Best bank: Arab Bank |
Amman is the somewhat unexpected home of what, by some measures, is the largest bank in the Middle East – Arab Bank.
The bank maintains a large regional network, with substantial operations in Egypt, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Syria, United Arab Emirates and Qatar. This provides it with a more diverse income than those of its Jordanian competitors. Moreover, other markets in the Middle East make Jordan’s 6% GDP growth rate look sluggish.
Arab Bank Group’s net income has grown by 25% over the past year.
