JORDAN - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
Jordan's economy is among the smallest in the Middle East, with insufficient supplies of water, oil, and other natural resources, underlying the government's heavy reliance on foreign assistance. Other economic challenges for the government include chronic high rates of poverty, unemployment and underemployment, budget and current account deficits, and government debt.
King ABDALLAH, during the first decade of the 2000s, implemented significant economic reforms, such as expanding foreign trade and privatizing state-owned companies that attracted foreign investment and contributed to average annual economic growth of 8% for 2004 through 2008. The global economic slowdown and regional turmoil contributed to slower growth from 2010 to 2017 - with growth averaging 2.6% per year - and hurt export-oriented sectors, construction, and tourism. Since the onset of the civil war in Syria and resulting refugee crisis, one of Jordan’s most pressing socioeconomic challenges has been managing the influx of 650,000 UN-registered refugees, more than 80% of whom live in Jordan’s urban areas. Jordan’s own official census estimated the refugee number at 1.3 million as of early 2016.
Jordan is nearly completely dependent on imported energy—mostly natural gas—and energy consistently makes up 25-30 percent of Jordan’s imports. To diversify its energy mix, Jordan has secured several contracts for liquefied natural gas and is currently exploring nuclear power generation, exploitation of abundant oil shale reserves and renewable technologies, as well as the import of Israeli offshore gas. In August 2016, Jordan and the IMF agreed to a $723 million Extended Fund Facility that aims to build on the three-year, $2.1 billion IMF program that ended in August 2015 with the goal of helping Jordan correct budgetary and balance of payments imbalances

GDP
growth moderated during 2015 to an estimated 2.4 %, the slowest pace in four
years, magnifying already-high unemployment.
Security spill overs from regional conflict worsened, negatively impacting
tourism, construction, investment and trade. However, growth in a number of
sectors held up well through the third quarter of 2015, including in finance
and insurance services, transport, storage and communications, electricity and
water, and mining and quarrying. Unemployment rose to 13.0 % in 2015, an
increase of 1.1 % age points relative to 2014. There was a mild deflation for
most of 2015 due to further falls in global oil prices, a weakened Euro, a
negative output gap, and easing of supply side pressures experienced in
previous years (notably on housing prices, due to the large influx of refugees
in 2012-13). Monetary policy remained expansionary with the central bank
reducing the key policy lending rate by 125 basis points during the course of
2015. International reserves slightly rose to $ 14.2 billion (7.5 months of
imports) by end-2015.
The
fiscal deficit was narrower in 2015 thanks to lower expenditures and lower transfers
to the National Electric Power Company (NEPCO),
which outweighed the fall in domestic revenues and grants. NEPCO resorted to
borrowing from commercial banks instead of the government in 2015 providing a
7.0 % of GDP relief to the fiscal balance, without which the fiscal deficit
would have widened. NEPCO’s debt continues to be government guaranteed and
combined with the fiscal deficit and slowing GDP growth contributed to pushing
the gross debt to GDP ratio to an estimated 93 % at end-2015.
The current
account deficit is expected to have widened in 2015, mainly due to lower public
transfers and a 7.1 % fall in tourism receipts, and despite a narrowing trade
deficit. The merchandise trade balance
narrowed by 14 % on account of a 40.4 % fall in energy imports. These
outweighed a 7.1 % contraction of direct exports (themselves buttressed by 10.9
% growth in phosphate exports) affected by land trade route closures with Syria
and Iraq, traditionally Jordan’s largest export partner. Remittances are slowing,
growing by only 1.5 % during 2015.
Growth
is expected to improve to 3.0 % in 2016, assuming no further worsening in the
regional security situation and associated spill overs. This is driven by an expansion in mining and
quarrying sector and positive base effect of tourism and construction sectors.
Jordan is working towards an Extended Fund Facility (EFF) with the IMF. The EFF
is anticipated to support further fiscal consolidation efforts in parallel with
growth-enhancing and job-creating structural reforms. The baseline growth
forecasts assume agreement on an EFF leading to a fiscal adjustment and a lower
debt-to-GDP level. The balance of risks is on the downside. Managing
repercussions from the regional security and political situation is a key risk in
addition to the challenges of hosting a substantial number of Syrian refugees.
Additionally, persistently low oil prices are a risk this year and in the
medium term, given their potential impact on remittances, exports, FDI and
grants from the GCC. Fiscal adjustment measures are likely to be difficult.
Furthermore, the willingness and speed of reform implementation particularly to
improve the business climate will be crucial to meet the country’s investment
aspirations.
