Description
Islamic Asset Management: An Asset Class on Its Own? The Islamic asset management industry has experienced significant growth, with over 700 funds now listed in major databases and estimated assets under management reaching around $70 billion. This book provides an in-depth review of the industry, including the types of funds available and their operational procedures. While there are differences between conventional and Islamic asset management, these do not appear to have a significant impact on fund performance. Shari'ah compliant funds offer an attractive alternative for both Muslim and non-Muslim investors. The book covers key aspects such as fund structures, investment instruments, operational issues, and the role of the Shari'ah Supervisory Board. Key features include case studies of popular funds, a glossary of abbreviations and key Arabic terms, making this book relevant to investors and practitioners in the industry, as well as those interested in investing based on Islamic principles.
