AMMAN — The market capitalisation of the Amman Stock Exchange (ASE) surged by 50.05 per cent in 2025 compared with 2024, according to official statistics released by the ASE.

The data showed that market capitalisation rose to JD26.493 billion in 2025, up from JD17.655 billion in 2024.

Trading activity also strengthened markedly, with annual trading volume jumping by 80.56 per cent to JD2.165 billion, compared with JD1.199 billion in 2024.

The ASE general index climbed by 45.12 per cent last year to 3,611 points, the highest level in 17 years, up from 2,488 points in 2024.

The large-cap index advanced by 47.22 per cent to 1,978 points, compared with 1,344 points in 2024, while the total return index rose by 58.52 per cent to 2,602 points, up from 1,641 points in 2024.

The ASE said that share prices increased for 106 listed companies during 2025, with 90 firms recording gains exceeding 10 per cent.

Bloomberg has recently ranked ASE 13th globally in performance for 2025, posting gains of around 45 per cent since the start of the year.

The performance represents a key positive indicator for the national economy and reflects an improving investment climate in Jordan.

The ranking highlights the market’s growing appeal to both local and foreign investors compared with a number of regional and international bourses.

Analysts attributed the strong performance to several factors, including a 32 per cent surge in foreign investment, robust corporate earnings in the banking and real estate sectors, and successful regulatory reforms that have enhanced international investor confidence.
