Published every Friday, Islamic Finance news is the industry’s leading, capital markets focused e-newsletter now providing over 12,500 individuals with unrivaled editorial coverage of the global Islamic financing market.
Islamic Finance news provides insightful and intelligent editorial coverage from around the world, helping you stay ahead. Industry professionals and leading academics contribute via non-biased, educational and up-to-date country and sector reports, giving you first-hand knowledge and understanding of the Islamic finance markets and instruments from the specialist’s point of view.
Over the past five years the Islamic finance industry has grown at a pace many thought impossible. With a market growth rate of 22.5% in 2007 alone it’s certainly here to stay.
2008 witnessed some of the most turbulent times on record for the global financial markets. Such names as Merrill Lynch, Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers were swallowed up following colossal debts incurred during the on-going mortgage crisis.
The Islamic finance industry, however, came through practically unscathed, in large due to its vigorous screening processes and stringent corporate governance practices, making it the envy of the world. Yet another reason why the traditionally conventional financial markets are taking a closer look at their Islamic counterparts.
Islamic finance is reaching out to new markets and participants each week, and it’s with these in mind that the 2nd Islamic Finance news Roadshow dates have now been announced.
In 2009, we will tour 8 key developing Islamic financial markets around the world. Six return trips following the hugely successful 2008 Roadshow, and two new locations added; with practitioners and regulators alike, all requesting their country be placed on the agenda for 2009.
If you are involved or have an interest in the Islamic finance industry, then this is for you.
