The MAD/USD pair shows how many US dollars are needed to buy one Moroccan dirham, used by travelers and businesses trading with Morocco.
Each row combines a UTC date, a rate and the change from the previous available observation. A positive change means the base currency buys more of the quote currency than on the previous available date.
Days without a quotation are not interpolated: the series keeps only observations that were actually received.
Compare several periods before a trip, an international transfer or a foreign-currency invoice. The average, minimum and maximum provide a quick reference, while the table enables a date-by-date check.

The MAD/USD currency pair represents the exchange rate between the Moroccan Dirham (MAD), the official currency of Morocco, and the United States Dollar (USD), the world's primary reserve currency. This directed quote indicates how many US dollars are required to purchase one Moroccan dirham. An appreciation of the dirham means that fewer dollars are needed to buy one MAD, which benefits Moroccan importers and travelers to the US but can challenge exporters by making their goods more expensive abroad. The pair is closely watched by tourists, remittance senders, and companies engaged in trade between Morocco and the United States.
Structural drivers of the MAD/USD rate include the monetary policies of Bank Al-Maghrib (BAM) and the Federal Reserve. BAM manages the dirham against a basket of currencies, with the euro and dollar having significant weight, and intervenes to maintain stability. The Fed's interest rate decisions influence the dollar's strength globally. Morocco's economy is diversified, with key sectors including agriculture, tourism, and phosphates. The country's trade balance, tourism revenues, and remittances from Moroccans abroad affect dirham demand. Capital flows, foreign direct investment, and global risk sentiment also play roles. The USD is influenced by US economic data, inflation, and geopolitical events.
Over recent years, the MAD/USD rate has experienced moderate fluctuations, reflecting Morocco's managed float regime and the dollar's broad trends. The dirham has generally depreciated against the dollar over the long term, but with periods of stability due to BAM's interventions. The COVID-19 pandemic impacted tourism and trade, causing volatility. More recently, the pair has been influenced by divergent monetary policies, with the Fed raising rates aggressively to combat inflation while BAM maintained a more accommodative stance. This has put downward pressure on the dirham. However, Morocco's improving economic fundamentals and foreign exchange reserves have provided some support. The outlook remains tied to global economic conditions and policy decisions.
