Meethaq, as part of its long standing commitment to Islamic finance, will be welcoming global leaders to Muscat to discuss the way forward for the industry's further development, both within Oman and the wider region.
The two-day gathering will bring senior industry figures, global investors, takaful operators, and bankers, as well as top Sharia scholars. The topics will focus on the newly created opportunities in Oman and other countries in the wider region new to Islamic finance.
Specifically, the forum will discuss the current state of the sukuk market, new opportunities for takaful providers, winning strategies for distributing funds; and the issues faced by new Islamic banks in Oman, such as asset-liability management, treasury and interbank money markets.
Giving the keynote address will be Dr Mahathir Mohamad, former Prime Minister of Malaysia. Throughout his tenure as Prime Minister, between 1981 and 2003, Mahathir was a strong supporter of the global development of the Islamic finance Industry.
Dr Baker said, "Hosting informative events is an ideal way to greet a new market. With so much education required in our field, we felt that bringing many of our industry friends together and hosting a conference would help us to meet many new friends and help get people talking about new possibilities and collaborations."
