Jordan's Prime Minister Omar al Razzaz said his country's economy has begun to strengthen
less than a year after embarking on tough fiscal reforms needed to bring down debt crucial
to spur growth hit by conflict in the region. Ahead of a major London donors conference on
Thursday, Razzaz told Reuters on Tuesday the kingdom would be presenting its policy steps
and commitment in proceeding with IMF-backed fiscal and structural reforms crucial to
rejuvenate the economy.
International partners have rallied around to offer fresh support for Jordan’s beleaguered
economy, with a number of large pledges made during a conference in London on February

the next five years, and France, which promised €1bn ($1.1bn) between 2019 and 2022. The
host government also chipped in, with UK ministers announcing a number of different
programs, the largest of which was the underwriting of a $250m soft loan via the World
Bank.

group with $183 billion in assets.That move came two months after Saudi British Bank

biggest lender in the first major tie-up for the country's banking sector in recent times.
Bahrain's cabinet on Monday approved a draft state budget for the next two years that

states, last year released a plan to fix its debt-burdened finances after securing a $10
billion Gulf aid pledge. It aims to eliminate its budget deficit by 2022.
