Ammon News - The Jordanian Businessmen Association (JBA) and action team of the USAID-funded Economic Reform Activity (ERA) discussed means of developing the project's action plan.

According to a JBA statement released Thursday, the action team, who comprises experts in economic reform from the global consultant company BMCG, briefed the meeting on the goals and aspects of the project's action plan.

Work is underway to hold multiple meetings on economic events representing Jordan's private sector to look firsthand at their vision and proposals on the best practices to bolster economic reform, the team noted.

In addition, the team pointed to USAID's support to achieve Jordan's development goals by updating political and economic reform strategies to achieve prosperity, boost the speed and scale of comprehensive economic development, and manage resources "efficiently."

For his part, JBA Board Member Micheal Nazzal highlighted the JBA's role as a private sector body in supporting economic reform, stressing that enhancing the investment environment and giving the private sector its essential role in development has been an important aim of JBA since its establishment.
