For ahli bank, sustainability is not a secondary concern, it is a central pillar of long-term value creation, risk management, and corporate resilience. We believe that for companies to remain competitive and trusted, boards and executive teams must demonstrate unwavering commitment to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles, not as a branding exercise but as a strategic imperative. As such, ahli bank was the first bank in Jordan, and one of the first in the region, to issue GRI certified sustainability reports. Also, Jordan Ahli Bank became the first national bank to establish a Strategy & Sustainability sub-committee within its board, aimed at overseeing ESG matters and integrating sustainability into fundamental business decisions, including capital allocation, supply chain integrity, talent development, and climate risk management. In addition, comprehensive ESG reporting enhances transparency and accountability, enabling investors, regulators, and stakeholders to evaluate not only financial performance but also the impact of Jordan Ahli Bank on society and the environment. As global standards evolve and expectations rise, it is the board’s responsibility to champion a forward-looking, integrated ESG strategy that aligns with stakeholder interests in a rapidly changing world.

The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) provides the most widely adopted sustainability reporting framework, offering companies a standardized, transparent, and stakeholder-centric approach to disclosing ESG performance. Our board and executive teams demonstrate a strong commitment to sustainability by actively overseeing GRI-aligned reporting. We ensure that key issues—such as climate impact, human rights, labor practices, and business ethics—are recognized, assessed, and transparently reported with integrity. By aligning with GRI Standards, we hope that ahli bank will not only fulfill regulatory and investor expectations, but also foster trust with employees, customers, and communities. Our ultimate objective is to build transparency that enhances reputational capital and enables data-driven dialogue with stakeholders, guiding more responsible and resilient corporate strategies. When our board of directors embedded GRI principles into our governance and organizational structure, we signaled a shift from reactive compliance to proactive leadership in shaping a sustainable future in the world of finance.

We encourage you all to read our sustainability reports, and to also provide us with feedback on how we can continue to improve our ESG impact.
