A UK-Jordan trade agreement came into effect at the start of this month, preserving preferential trade for Jordanian and British businesses and consumers, while boosting commerce and investment between the two countries.
Under the deal, the UK said it would prioritise growth, foreign direct investment and job creation into Jordan as part of the 2019 London trade initiative.
“We are working with the Jordanian government to overcome some of the structural issues that prevent greater FDI into Jordan. We are supporting and promoting Jordan’s public-private partnership unit’s work and the national infrastructure projects that were prioritised by the government of Jordan,” the British embassy in Amman and Jordan’s Department for International Trade said in a joint statement.
