Al-Safadi highlighted that during the first quarter of 2024, the Bank Group managed to maintain an outstanding level of return on assets and shareholders equity, reaching 1.74% and 11.6% respectively. This reflects the operational efficiency of the Bank and the optimal utilization of available resources, as well as effective management of assets and liabilities.
Al-Safadi also indicated that the Bank Group was able to achieve strong growth in its net credit facilities at the end of the first quarter of 2024 by 7.0%, to reach JD 4.8 billion by the end of March 2024. Such growth was reflected positively on the operational profit and the Bank’s market share.

Additionally, the Bank sustained a solid capital base, with total shareholders’ equity reaching JD1.4 billion. The capital adequacy ratio stood at 18.5% as of the end of the first quarter of the current year, which is well above the requirements set by the Central Bank of Jordan and the Basel Committee.
Al-safadi affirmed that the Bank will continue its digital innovation strategy where global best practices and the latest trends are being adopted with the sole purpose of fulfilling the customers’ satisfaction through anticipating their needs and providing them with the best available banking services.
