  • Qatar: Monday, December 17 - 2012 at 00:35

Islamic Bank of Britain (IBB), majority-owned by Qatar International Islamic Bank, has said a deadline for a Qatari bank to decide on a proposed takeover offer had been extended to January, Reuters has reported. The UK's only Shari'ah-compliant retail lender has been in discussions since June with Qatari lender Masraf Al Rayan to sell a controlling stake in the British bank. A deadline for Masraf to announce a firm intention to make an offer for IBB lapsed on December 10 and has now been extended to January 7.
