BahrainABOUT THE EVENT
His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates and Ruler of Dubai’s vision and support of IIFF continues to mark Dubai and the UAE as the leader in the global Islamic finance industry.
As I’m sure you’ll agree that IIFF – Dubai 2009 comes at a crucial time, as the industry seeks out signposts to chart the way ahead in a new economic era. Islamic finance currently accounts for about 1% of the global market. Some had been forecasting a rise to 12% by 2025. That level could now be reached much faster. The virtual collapse of confidence in the conventional finance sector represents a huge opportunity for the Islamic finance sector. The changed conditions brought about by the financial meltdown are already prompting more countries to recognise and adopt Islamic principles in their economies.
As you are aware, Islamic investors have not been immune from the global equity market sell-off, with millions of dollars wiped off the value of Shari’ah-compliant equities worldwide during the third quarter of 2008 alone. But as global economies have lurched from one crisis to another, the fact that the Islamic finance industry is asset based and not debt financed has protected the sector from the runaway collapse that has brought the
downfall of conventional financial giants.The ugly side of conventional finance has been laid bare. Islamic finance is more conservative and sober in its approach – the very attributes upon which the global financial system needs to be rebuilt.
Islamic finance cannot however, rest on its past laurels. In periods of uncertainty, standards of risk management, governance, sustainability and transparency must be seen to be sound and stable. IIFF – Dubai will address the challenges and opportunities presented by the new global financial era and the increasingly important role the Islamic finance industry can play.
Highlighting the growing appetite for Islamic products among all clients, the theme and topics for IIFF – Dubai have been meticulously researched enabling you to strengthen your understanding of the concepts, mechanisms and regulations governing what is set to become the most promising financial sector both for Muslims and non-Muslims in these turbulent times.
Pioneering international Islamic finance practitioners and the world’s leading Islamic scholars will converge in Dubai from 26 – 30 April 2009 for IIFF – Dubai, the most important networking event in the Islamic finance industry calendar.
As participants, you will not only hear from some of the leading minds in the industry, but you will be able to put questions to the experts and take part in lively debates. The programme has been designed to include as many networking opportunities as possible to enable you to share your goals, challenges and experiences with the conference faculty as well as your peers.
