Housing Bank has sponsored a discussion with the Prime Minister Dr. Jafar Hassan, organized by the Jordan Strategy Forum. The event, held on Sunday, 10th of November, at The Ritz-Carlton, Amman, was attended by forum members, investors, and economists from the private sector. The meeting covered a wide range of economics-centered topics and included the launch of the Forum’s new interactive Economic Indicators Dashboard, which aims to support decision-making and policy development.
Housing Bank's sponsorship of this discussion underscores the its commitment to supporting initiatives, institutions, events, and forums that aim to strengthen and empower the economic sector. The bank also values its role within the Jordan Strategy Forum, a center for economic thought that fosters constructive, evidence-based dialogue. The Forum’s mission is to raise economic awareness, enhance participation in decision-making, promote best practices, and contribute to building a strong, competitive, and sustainable economy. The Forum also seeks to enhance the role of the private sector in driving growth and development.
During the meeting, participants discussed several proposals aimed at strengthening the partnership between the public and private sectors in order to achieve key economic and developmental goals. Key topics included the importance of performance indicators for measuring progress in public sector development, which is critical to the successful implementation of the country’s economic modernization vision. Other areas of focus included the informal sector, investment projects, capital spend, the financial market, energy, and food security among others.
It is worth noting that the Jordan Strategy Forum was established in 2012 with the goal of consolidating the private sector’s genuine commitment to participating in meaningful dialogue on economic issues affecting Jordanians. The Forum works to promote comprehensive economic development by bringing together active institutions and companies from the Jordanian private sector, as well as policymakers, specialists, and economic experts.
