The dynamic sector spanning 75 countries and growing at an annual rate of 15% is the Islamic Investment and Financial Management market.
The dedicated and daily updated Islamic Finance pages of the leading business and finance news portal zawya.com are sponsored by the Institute for International Research (IIR) in recognition of the growing importance of Shari'ah compliant finance in the world economy.
The Islamic Finance pages can be visited at: www.zawya.com/iiff
"There has been phenomenal growth in the world of Islamic Finance in only a few short years. With well over US$200 billion currently under Islamic management, it is a sector that cannot be ignored," said Chris Mullinger, event director of the International Islamic Finance Forum.
The Middle East offices of IIR in Dubai are the organisers, in association with Dow Jones Indexes, of the forum series which has rapidly established itself as the leading business-to-business event in Islamic finance.
Zawya.com has one of the highest hit rates in the Middle East and around half of all users of this highly informative portal have banking and financial backgrounds.
IIR is the leading organiser of business events in the Middle East and North Africa, specializing in conferences, exhibitions and training across a wide range of industries.
As well as news, the Islamic Finance pages of zawya.com will provide industry spotlights, special reports on the state of Islamic finance, interviews with leading Islamic finance practitioners and a regular poll on issues in Islamic finance. The pages will be written and moderated by zawya.com's Chief Editor, Clare Woodcraft, who will bring new developments within the industry to the site.
In addition, there will be updates of the International Islamic Finance Forum series the next of which will be held this July in Geneva, Switzerland, with the sponsorship of Faisal Finance and Oasis Global Asset Management.
Zawya.com is the official Internet partner for the Geneva forum and The Wall Street Journal Europe is the official media partner.
