ScreenIslamiQ is now featured on leading regional portals, including Maktoob.com, AMEInfo, Dubaiquiz.com, arab2invest.com and Imanlink.com, thus opening up the product to the wider Middle Eastern market.
IslamiQ, the first online company dedicated to meeting the Islamic investment and financial needs of the global Muslim community, launched ScreenIslamiQ in August 2001.
ScreenIslamiQ, identifies listed companies across US and UK exchanges that comply with Shari'ah principles. For the first time ScreenIslamiQ empowers individual investors to identify and monitor the Shari'ah status of stocks themselves, offering unprecedented coverage with access to more than 8,000 stocks.
Subscribers can opt for one of three annual subscription packages, choosing either UK or US markets or access to all markets. While ScreenIslamiQ currently covers the AMEX, NYSE, NASDAQ and LSE exchanges, IslamiQ plans to expand coverage to more markets in the near future.
"We are very pleased with this development. By cooperating with these portals, IslamiQ will secure a much wider market access for the ScreenIslamiQ service, while the portals will be able to provide a unique Islamic investment tool to their members and visitors," commented IslamiQ's CEO, Dr. Hasnita Hashim, on the tie up between IslamiQ and leading regional portals.
