The unfolding of the global financial crisis during 2008 had its toll
on many countries, Jordan was no exception. Its real GDP growth
slipped 5 percentage points to reach around 3% in 2009. In 2011,
yet another major exogenous shock hit Jordan’s economy,
namely; what came to be called the Arab Spring, particularly, the
Syrian crisis, which presented major economic, political and social
challenges, the effect of which are still present today. In the wake
of these unfortunate events, Jordan responded by introducing
major political and economic reforms supported by the wise
leadership of H.M. King Abdullah II.
Political reforms included the establishment of the Constitutional
Court and the Independent Commission for Elections. Almost 1/3
of the Constitution was amended by Parliament.
Economic reform measures included the withdrawal from
generalized subsidies in the energy and water sectors and the
redirection of part of the savings to cash transfers that better
target the poor and the vulnerable. Further fiscal measures were
taken to consolidate Jordan’s fiscal balance. In terms of other
structural reforms, Jordan is working on removing rigidities in the
labor market and enhancing the business environment and good
governance as well as access to finance.
In Jordan it is believed that non-economic factors such as the rule of
law, freedom of expression, and human rights, are equally important
in raising productivity. The government will ensure continual efforts
towards maintaining international standards in these areas. Finally,
on this point, the rate of return on investment projects should be
competitive compared to the rates of return in other countries or other
regions. The monetary and fiscal policies are anchored in achieving
the levels of interest, inflation and real exchange rates consistent with
maintaining competitiveness.
The process of reform is not inherently popular and policy choices
had to be made. The strong political will and leadership of H.M. King
Abdullah II made those reforms possible, facilitating negotiations of
all measures with Parliament and other sectors of Jordan’s civil
society.
In summary, the reforms aim to maintain macroeconomic stability
while performing a major transformation in the role of the public
sector from providing privileges such as public employment and
subsidies to one of providing basic economic services, social
protection, better governance and competitive environment for the
private sector.

Jordan’s Macro Outlook

Jordan’s Macro Outlook
KeyReformsduring2019
• The authorities have taken several measures
and implemented a number of reforms to confront
economic challenges, including the adoption of a new
income tax law in their efforts to firmly return the combined
public deficit to a downward path; reducing it to 2.5% of
GDP in 2019. While the country’s fiscal consolidation plan
aims to reduce public debt to 77% of gross domestic
product by 2021 compared to 94% of GDP at the end of
2018.
• The new income tax law expands the tax base in an
equitable manner; closes some distortions and loopholes;
and helps protect specific sectors severely affected by
regional conditions, in addition to critically setting the stage
for a greater and much-needed focus on reducing tax
evasion in the years ahead.
• The steadfast and unwavering implementation of the
new income tax law, together with a significant
strengthening of tax administration to overcome the marked
revenue underperformance of 2018.
• These efforts build on the Jordan Economic Growth
Plan 2018–22 and are anchored by the five-year reform
matrix launched at the 2019 London Initiative. The
authorities’ program includes measures in the areas of
reducing business costs and enhancing competitiveness,
labor market reforms, governance, improved tax collection,
and enhanced access to credit.
TheLondonInitiative2019
• The initiative is a five-year pathway to
unlocking growth, investment and jobs for Jordan,
designed by Jordan. The focus is squarely on
implementation. It includes three areas where Jordan and
the international community can partner together in
support of lasting change, a set of implementation
principles to guide delivery, and a follow-up mechanism to
ensure commitments are fulfilled.
• Jordan has set out a credible vision and
detailed agenda to achieve economic transformation. HM
King Abdullah II articulated an inspiring vision of a self-
reliant, prosperous and inclusive country. HM’s vision
focuses on economic transformation: moving to private-
sector growth powered by Jordan’s highly educated young
population moving into jobs in high-end service exports
and entrepreneurialism. This is a shift in focus to future-
proofed sectors such as professional and business
services, logistics, technology and tourism, along with
improving education quality to power the economy of
tomorrow.
• The IMF called on the London conference to
unlock much-needed budget grants and concessional
financing to support Jordan’s reforms and large financing
needs, accentuated by accommodating the many Syrian
refugees.
• June 2020 marked the Kingdom’s return to the debt capital markets following a 3-year absence, with the
largest international Eurobond offering for the Kingdom. A $1.75bn offering comprising $500 mm 5-year and
$1.25 bn 10-year tranches re-established new benchmarks with the Kingdom’s first dual-tranche offering.
Jordan's conservative and effective banking regulations along with optimistic future expectations played an
important role in having a 3.4x oversubscribed orderbook peeking at $6.0bn thus marking the largest
orderbook for the Kingdom ever with over 270 investors participated reflecting the global following of the
Kingdom’s credit story.

Jordan’s Macro Outlook
• Political stability, the rule of law, and empowering all sectors of society has added resilience and optimism
to Jordan’s economy. Furthermore, the educated national force in Jordan compliments the business friendly
environment and helps attract FDI flows. Most importantly, wise and humane management, at the highest level
of governance is a blessing that Jordan enjoys. Finally, Jordan has demonstrated that despite the difficulties
inherent in the reform process, and despite the extraordinary burdens due to the Syrian crisis and other
regional unrest, reforms can and should be realized, in order to continue to play its positive and moderating
role in the region.
Looking Forward

Shared ProsperityThe Bank Today
• The Bank today is focused on becoming a true ‘shared value’ organization, where a holistic value proposition to customers, employees, regulators, society, and shareholders is
coordinated and vastly enhanced.
Diversity & Expansion of Services1997 - 2017
• Ahli Bank exercised the first merger of a financial institution in Jordan by adding The Business Bank (1996) to its operations, in addition to Philadelphia Investment Bank (2005). In efforts
to diversify Ahli Bank’s operations, Jordan Ahli Bank founded Ahli Microfinance Company (1999), Ahli Brokerage Company (2006), in addition to Ahli Financial Leasing Company
(2010).These independent subsidiaries are wholly owned by the Bank. In support of the bank’s ambition to embrace innovation in customer experience, products and services, it launched
its latest subsidiary, the Ahli Fintech Accelerator (2017).
International Reach1981
• In 1981, the Bank used a computer for the first time, leading to fast-paced and automated operations. In 1985, the Bank established its first presence outside the Arab world by opening
its offshore banking unit in Limassol/Cyprus.
Regional Presence1961
• The Bank continued to grow and established its first branch outside Jordan in 1961 in Al-Hamra, Beirut, later renamed Al-Ahli International Bank (AIBL). During H1 2014, Ahli Bank
completed the sale of its entire 98% stake in the Lebanese subsidiary (AIBL). In 1971 the Bank continued its overseas expansion program to the Gulf region by contributing 25% of the
share capital of Dubai Bank LTD (1971), which was later sold.
Commencement of Operations1956
• On April 4 1956, the Bank sent a circular to shareholders informing them of the commencement of its operations on April 14 1956. In 1958, the Bank opened a branch in Nablus which
was the second of a series of branches and the first in the West Bank. It also raised its capital to JD 1 million.
Establishing Jordan Ahli Bank1940
• Towards the end of the 1940s, the idea of establishing Jordan Ahli Bank presented itself to the late Yousef Muasher when the migration of Palestinians to Jordan in 1948 injected life into
the Jordanian market. With the support of the late Suleiman Sukkar, the dream flourished and became a reality in 1955.

targeted towards levels that are lower than the industry average
through lowering expenses and increasing profitability.

Overall Financial Performance as of 30/6/2020
• A clear and positive trend has been witnessed in all credit performance ratios, assuring the quality of the portfolio.

below-industry averages.
• An outstanding coverage ratio of (102.3%) has been reached in 2019, trending upwards throughout the past several quarters.
However, and as a result of booking credit provisions for expected credit losses during the pandemic in 2020, coverage ratios,

• Continuous efforts towards larger settlements and recoveries, which will further reduce NPLs and increase profitability.

Interest rate changes implemented by the US Federal Reserve are reflected instantly on Jordan’s monetary
system as the Jordanian Dinar is pegged to the US Dollar. As a result, the market has become increasingly
competitive and Jordan Ahli Bank is working on tailoring and providing low-to-non interest bearing products to our
clients as an approach to lower cost of funds.
This strategy will lower interest expense paid and widen our customer base to reach the optimal mix of CASA vs
Time Deposits, in addition to enhancing NIMs.

• Jordan Ahli Bank’s Capital Adequacy Ratio has been trending upwards since mid 2017 and settled at 15.42% as of June 2020,
which is well above the 14% minimum ratio set by Central Bank of Jordan.
• Sharp declines in CAR during 2016 and early 2017 were a result of the large provisions JAB has taken on its books during the
loan book clean up, affecting Tier 1 capital directly. However, the success and benefits of such an action can be seen in mid-2017
onwards and has set the stage for future prosperity.

Ahli Dividend Yield (%)
* Jordan Ahli Bank distributed a 10% stock dividend for 2012, 5% for 2016, 5% for 201
and 4% for 2018
• Jordan Ahli Bank’s share price is positively correlated with
the Banking index itself, in addition to being one of the most
actively traded Banks on Amman Stock Exchange, proving to
be a sound and profitable investment for long term investors.
• The Governor of the Central Bank of Jordan issued a memo
to all local Banks informing them of their decision to
postpone all cash dividend payouts for the year 2019, and to
be distributed with the closing balances of 2020’s financial
statements. Such a decision will help bolster the Jordanian
banking system’s financial position further as the span of the
global pandemic outcomes are still unclear and unknown to
many.

• Established business franchise in Jordan.
• High concentration in Jordanian government debt (although denominated in local currency).
• Comparatively high related party lending.
• Moderate operating profitability pressured by high cost structure.
• Challenging operating environment, together with high credit and geopolitical risks (in common with other Jordanian
banks).

Liquidity
Performance Outlook
Rating Rational
• JAB’s capital adequacy increased to a sound level from retained earnings in 2018, and is considered an important credit
strength.
• CAR has a high Tier 1 element, although regulatory capital continues to be negatively affected by intangibles.
• JAB’s sound capital base serves as an effective buffer in the current high risk environment and continues to support business
expansion.
• JAB’s balance sheet remains very liquid, in common with other Jordanian banks, with key liquidity ratios improving in 2018 and
H1 2019 due to credit contraction.
• JAB’s liquidity is underpinned by customer deposit funding, with moderate reliance on wholesale funds, while the bulk of liquid
assets comprising Jordanian government securities.
• In view of ongoing heightened credit risk, emphasis is being given to early recognition and strict monitoring of NPLs. JAB will
continue addressing NPLs through collections, as well as write-offs and off-balance sheet transfers of legacy loans.
• After a slowdown in 2018 and 2019, the 2020 budget calls for renewed growth in both loans and deposits in an attempt to grow
market shares in the home market.
• Palestine is also a focus market with six new branches added in West Bank in recent years, in an attempt to leverage on the
unutilised capital, after fulfilling the increased minimum capital requirement of US75mn in June 2018.
• While corporate lending remains a key focus, emphasis will continue to be placed on SME funding (in line with many Jordanian
banks), following the incentives granted by the CBJ in the form of soft loans. Exposure to the government through bonds will
continue to be high, while financing to GREs will remain negligible.
• CAR will be maintained at the current very sound level, with no immediate plans to issue subordinated debt.

  • 3. The unfolding of the global financial crisis during 2008 had its toll on many countries, Jordan was no exception. Its real GDP growth slipped 5 percentage points to reach around 3% in 2009. In 2011, yet another major exogenous shock hit Jordan’s economy, namely; what came to be called the Arab Spring, particularly, the Syrian crisis, which presented major economic, political and social challenges, the effect of which are still present today. In the wake of these unfortunate events, Jordan responded by introducing major political and economic reforms supported by the wise leadership of H.M. King Abdullah II. Political reforms included the establishment of the Constitutional Court and the Independent Commission for Elections. Almost 1/3 of the Constitution was amended by Parliament. Economic reform measures included the withdrawal from generalized subsidies in the energy and water sectors and the redirection of part of the savings to cash transfers that better target the poor and the vulnerable. Further fiscal measures were taken to consolidate Jordan’s fiscal balance. In terms of other structural reforms, Jordan is working on removing rigidities in the labor market and enhancing the business environment and good governance as well as access to finance. In Jordan it is believed that non-economic factors such as the rule of law, freedom of expression, and human rights, are equally important in raising productivity. The government will ensure continual efforts towards maintaining international standards in these areas. Finally, on this point, the rate of return on investment projects should be competitive compared to the rates of return in other countries or other regions. The monetary and fiscal policies are anchored in achieving the levels of interest, inflation and real exchange rates consistent with maintaining competitiveness. The process of reform is not inherently popular and policy choices had to be made. The strong political will and leadership of H.M. King Abdullah II made those reforms possible, facilitating negotiations of all measures with Parliament and other sectors of Jordan’s civil society. In summary, the reforms aim to maintain macroeconomic stability while performing a major transformation in the role of the public sector from providing privileges such as public employment and subsidies to one of providing basic economic services, social protection, better governance and competitive environment for the private sector. 3 Jordan’s Macro Outlook
  • 4. 4 Jordan’s Macro Outlook KeyReformsduring2019 • The authorities have taken several measures and implemented a number of reforms to confront economic challenges, including the adoption of a new income tax law in their efforts to firmly return the combined public deficit to a downward path; reducing it to 2.5% of GDP in 2019. While the country’s fiscal consolidation plan aims to reduce public debt to 77% of gross domestic product by 2021 compared to 94% of GDP at the end of 2018. • The new income tax law expands the tax base in an equitable manner; closes some distortions and loopholes; and helps protect specific sectors severely affected by regional conditions, in addition to critically setting the stage for a greater and much-needed focus on reducing tax evasion in the years ahead. • The steadfast and unwavering implementation of the new income tax law, together with a significant strengthening of tax administration to overcome the marked revenue underperformance of 2018. • These efforts build on the Jordan Economic Growth Plan 2018–22 and are anchored by the five-year reform matrix launched at the 2019 London Initiative. The authorities’ program includes measures in the areas of reducing business costs and enhancing competitiveness, labor market reforms, governance, improved tax collection, and enhanced access to credit. TheLondonInitiative2019 • The initiative is a five-year pathway to unlocking growth, investment and jobs for Jordan, designed by Jordan. The focus is squarely on implementation. It includes three areas where Jordan and the international community can partner together in support of lasting change, a set of implementation principles to guide delivery, and a follow-up mechanism to ensure commitments are fulfilled. • Jordan has set out a credible vision and detailed agenda to achieve economic transformation. HM King Abdullah II articulated an inspiring vision of a self- reliant, prosperous and inclusive country. HM’s vision focuses on economic transformation: moving to private- sector growth powered by Jordan’s highly educated young population moving into jobs in high-end service exports and entrepreneurialism. This is a shift in focus to future- proofed sectors such as professional and business services, logistics, technology and tourism, along with improving education quality to power the economy of tomorrow. • The IMF called on the London conference to unlock much-needed budget grants and concessional financing to support Jordan’s reforms and large financing needs, accentuated by accommodating the many Syrian refugees.
  • 5. • June 2020 marked the Kingdom’s return to the debt capital markets following a 3-year absence, with the largest international Eurobond offering for the Kingdom. A $1.75bn offering comprising $500 mm 5-year and $1.25 bn 10-year tranches re-established new benchmarks with the Kingdom’s first dual-tranche offering. Jordan's conservative and effective banking regulations along with optimistic future expectations played an important role in having a 3.4x oversubscribed orderbook peeking at $6.0bn thus marking the largest orderbook for the Kingdom ever with over 270 investors participated reflecting the global following of the Kingdom’s credit story. The Kingdom’s first dual-tranche Eurobond offering 5 Jordan’s Macro Outlook • Political stability, the rule of law, and empowering all sectors of society has added resilience and optimism to Jordan’s economy. Furthermore, the educated national force in Jordan compliments the business friendly environment and helps attract FDI flows. Most importantly, wise and humane management, at the highest level of governance is a blessing that Jordan enjoys. Finally, Jordan has demonstrated that despite the difficulties inherent in the reform process, and despite the extraordinary burdens due to the Syrian crisis and other regional unrest, reforms can and should be realized, in order to continue to play its positive and moderating role in the region. Looking Forward

JAB will continue addressing NPLs through collections, as well as write-offs and off-balance sheet transfers of legacy loans. • After a slowdown in 2018 and 2019, the 2020 budget calls for renewed growth in both loans and deposits in an attempt to grow market shares in the home market. • Palestine is also a focus market with six new branches added in West Bank in recent years, in an attempt to leverage on the unutilised capital, after fulfilling the increased minimum capital requirement of US75mn in June 2018. • While corporate lending remains a key focus, emphasis will continue to be placed on SME funding (in line with many Jordanian banks), following the incentives granted by the CBJ in the form of soft loans. Exposure to the government through bonds will continue to be high, while financing to GREs will remain negligible. • CAR will be maintained at the current very sound level, with no immediate plans to issue subordinated debt. 61 Jordan Ahli Bank Rating – Capital Intelligence (February 2020)
