LONDON ISLAMIC FINANCE SUMMER SCHOOL
Current policy issues and solutions in Islamic finance
8-12 August 2016 | University Square Stratford, London E15 1NF
Dear Colleague,
I am writing to draw your attention to this innovative new London event in the Islamic Finance Calendar and invite your participation as a company or as an individual.
Together we can create an important international exchange on current thinking and advice to governments and regulators and update the global community on live issues in Islamic Finance.
In this international London event we will examine live issues with practitioners and together make recommendations to banking and finance policy makers and regulators in government around the globe. The participation of leading organisations and individuals like yourself and your colleagues will make this possible and will enable a powerful exchange and networking event in London.
I would urge you to consider attending or ensuring clients or staff, especially those based in London, attend the event, to keep up to date and make an input to the most challenging developments in Islamic Finance.
