The Governor of the Central Bank of Jordan, Adel Al-Sharkas, revealed that the Jordanian economy continues to grow steadily despite geopolitical challenges and the complex regional circumstances. He explained that the national economy achieved an average growth of 2.9 percent during the period 2021–2024, the highest compared to previous periods since 2010.
Al-Sharkas pointed out that investment played a pivotal role in this growth, with its contribution to the GDP reaching about 40 percent during the 2021–2024 period, after recording a negative contribution to growth during the previous decade (2010–2020).
He emphasized that the strength of the foundations of monetary and financial stability led to an increase in the Central Bank’s foreign reserves to 22 billion US dollars by the end of June 2025.
