  12. SINGAPORE – Bloomberg KATRINA NICHOLAS Tuesday, October 27, 2009 Global standards for Islamic derivatives contracts may be published as soon as December, helping companies and investors manage risk more effectively, according to the International Swaps and Derivatives Association. The New York-based ISDA, which represents more than 830 organizations active in the $592 trillion derivatives market, started working on its Shariah-compliant master agreement with the Bahrain-based International Islamic Financial Market in 2006. The first version of their framework will focus on swaps for profit-rate and currency transactions, Shirvani said. Islamic finance is the fastest-growing segment of the global financial system with $919 billion of assets under management, including $114 billion of Shariah- compliant bonds, known as sukuk, Prudential Financial said on Oct. 7. Assets will grow to as much as $1.1 trillion this year, Kuwait Finance House KSC forecast in July, as the world emerges from recession and a recovery in oil prices boosts Arab wealth. Derivatives are financial instruments derived from stocks, bonds, loans, currencies and commodities, or linked to specific events like changes in the weather or interest rates. Global body writes standards for Islamic derivatives

  16. Islamic Banking Grows, With All Sorts of Rules Hugh Pope. Wall Street Journal.  May 3, 2005. In the past decade, Islamic banking has matured from a tiny, sometimes controversial backwater into an important current of global finance, especially as Western bankers and borrowers compete for the new funds gushing into the Persian Gulf because of higher oil revenue. A Citigroup Inc. unit now operates what is effectively the world's largest Islamic bank in terms of transactions. Some $6 billion of Citibank deals now have been structured and marketed in conformance with Islamic laws since starting out in 1996. HSBC Holdings PLC, Deutsche Bank AG, ABN Amro Holding NV, SocieteGenerale SA, BNP Paribas and Standard Chartered also have established Islamic banking units in the past few years.

  17. WORLD ISLAMIC BANKING COMPETITIVENESS REPORT 2005' RELEASED Al Bawaba. London: Dec 11, 2005 In 2004 Islamic Banks continued to grow much faster than their respective conventional counterparts. However, despite some improvements, the profitability of Islamic banks generally remained below that of their conventional peers. This gap will increasingly be high on the agenda of Islamic Bank CEOs: the current high valuation of Islamic banks indicates strong market expectations for future growth and profits. If Islamic banks are to capture this opportunity, appealing to a broader consumer base will be key. So far Islamic banks have managed to capture customers who have a strong preference for Shari'ah- compliant products. Going forward, they will have to broaden their appeal to customers who are interested in Shari'ah-compliant products but are not ready to sacrifice returns, service or convenience.

  18. Islamic Banks’ share of commercial bank deposits, late 1990s These numbers do not include the ‘Islamic window’ in other (conventional) banks. No Islamic banks in Iraq (under S. Hussein), Libya, Morocco, Oman, and Syria, apparently because the government owned all banks. No mention of Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Philippines  Source: Henry and Wilson (2004) The Politics of Islamic Finance (p. 7) UMD HG 187.4 P6 2004
