The Jordanian-Iraqi Finance and Business Forum, organized by the Iraqi Business Council, is set to commence on Tuesday in Amman under the theme 'Building Bridges of Shared Prosperity'.
The forum serves as a pivotal economic platform aimed at advancing trade, industrial, and investment relations between Jordan and Iraq, with a primary objective of fostering a new phase of cooperation and mutual benefits, aligning with the interests of the two nations.
Engaging in focused dialogue sessions, forum participants will explore investment opportunities within the financial and banking sector, examine the investment environment, discuss regulations and guidelines governing investments in Iraq and Jordan, and delve into investment prospects in the industrial sector, energy, mining, real estate development projects, transportation, services, communications, and information technology.
In a statement on Monday, the Chairman of the forum’s preparatory committee, Saad Naji, indicated that the event stems from the visionary goals of His Majesty King Abdullah II and the Iraqi leadership, which prioritize achieving economic integration between the two countries. Furthermore, it aims to expand the horizons of mutual cooperation, particularly in the domains of investment, trade, and industry.
The 2-day forum will bring together a select group of distinguished businessmen, investors, and governmental and parliamentary figures from Jordan and Iraq, as well as local and international companies, private sector institutions, United Nations organizations, and international bodies.
Naji, who is also the Deputy Chairman of the Iraqi Business Council, emphasized the forum's core objectives, including the enhancement of investment across various sectors, facilitation of trade exchanges between Jordan and Iraq, establishment of collaborative partnerships, and comprehensive discussions on the challenges hindering economic development between the two nations.
'Furthermore, the forum will facilitate bilateral meetings and a company exhibition on the sidelines, providing a specialized audience with the opportunity to showcase products, services, and notable advancements. This initiative aims to forge new distribution channels that contribute to increased trade exchanges and the expansion of mutual goods between Jordan and Iraq,' he added.
