Jordan Securities Commission hosts Jordan Judicial Institute student delegation to strengthen cooperation with judicial authorities

The Jordan Securities Commission hosted a student delegation from the Jordan Judicial Institute during a 20–21 January field visit to the Amman Stock Exchange and the Securities Depository Center, aimed at familiarising the delegation with market institutions’ operations and recent legislative and regulatory developments. The visit was positioned as part of efforts to enhance communication and cooperation with judicial authorities, with a view to accelerating litigation processes and supporting investor protection. The programme included briefings on the Commission’s working mechanism and its supervisory and regulatory role, including the powers and tasks of the Board of Commissioners, the entities subject to oversight, and the use of statutory tools such as inspection, audit, investigation, and immediate and administrative measures for violations of the Securities Law and related regulations and instructions. The delegation also received an overview of the scope of the Securities Law, key rules governing licensees, the guarantees provided by licensees and the Investors Protection Fund in Securities, legislation regulating Islamic finance sukuk, and the framework for regulating and monitoring the issuance and registration of securities, including capital-raising methods, subscription rights, and the Issuance Directorate’s electronic transformation. The Commission noted that it regularly receives local and international student delegations to support investment culture and broader engagement with different segments of society.
