Book description
"
Islamic Finance: The Regulatory Challenge
…is therefore timely and a truly welcome addition to the growing
literature on this subject…I congratulate the two professors for their
fine contribution to the evolving art and science of the regulation of
Islamic finance."
-Dr. Zeti Akhtar Aziz
, Governor, Bank Negara Malaysia
"The World's financial
regulators have taken too long to appreciate the importance of
adapting their regulatory frameworks to the needs of the fast growing
Islamic finance sector. Simon Archer and Rifaat Ahmed, the leaders in
the field, have put together a fascinating collection of essays which
show just what has to be done. It is a very timely book
indeed."
-Howard Davies, Director, London School of Economics
"The emergence of Islamic finance as a major force in the world
financial system has focused attention on regulatory issues. This
book, edited by Professor Archer and Professor Rifaat, two of the most
respected figures in the field, is an important point of reference for
those who have to deal with these issues, whether in regulatory
authorities, or in the financial institutions
themselves."
-Professor William Blair QC, Grays
Inn, London
"There is now great interest, both in financial and legal
circles, in reliable and authoritative texts on Islamic finance. I
have no doubt that the availability of Islamic Finance: The
Regulatory Challenge will be warmly welcomed by those who
provide financial and legal services. The work will be of great
assistance to them."
-The Rt Hon the Lord Woolf of
Barnes, Law Lord and former Lord Chief Justice of England &
Wales
