Ministry of Investment – Investment Promotion Authority

“Investment in Jordan is, in fact, a much greater investment in stability, resilience, and work — not only for those living in my country but also for the region.”
His Majesty King Abdullah II’s words about investment in Jordan.

Jordan Investment Promotion Authority 

The Investment Authority was an independent body directly affiliated with the Prime Minister and was not a separate ministry before 2021. However, following amendments to the Civil Service Bureau regulations, the head of the Investment Authority was granted the rank of Minister, thus receiving the privileges and powers of a minister.
Today, the Jordan Investment Promotion Authority has become an independent ministry under the Minister of Investment.

 

Ministry of Investment 

The Ministry of Investment was established in 2021 as the legal successor to the Jordan Investment Promotion Authority. It became the primary reference for investment in the Kingdom under Article 7 of the Investment Environment Law No. 21 of 2022.

The Ministry of Investment was introduced in the government of Prime Minister Bisher Al-Khasawneh during the fourth cabinet reshuffle. The ministerial portfolio was first assigned to Engineer Khairy Amr. After one year, the portfolio was transferred to Mrs. Khuloud Al-Saqqaf. In October 2024, following a government change, Mr. Jaafar Hassan became Prime Minister and appointed Mr. Muthanna Gharaibeh as Minister of Investment.

 

Frequently Asked Question: What is the difference between the Investment Authority and the Ministry of Investment?

Today, it has transformed from merely an investment authority into a full ministry with its own vision and mission, setting clear investment goals and moving toward achieving them to create a safe investment environment in Jordan and ensure its growth and sustainability.

Real estate investment ranks high among other sectors, especially across Jordan and particularly in the capital, Amman. The prosperity of real estate and urban development is evident from the architectural design of Queen Alia International Airport, through Airport Road, and into Amman’s most prestigious neighborhoods.
