Chairman Letter
Dear Madams And Sirs,
In my Name and on behalf of all our Board Members, I am pleased to present to you Jordan Ahli
Bank’s Corporate Responsibility Report for the year 2013. The report sheds light on the bank’s role
as a proactive initiator of corporate responsibility efforts that have a radiating effect throughout the
community. In this report, we highlighted the bank’s ability to positively adapt to various changes on
both local and regional levels by raising awareness on pressing social issues.
In 2013, we strove to strengthen our contributions in the field of social development by stressing the
positive impact our CSR initiatives had on spearheading desired positive developmental change. Our
responses to the community’s social needs fall in line with our well-versed strategy for high-level social
involvement. Through our endeavors, we strove to comply with modern CSR trends, while believing
in the pivotal role CSR involvement plays in enhancing different social sectors. We achieved our goals
through partnering with different civil society organizations, together raising awareness and prioritizing
objectives in response to the community’s social development needs.
With this understanding, we focused on adopting CSR initiatives that tackle poverty, unemployment,
and youth development. For this segment in particular, we concentrated on enhancing youth
empowerment with the aim of supporting entrepreneurial efforts, youth productivity, and enhancing
youth competitiveness in the market. We also made great efforts to advance the empowerment of
women, while also supporting causes that promise further protection for the environment.
At Jordan Ahli Bank, we had been distributing our efforts to ensure the proliferation of a proactive CSR
culture and deeper communal collaboration. To achieve this goal, we implemented well-structured
yearly plans that comply with the bank’s social interests and community outreach goals. We set out to
widen the demographic benefiting from our CSR programs, as these programs are designed to reflect the
bank’s future vision. I, therefore, invite you to take a look at the report in order to learn more about the
bank’s overall contribution to the community.
In closing, I want to thank all our shareholders, partners, civil society organizations working with us,
and other relevant parties for their contributions to the bank’s developmental journey forward, and for
helping Jordan Ahli Bank make strides toward creating greater understanding of CSR and its lasting
collective impact. Last but not least, I thank the team at Jordan Ahli Bank for their contributions to the
success of our social and developmental endeavors.

Chief Executive Letter
Dear Madams And Sirs,
I am pleased to present you with Jordan Ahli Bank’s Corporate Responsibility Report for the year 2013,
which embodies our vision of spearheading sustainable development by being a shining example of a
socially responsible organization. Over the past year, we have made substantial strides towards realizing
positive changes affecting various clusters of the community, guided by an unwavering commitment to
bolster the positive impact of our activities on the economy, the environment and the fabric of our society.
To that end, 2013 saw Jordan Ahli Bank maintain its involvement in various activities and initiatives
geared towards delivering a lasting impact, building on its rich track record of achievements in the arena
of social development.
In our continued commitment to supporting the youth sector in the Kingdom and to fostering a culture
of innovation, Jordan Ahli Bank sponsored a considerable number of conferences that brought together
innovators to share ideas and experiences with the hope of shedding light on the many inert talents and
abilities present within the community. We also sponsored a number of workshops that tackled issues such as
worker rights and the legal framework of the job market with the objective of supporting the establishment of
a healthy foundation for economic development. The bank also sponsored a number of activities relating to
the education sector as part of its long-term efforts to serve as a key contributor in education reform.
It is worth noting here that Jordan Ahli Bank has been reinforcing activities targeting SMEs, stemming
from our bank belief in the critical role played by this segment in sustainable economic development,
particularly when it comes to the creation of employment opportunities and the delivery of added value
to the local economy. The bank has continued to offer both financial and non-financial services to local
SMEs through various channels, primarily the Ahli Microfinance Company, which has garnered the King
Abdullah II Award for Excellence.
On the environmental preservation front, Jordan Ahli Bank adopted a number of initiatives geared
towards realizing a greener Jordan. One product launched by the bank in this regard is Ahli’s Go Green
Loan, which was conceived with the objective of promoting eco-friendly products.
In 2013, the bank also continued its efforts to empower women and reinforce their role within the community.
The bank boasts one of the highest percentages of female workers in the Kingdom, which reached 40 percent
as of last year. Children are also key beneficiaries in our various corporate responsibility endeavors, with
a substantial portion of our initiatives seeking to address the various problems faced by underprivileged
families nationwide, the victims of which are most often children. The bank also played a considerable role in
supporting Syrian refugees through its collaboration with the UN’s World Food Programme.
In closing, I would like to reiterate Jordan Ahli Bank’s commitment to remaining at the forefront of
socially responsible organizations, with the grander objective of broadening the positive impact of our
activities to reach as many segments of the community as possible. We will also continue to foster a
socially responsible internal culture, in line with our slogan “The Power of Change.”

About the Report
Our Journey Towards Sustainability
“We transform the sole of our corporate
responsibilities to realities on the ground”
Since our establishment, we at Jordan Ahli
Bank have been committed to contributing to
sustainable developmental efforts, and we have
carried out our corporate responsibilities, which
are founded on several pillars. These pillars
look into the economic, social, human, and
environmental impact of our operations.
The content of this Corporate Responsibility
(CR) Report is a transparent assessment of our
CR efforts and our operations for the year ending
December 31st 2013. It offers a full assessment
of the impact our work has had on the economy,
the community, and the environment we are part
of. It looks at our role as enhancers of human
resources, and it identifies the issues challenging
our developmental efforts, while highlighting
how the operational procedures and practices we
follow have enabled us to achieve our goals.
This report is a measuring tool enabling us
to evaluate the advancements we had made,
whereby our review of our 2013 achievements
will enable us to identify a ramped CR direction
with focus areas aligned with our vision and
business strategy for the years to come.
Our Vision for Corporate Responsibility
The review process for this report is founded on
pre-identified indicators that are of the highest
significance to the business and the bank’s
stakeholders. The indicators selected for this
approach have been prioritized according to the
bank’s corporate outlook and our key areas of
focus for the coming years. The data has been
compiled based on surveys, questionnaires and
records of direct engagement with the bank’s
direct and indirect stakeholders.
Through the findings we make, we strive to steer
our scope of work towards further sustainable
and greener development. We are guided by
our vision and our commitment to being a
corporate responsible entity that is socially
and environmentally conscious, and one that
is also concerned with the issues affecting our
community. We are doing our part for creating
further developmental opportunities for Jordan,
ensuring that our contributions go beyond
enriching the financial sector.
Our 2020 Strategy
In line with our 2020 vision to become a
recognized pioneer across the Middle East,
we have adopted a new CR strategy to be
implemented as of the current year 2014,
through which we hope to see measurable
positive changes. Our benchmarks are broken
down into the following stages:
2020: to be recognized on a regional scale as a
trendsetter with strong global ties
2015:to be one of the leading banks in terms of
market share, profitability, market positioning,
corporate image, brand equity, and innovation
within our target markets.
2014: to maintain our sustainability by ensuring
our clients’ satisfaction and contributing to
sustainable development within the community.

“Making our mark on the financial field
and local development”

achieving operational growth internally and
on the development of the financial sector at
large. We directly and indirectly supported
the advancement of several community
segments by being a financial and economic
advisor for bothindividualclients as well as
corporate clients of all segments and sizes.
We offered a wide range of sustainable,
responsible, and innovative financial
solutions, developed so that they comply
with changing market demands.
Through our products and services, we
contributed to the long term growth and
profitability of our clients’ operations and
in turn added our mark to the sustainable
development of our national economy.
We also invested in the enhancement of
our corporate structure, the training of
our human resources, and our technical
capacities, and we adopted several indicators
to measure our growth.
Our Indicators
To achieve our goals, we set clear indicators
for ourselves. These indicators help us
realize our high standards of leadership,
our financial goals, and our contributions to
the community. We evaluate our ability to
achieve innovative leadership to effectively
and strategically manage our operations, our
people and our resources in accordance with
modern standards of excellence. Achieving
these goals will help us contribute to
sustainable development.
Offering Segmented Services for Our Clients
We strove to provide our clients with a full
range of financial solutions tailored to fit
their needs. To achieve this goal, we had
segmented our products so that they fit in
one of three banking sectors: retail, SME,
and corporate banking. Within these sectors
we had made several achievements, which
collectively contributed to our market share
reaching 6.05 percent in 2013, while our
indirect market share reached 6.64 percent.
These figures are a result of the different
programs, promotions, and products we had
introduced, segmented by sector as seen in

of our offerings were newly introduced in the
year 2013 and others were further enhanced
in line withour goals for maintaining economic
sustainability and development. Through our

offer practical and useful financial solutions
for individuals across all sectors, and today our

We were committed to making our products

Our Responsible Products and Services
We continued to spearhead responsible
development within the financial sector
last year, driven by our goal of maintaining
sustainable economic development on a large
scale. We were guided by our new vision to be
a financial institution that is environmentally
conscious, socially responsible and an asset to
the economy. We translated our visions into
actions by introducing a range of financial
solutions geared toward bringing about
economic change, economic empowerment,
and positive reform in the community at large.
These services include:
1- The Green Loan
Promoting eco-friendly practices
The Green loan is the first of its kind to be
introduced in Jordan, designed to fund green
projects and products for the benefit of smaller
companies and individuals. It is offered with a
0% interest to encourage both the availability
of eco-friendly products in the market and the
wider adoption of greener practices amongst
citizens. In the long run, such program will
contribute to the protection of Jordan’s natural
resources and the conservation of energy for
future generations. It is introduced as part
of our commitment to our clients and our
community for offering financial solutions that
are sustainable and corporately responsible.
13
The Green Loan is offered in collaboration
with a network of companies that provide
eco-friendly products, including green lighting,
solar panels, and other services that benefit
individuals and SMEs. This service comes with
100% funding and a loan repayment period
with installments payable over 48 months.
By launching this loan, we have included
citizens and corporations in our objective of
contributing to environmental sustainability.
2- The Pre-Paid MasterCard in Support of
Syrian Refugees in Jordan
Through our strategic partnership with
MasterCard and the UN’s World Food
Program, we have introduced the Pre—Paid
MasterCard from Jordan Ahli Bank for the
benefit of Syrian refugees. The card was
conceived with the objective of allowing
refugees to acquire basic products and services
to secure a good quality of life, while also
reducing the impact of the hardships they faces
in light of the current Syrian crisis.
This prepaid card was also conceived to
provide a practical and innovative solution to
be used in various CSR initiatives, offering its
beneficiaries in the Zaatari Refugee camp aid
and relief in a fast, efficient, convenient and
dignified manner. On a larger scale, Jordan
Ahli Bank is also contributing to the Kingdom’s
efforts to sustain this added demographic to
its population, providing innovative financial
solutions tailor-made to meet its needs.
3- The Pre-Paid MasterCard in Support of
Less Fortunate Jordanian Families
In collaboration with Save the Children, we
have launched the Pre-Paid MasterCard in
support of less fortunate families in Jordan.
This initiative builds on our continued efforts
to devise efficient solutions for the obstacles
facing our fellow citizens and to empower the
less fortunate by helping them secure their
basic living needs. On a larger scale, we are
doing our part in spearheading positive change
and sustainable development in Jordan.
4- The Bank Check for the Beneficiaries of
Caritas International in Jordan
We have issued bank checks for the benefit of
Iraqi and Syrian refugees receiving aid from
Caritas International in Jordan. These checks

empowerment and appreciation of our team, and we invest in training new recruits and existing team members.
We continued to work within our Fast Track
program to foster the capacities of distinguished
team members.
We continued to enhance our team's corporate capacities and talents, with a focus on cultivating unflinching
professionalism.This, of course, was met with an equal attention toincentives through our High Flyers program that
was conceived on the principle of motivational job rotation.
We continued to support the career development of our employees, vertically through a series of promotions and
horizontally through various job enrichment strategies and training programs. The following figures highlight our
development in this area further, offering comparative figures between 2012 and 2013.
We continued to develop comprehensive training
programs geared toward new recruits joining new
branches inaugurated in 2013.

Supporting Women and Helping
them Reach Senior Managerial
Positions in the Bank
‫‏‬We launched several training programs that target university
students. Our aim through such programs was to link academic
education with the local job market and its demands. We also
offered special facilities for students.
‫‏‬We made substantial strides in our support for women in the
workplace, giving them influential roles within the organization.
We offered our female employees the opportunity to take on
managerial positions, develop their careers, enhance their skills and
talents and contribute to the corporate decision making process.

‫‏‬We enhanced the spirit of volunteerism within our
team, transforming the concept from a sense of duty
to one motivated by empathy, thus enhancing their
leadership and communication skills.
‫‏‬We developed strategic initiatives that created
volunteering opportunities tailored to fit our team and
their individual objectives.
‫‏‬We involved the team in CSR initiatives, including:
1- Forestation efforts and the planting of 500 trees in
the Beereen Forest.
2- Celebrating World Environment Day and launching a
clean-up campaign for the Dead Sea public beach.
‫‏‬We raised the number of female employees in the bank
to 526 in 2013, constituting 40% of the workforce.
‫‏‬We launched several programs targeting women.
‫‏‬We honored women on Mother's Day by giving them
gifts and recognizing our female staff members who
have spent many years working with us.
‫‏‬The bank continues to include women with
unconventional qualifications or rare majors in its
workforce, including investment specialists and others.
‫‏‬InvolvingtheTeaminCSRPrograms
‫‏‬In 2013, we continued to encourage our team members
to volunteer their skills and time during working hours to
benefit the various segments of the community targeted
by our CSR initiatives, thus offering them the opportunity
to express their individual values that fall in line with
both our corporate and national identity. Promoting a
culture of collaborative involvement was and continues
to be a critical element of our sustainable development
efforts, through which we seek to differentiate ourselves
within the industry and the private sector as a whole.
The results were both perceptible and favorable, as our
team is increasingly showing initiative when it comes to
serving their local community.
39
‫‏‬EmployeeSatisfaction
‫‏‬In 2013, we continued working to enhance the levels
of employee satisfaction within our group, which
led to several positive outcomes. These included
a drop in the number of unexplained absences in
2013, in comparison to 33% in 2012. It is our sincere
belief that total quality management is not only
dependent on what we offer our customers and
community, but is rather more directly influenced
by the care, motivation, development opportunities
and recognition we offer our team members. In
our relationship with our team, we adopt several
unwavering values including trust, credibility and
fairness. We also take their changing needs and
personal objectives into account by launching
satisfaction surveys and ongoing studies of the work
environment we cultivate.

  • 3. 2 Chairman Letter Dear Madams And Sirs, In my Name and on behalf of all our Board Members, I am pleased to present to you Jordan Ahli Bank’s Corporate Responsibility Report for the year 2013. The report sheds light on the bank’s role as a proactive initiator of corporate responsibility efforts that have a radiating effect throughout the community. In this report, we highlighted the bank’s ability to positively adapt to various changes on both local and regional levels by raising awareness on pressing social issues. In 2013, we strove to strengthen our contributions in the field of social development by stressing the positive impact our CSR initiatives had on spearheading desired positive developmental change. Our responses to the community’s social needs fall in line with our well-versed strategy for high-level social involvement. Through our endeavors, we strove to comply with modern CSR trends, while believing in the pivotal role CSR involvement plays in enhancing different social sectors. We achieved our goals through partnering with different civil society organizations, together raising awareness and prioritizing objectives in response to the community’s social development needs. With this understanding, we focused on adopting CSR initiatives that tackle poverty, unemployment, and youth development. For this segment in particular, we concentrated on enhancing youth empowerment with the aim of supporting entrepreneurial efforts, youth productivity, and enhancing youth competitiveness in the market. We also made great efforts to advance the empowerment of women, while also supporting causes that promise further protection for the environment. At Jordan Ahli Bank, we had been distributing our efforts to ensure the proliferation of a proactive CSR culture and deeper communal collaboration. To achieve this goal, we implemented well-structured yearly plans that comply with the bank’s social interests and community outreach goals. We set out to widen the demographic benefiting from our CSR programs, as these programs are designed to reflect the bank’s future vision. I, therefore, invite you to take a look at the report in order to learn more about the bank’s overall contribution to the community. In closing, I want to thank all our shareholders, partners, civil society organizations working with us, and other relevant parties for their contributions to the bank’s developmental journey forward, and for helping Jordan Ahli Bank make strides toward creating greater understanding of CSR and its lasting collective impact. Last but not least, I thank the team at Jordan Ahli Bank for their contributions to the success of our social and developmental endeavors. Dr. Rajai Muasher
  • 4. 3 Chief Executive Letter Dear Madams And Sirs, I am pleased to present you with Jordan Ahli Bank’s Corporate Responsibility Report for the year 2013, which embodies our vision of spearheading sustainable development by being a shining example of a socially responsible organization. Over the past year, we have made substantial strides towards realizing positive changes affecting various clusters of the community, guided by an unwavering commitment to bolster the positive impact of our activities on the economy, the environment and the fabric of our society. To that end, 2013 saw Jordan Ahli Bank maintain its involvement in various activities and initiatives geared towards delivering a lasting impact, building on its rich track record of achievements in the arena of social development. In our continued commitment to supporting the youth sector in the Kingdom and to fostering a culture of innovation, Jordan Ahli Bank sponsored a considerable number of conferences that brought together innovators to share ideas and experiences with the hope of shedding light on the many inert talents and abilities present within the community. We also sponsored a number of workshops that tackled issues such as worker rights and the legal framework of the job market with the objective of supporting the establishment of a healthy foundation for economic development. The bank also sponsored a number of activities relating to the education sector as part of its long-term efforts to serve as a key contributor in education reform. It is worth noting here that Jordan Ahli Bank has been reinforcing activities targeting SMEs, stemming from our bank belief in the critical role played by this segment in sustainable economic development, particularly when it comes to the creation of employment opportunities and the delivery of added value to the local economy. The bank has continued to offer both financial and non-financial services to local SMEs through various channels, primarily the Ahli Microfinance Company, which has garnered the King Abdullah II Award for Excellence. On the environmental preservation front, Jordan Ahli Bank adopted a number of initiatives geared towards realizing a greener Jordan. One product launched by the bank in this regard is Ahli’s Go Green Loan, which was conceived with the objective of promoting eco-friendly products. In 2013, the bank also continued its efforts to empower women and reinforce their role within the community. The bank boasts one of the highest percentages of female workers in the Kingdom, which reached 40 percent as of last year. Children are also key beneficiaries in our various corporate responsibility endeavors, with a substantial portion of our initiatives seeking to address the various problems faced by underprivileged families nationwide, the victims of which are most often children. The bank also played a considerable role in supporting Syrian refugees through its collaboration with the UN’s World Food Programme. In closing, I would like to reiterate Jordan Ahli Bank’s commitment to remaining at the forefront of socially responsible organizations, with the grander objective of broadening the positive impact of our activities to reach as many segments of the community as possible. We will also continue to foster a socially responsible internal culture, in line with our slogan “The Power of Change.” Marwan Awad
