Jordan JOR

Executive summary

Jordan's central bank maintains an adequate credibility score amid rising geopolitical tensions and limited policy transparency. The composite score of 64.5 reflects a credibility gap of 99.8, indicating a significant misalignment between policy expectations and actual outcomes. Recent events, including multiple missile strikes and armed conflicts, have heightened risks and undermined stability. With no clear communication from the CBJ and limited data on policy rates, investors face uncertainty. Geopolitical pressures, particularly from regional conflicts, have scored poorly at 45.0, signaling a major risk to macroeconomic stability. Institutional investors should closely monitor Jordan's ability to manage external shocks and maintain inflation control under these volatile conditions.
