Jordan Islamic Bank won the award for the best Islamic financial institution in Jordan for the year 2024 from Global Finance, an international magazine based in New York, for the fifteenth time. This came in its announcement of its annual awards for the best Islamic financial institutions in the world for the year 2024, to highlight the most important achievements achieved in contributing to the growth and development of Islamic finance.
