Jordan Financial Services

The financial services sector is one of the most robust and mature in Jordan, remaining resilient in the face of significant external volatility and retaining its role as a driver of economic growth in 2015. The banking sector in particular has been a major source of strength, with the Central Bank of Jordan maintaining a pro-growth monetary stance, following on from growth in deposits and profits at commercial banks in 2015.

This chapter contains an interview with Ziad Fariz, Governor, Central Bank of Jordan (CBJ); and Nemeh Sabbagh, CEO, Arab Bank.
