Islamic Finance (3rd ed.)

Demand for Sharia-compliant finance and an increasing alignment between Islamic finance and the global ethical finance movement has led to unprecedented and accelerating growth within the sector. This is evidenced not only by the Islamic finance market’s size, but also by the growing number of Islamic finance providers beyond banks, and the increasing diversity of products and services. Sharia-compliant funds and takaful (Islamic insurance) have emerged as substantial markets in their own right.
