Estimating the effects of FDI on the performance of Jordan's banks listed on the Amman Stock Exchange
by Mohamed Ibrahim Ahmad Mugableh
International Journal of Monetary Economics and Finance (IJMEF), Vol. 17, No. 6, 2024

Abstract: The current paper estimates the effects of foreign direct investment (FDI) on the financial performance (return on equity and the size of deposits) of Jordan's banks listed on the Amman Stock Exchange over the (2015-2021) period. The analysis is carried out using the fixed effect model via the EViews13 software package. The paper found that there is a significant and positive relationship between FDI and each of the return on equity and the size of deposits at the 5% level. The study recommends that policymakers should focus more on attracting FDI into Jordan and developing the necessary infrastructures, which would increase economic growth rates, and shrink unemployment rates.
