The regulator depends on the financial activity, but the Central Bank of Jordan is the core regulator for banking, payments and money-transfer fintech and operates Jordan’s fintech regulatory sandbox. Other financial activities can fall under their own sector regulators.

Regulator: Central Bank of Jordan (CBJ) / other sector regulator as applicable
