Central Bank of Jordan Circular No. 5/2025 on Data Protection Officer Appointment Mechanism
The Central Bank of Jordan mandates that banks operating in the Kingdom appoint an internal Data Protection Supervisor and notify the regulator before the individual begins duties. Banks must submit a certified declaration to the Banking Supervision Department by the end of the third quarter of 2025, confirming the supervisor's appointment, independence, and qualifications. The circular requires banks to report any separation of the supervisor and ensures the Audit Committee of foreign bank branches oversees these responsibilities.
