Oxford Business Group signs MoU with Jordan Investment Commission

AMMAN — Oxford Business Group (OBG) announced Wednesday in a press statement that Jordan’s efforts to enhance its investment environment through new legislation will be given wide-ranging coverage in a forthcoming report.

"The Report: Jordan 2015 will look in detail at the kingdom’s newly-implemented investment law which should support the kingdom’s drive to attract foreign investment," the press release said.

"The publication will also consider the key role earmarked for the recently-established Jordan Investment Commission (JIC), which is expected to be instrumental in boosting and facilitating foreign direct investment inflows by bringing several organisations involved in attracting capital inflows under one roof,"  it added.

JIC has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on research with OBG for its forthcoming report on the Kingdom’s economy. Under the MoU, the JIC will collaborate with OBG as the official research partner for Jordan: The Report 2015.

OBG’s managing director for the Middle East, Jana Treeck, said that despite a challenging regional backdrop, Jordan’s reputation as a haven of stability, combined with its commitment to reform, sends a strong signal to foreign investors that the country remained open for business.
