Jordan: Services, value added (constant LCU)

Key figures

Over five years it is up 13.94% from 20.9 billion in 2020 (2.64% a year on average, compounded). Since 1976 it is up 685.07% from 3.03 billion in 1976 (4.29% a year on average, compounded).

What the numbers say

In 2025, Jordan's services, value added (constant LCU) rose 2% on 2024 (from 23.36 billion to 23.81 billion).

Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1995 to 2024), the average change was +4.1% and a typical year strayed about 2.3% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.9 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 20% in 1979 and the biggest yearly fall was 13.6% in 1989. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2016 to 2025 the straight-line trend is upward, about 445.64 million a year. A straight line explains 97% of the movement over 10 observed years.

A straight-line projection, tested first

Extending that straight line gives about 25.04 billion for 2028. We show this only because the same method, fitted on earlier years, predicted 2023 to 2025 better than "no change" would have: its average miss was 225.72 million, against 1.06 billion for assuming no change. Treat it as a continuation of the recent pattern, not a forecast of events: it cannot see a recession, a policy change or a revision to the data.

What this measures

Services industries correspond to ISIC (Rev. 4) divisions 45-99 and includes wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor vehicles, hotels and restaurants, transport, storage and communication, financial intermediation, real estate, renting and business activities, public administration and defence, compulsory social security, education, health and social work, other community, social and personal service activities, private households with employed persons, and extra-territorial organizations and bodies. Value added is the contribution to the economy by a producer or an industry or an institutional sector, which is estimated by the total value of output produced and deducting the total value of intermediate consumption of goods and services used to produce that output. This indicator is expressed in constant prices, meaning the series has been adjusted to account for price changes over time. The reference year for this adjustment varies by country. This series is expressed in local currency units.
