We'd love to hear about the different investment options available for expats: how to invest in Jordan or in your home country, explore international options or use online accounts.

To kick off the discussion, here are some guiding questions:

In your opinion, what are the advantages and disadvantages of investing internationally ? How is your experience with international investments?

What specific points should you consider regarding your investments as an expat (exchange rate management, international tax obligations or repatriation of funds)?

Do you use specialized banking services for expats, such as multi-currency accounts? What are the pros of these services and how do they help you with your finances?

How is the property market for expats? Are there any specific regulations or aspects we should be aware of when investing in real estate in Jordan?

Hi Cheryl, love your post!


Since I came to Jordan, my income has been from investments that I make usually in the field of technology but also with some small businesses.


I try to always have cash on hand, in fact prefer not to keep money in the bank.


I think CBDC (digital currency) is coming but hopefully not too fast.


I think it's good to invest in some gold and silver as this is the best hedge against inflation.


I have heard the real estate market is slow. Also it is harder also harder to have loans as the banks are more and more cautious.


I have heard a lot of people who study the markets and trends who say that the best investment is food and water and also agricultural projects.
