policies adopted by Morocco for almost ten years.

We apply the stochastic frontier approach initiated by Battese and Coelli (1995) to a panel of 282 firms from Morocco during the period [1998–2005].

Such parametric methodology leads to estimating the technical efficiency for Moroccan firms and we obtain an average of no more that 13.3 percent, which is considered very low.

Yet what is important is the possibility to conduct, in a second stage, an evaluation of the impact of some environmental factors on pure technical efficiency.

In this sense, improvement of technical efficiency is detected for firms which have officially subscribed in the upgrading process.
