Attijariwafa Bank Partners with Kiwi Collecte to Advance Crowdfunding in Morocco

Rabat – Attijariwafa Bank has officially sealed a strategic partnership with Kiwi Collecte, a rising Moroccan fintech startup specializing in crowdfunding, marking a major step toward structuring Morocco’s emerging participatory finance sector.

Announced during an event in Casablanca, the alliance reaffirms the bank’s long-standing commitment to financial innovation and support for Moroccan startups. Since 2022, Attijariwafa Bank has been backing Kiwi Collecte by helping the platform define an operational model tailored to the local market and in line with regulations issued by Bank Al-Maghrib.

Kiwi Collecte is the first Moroccan digital crowdfunding platform to be officially licensed in the country. It connects socially conscious and innovative Moroccan project leaders with their communities worldwide, enabling transparent and accessible financing.

This support proved vital in March 2024, when Kiwi Collecte became the first platform to obtain the “Donation” license under Morocco’s new regulatory framework for crowdfunding. This historic approval cements its pioneering role in a sector that offers promising opportunities for both project initiators and civic-minded contributors.

Attijariwafa Bank sees this partnership as a forward-looking investment that aligns with Morocco’s growing demand for alternative financing solutions. It contributes to broader goals of financial inclusion and social innovation.

By linking traditional finance with the solidarity economy, the bank aims to create a more inclusive, digital, and community-centered financial system. The initiative also aligns with Attijariwafa Bank’s strategic roadmap, focused on impactful, forward-thinking financial practices.

With this alliance, both institutions hope to drive the development of a robust crowdfunding ecosystem in Morocco — one that empowers entrepreneurs, strengthens social ties, and accelerates the country’s transition toward inclusive economic growth.
