Jordan Daily - Ministry of Investment issued 313 new investor permits and approved 92 investment projects worth JOD106 million in the first quarter of 2026, Investment Minister Dr Tareq Abu Ghazaleh said, signaling continued confidence in the country’s economy despite regional challenges.
Abu Ghazaleh said in a televised interview the kingdom continued to post positive investment indicators, citing a 25% rise in foreign direct investment inflows last year.
He added the first-quarter results showed the momentum had continued into 2026, with dozens of projects benefiting from investment incentives and exemptions.
“These indicators reflect the continued attractiveness of Jordan’s investment environment,” Abu Ghazaleh said, adding that government efforts to improve the business climate and enhance competitiveness were helping position Jordan as an investment destination capable of supporting economic growth and job creation.
