AMMAN —
The government is committed to expanding the management consulting services’
participation in enhancing industrial production processes and facilitating
access to global markets, said
Minister of Industry, Trade and Supply Yousef
Al-Shamali, according to the Jordan News Agency, Petra.
Inaugurating a
secretariat for institutional dialogue between the public and private sectors
for the consulting sector on Tuesday, Shamali emphasized the significance of
financial, insurance, and real estate services for boosting investments with
added value.
He said that the
government views its partnership with the private sector as a cornerstone in
its mission to achieve economic and social development, in accordance with the
Royal vision, for which the ministry’s consulting council was established to
formulate economic policy and legislation.

The secretariat is
an important step toward institutionalizing dialogue between the public and
private sectors, he said.
The service
sector, which includes the consulting sector, contributed JD21 billion, or 66
percent, to the national economy in 2021, he noted. Finance, insurance, real
estate, business, and consulting services contributed approximately JD6 billion
to the economy, the minister added.
The development of
new products and the overlapping of industries, particularly in small and
medium-sized businesses, have been sparked by the local economy’s opening up to
global markets, despite the lack of accurate figures on the consulting sector’s
contribution to the national economy, Shamali explained.
Diana Hollmann,
head of the Employment-oriented Promotion of Micro, Small, and Medium
Enterprises Project at the
German International Cooperation Agency, said that
the dialogue promotes economic growth as well as social and political
stability, emphasizing the need to increase and build on efforts.
She also praised
the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, the Dutch
government, and the Jordan Chamber of Commerce for their efforts to foster
serious dialogue between the public and private sectors.
