WIBC ASIA 2014

What the Industry Leaders are saying about WIBC Asia 2014

”Industry leaders are looking to boost cross-border growth opportunities in Islamic finance - and Asia is considered as one of the fastest growing markets for Islamic finance. The demand for Islamic finance products will continue to grow not only due to the recovery in global economic activities, but also due to more supportive regulatory policies and more sovereign and corporate issuers tapping into Sukuk. Many of the high growth potential markets in the global economy are in the Islamic world and this economic growth in key markets across Asia, the Middle East, Central Asia and North Africa will further boost the Islamic finance

industry. With its strong links to the real economy Islamic finance has a key role to play in the development needs of these countries and Asia, with its sustained growth levels, has tremendous opportunities to further boost cross-border capital and trade flows with the Middle East. Al Baraka Banking Group has for many years remained a strong supporter of the annual World Islamic Banking Conference: Global Summit (WIBC Global) in Bahrain and this year we are delighted to be supporting the World Islamic Banking Conference: Asia Summit (WIBC Asia) and we look forward to meeting key industry leaders in Asia to explore opportunities for Islamic finance to bridge the high growth economies of Asia and the Middle East.”

Adnan Ahmed YousifPresident & Chief Executive

Al Baraka Banking Group

“The Sukuk market continues to be one of the thriving forms of Islamic finance, evidenced in its rapid growth over the past few years, especially in the core markets of Southeast Asia and the Middle East. The international footprint of Sukuk has also expanded with many new sovereign and corporate issuers from new countries looking to tap the market. However, there remain several challenges to the further development of the market that leading industry players are now addressing to ensure greater international connectedness between the major markets for Islamic finance. The World Islamic Banking Conference: Asia Summit is

an invaluable forum for bringing together thought leaders in the Islamic banking space and provides a platform for the international industry to drive its future progress. OCBC Al-Amin is delighted to be part of the World Islamic Banking Conference: Asia Summit and we are looking forward to contributing to the conversation at this important gathering.”

Syed Abdull Aziz Jailani bin Syed KechikDirector and CEO

OCBC Al-Amin Bank Berhad

”Islamic finance has further advanced its position as a mainstream value proposition with an increasingly global presence. That said, we as an industry still face many challenges of a new kid on the block. There is a need to increase the scale of business locally. There is a need to prepare our products and services to adapt and comply with more robust regulatory and risk frameworks. There is a need to enhance our talent pool. There is a need for people to accept us as a commercial endeavour instead of a religious one. There is a need to focus on doing the business instead of just talking about what is Shariah compliant and not compliant.

There is a need to build international linkages through absolute acceptance and respect of all the different Islamic finance undertaking done under various Shariah school of laws in different jurisdictions to further accelerate its development as a public good that delivers true economic value.

Mutual discussion and information sharing is all well and good but market traction and market share is where the rubber meets the road, where we find out how good we really are. In our experience, this summit has provided a valuable opportunity and ideal platform for industry practitioners be they customers, players, regulators & industry observers to openly and transparently discuss the issues frankly and progressively. CIMB Islamic is once again delighted to be a part of the World Islamic Banking Conference: Asia Summit and we look forward to fostering new business relationships between the key growth markets of Islamic finance.”

An Exclusive Onstage Interview with

”Key markets in Asia and the Middle East are now witnessing rapid economic growth and expansion which in turn brings the need for responsive investment banking and capital markets. To cater to the evolving needs of end-users and to build new capabilities, it is essential for the Islamic finance industry to develop new financial products and services that support both mature and new markets. This in turn requires strong integration and economic inter-linkages between the key markets for Islamic finance. Islamic banks need to build international connectivity and scalable platforms that can connect with businesses and

financial institutions beyond borders. Achieving greater international connectivity enables greater scope for expanding the boundaries of Islamic finance. The World Islamic Banking Conference: Asia Summit has over the last 5 years established itself as a collaborative platform for bringing together industry leaders from key regions to share their knowledge and experience to provide new insights into how Islamic finance can make the most of exciting new cross-border opportunities. With our focus on Asia and the Arabian Gulf, the Islamic Bank of Asia is keen to explore the opportunities arising out of the growing connectivity between these two high-growth markets, and we are once again delighted to be supporting the World Islamic Banking Conference: Asia Summit (WIBC Asia).”

”Despite uncertainty within the global financial markets over the last 12 months, quantitative easing in the United States, a marked slowdown of growth in China and deep restructuring in the Euro-Zone, the Islamic banking industry has seen yet another bumper year in terms of growth and resilience.

An even more encouraging sign we see today is the industry’s efforts to globalize, reflecting increased understanding and appetite from industry players and investors globally. The

announcement of UK and Hong Kong sovereign Sukuk are testament of an industry entering a new phase of growth. However, in order to support and ensure sustainable growth within the non-natural markets internationally, there must be more emphasis on cohesion, consistency and transparency, and in increasing international linkages via increased cross-border capital market transactions, and anchoring domestic driven gains.

Maybank Islamic is proud to be a continuing partner of the annual World Islamic Banking Conference: Asia Summit. The international platform is opportune for the policy makers, industry practitioners and market participants to converge, reflect and to have the right debates on this years apt theme of “Bridging the World of Islamic Finance: Expanding the Boundaries of Islamic Finance: Complementing Domestic Growth with International Linkages”.”

“Islamic finance continues to experience exciting progress in both the leading established markets as well as new emerging jurisdictions. The increase in trade flows between Asia and the Middle East, combined with growing awareness and support for Islamic finance as a genuine alternative to conventional banking, highlights the potential for even more significant growth in the global Islamic finance market. However, regulatory frameworks continue to develop at different paces across various jurisdictions and it is becoming increasingly vital that collaborative efforts are made across the industry to ensure more

successful global connectedness. Islamic finance is an integral part of Standard Chartered’s business and we remain committed to the development of the industry on an international basis. We are delighted to be part of the 5th Annual World Islamic Banking Conference: Asia Summit, which has over the years become an important platform for the industry leaders to share their knowledge and experience from the two key established geographies for Islamic finance: Asia and the Middle East - and into new emerging opportunities in markets in Africa and beyond.”
