The statement pointed out that Jordan ranked fourth in the
Arab world, following the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Qatar, and Saudi Arabia.
Moreover, the statement explained that Jordan maintained the
same score across four sources: the
Bertelsmann Transformation Index (BTI), the
Economist Intelligence Unit's (EIU) Country Risk Rating, the
Global Risk Insight (GRI) Rating for Countries, and the
Political Risk Services (PRS)
Global Risk Guide.
It also mentioned that Jordan showed improvement in three
out of seven criteria compared to the 2022 assessment: the World

Development (IMD) by 4 points, the Varieties of Democracy Project (V-DEM) by 5
points, and the World Justice Project (WJP) Rule of Law Index by one point.
This progress is attributed to the national efforts aimed at enhancing
