Event Review
The event was a highly informative overview of Islamic Finance with reference to Islamic Financial theory as well as comparisons with conventional debt-based economies. Delegates asked lots of questions and clearly found the talk interesting and useful. Based on the success of this event we will look into the possibility of holding another event on real estate finance as this was a particularly popular area of discussion.
