Bank of Jordan served as the Diamond Sponsor of the Jordanian-Iraqi Economic Integration Forum, which was recently held in Baghdad. The forum provided an invaluable opportunity to strengthen and develop economic and trade relations between Jordan and Iraq, facilitating the exchange of expertise and the establishment of strategic partnerships to enhance cooperation between the two countries.
Bank of Jordan's sponsorship of the Jordanian-Iraqi Economic Integration Forum comes shortly after the inauguration of its first branch in Iraq, in line with the bank's comprehensive strategic plan to expand its operations in the Arab region and identify development projects that aim to maximize the utilization of available resources between the two countries. This move also aims to achieve the highest levels of integration and partnership in all economic, investment, and trade fields.
The forum's activities included a variety of sessions and discussions that focused on various economic sectors and the opportunities available to companies and investors in Jordan and Iraq. Topics discussed included trade and investment, infrastructure development, innovation and technology, education and vocational training, and financial and banking issues.
It is worth noting that the Jordanian-Iraqi Economic Integration Forum was held at the Dijla Tourist Village from January 29 to 30. The forum witnessed the participation of official delegations and private companies from Jordan and Iraq. This exceptional forum represents a positive step towards exploring ways to strengthen economic cooperation and achieve regional integration between the two countries.
