Reviews “Islamic Finance: A Guide for International Business and Investment serves as a comprehensive guide; be it to a novice wanting to learn the basics of Islamic finance or even to the experienced practitioner, who is looking for a refresher course. Written by the most notable practitioners from the top institutions in the industry, this guide has managed to cover the most crucial sectors in the industry such as Syndicated and Structured Finance, Capital Markets, Retail Banking, Commercial Real Estate and Project Financing and even Takaful (Islamic Insurance concept). The flow of each chapter, which begins with the introduction to Islamic Finance and ends with the Regulatory issues, is almost seamless, not only making it an easy read but providing an excellent insight into the fundamentals and the latest development sof Islamic finance.” Raphael Wong, editor of Islamic Finance news. "Designed as a guide for global business and investment, this book aims to equip readers with a basic understanding of the principles and current practice of Islamic banking and Sharia-compliant finance. This Global Market Briefings publication has particular relevance in the current climate, with the failure of derivatives-based markets tending to make Islamic financial instruments more widespread. This is a worthwhile read for financial professionals and students alike". Securities & Investment Review, February 2009.
