Industrial development issues are often related to investment process in Jordan. The study highlights how financial inflation affects decisions of investment of most industrial companies in Jordan.

To acquire the important information that helped to justify the study hypothesis, a question. To confirm the direct investment decisions and inflation relationship, Pearson's Correlation Test formula was used in this analysis.
