IFN Qatar OnAir Roadshow 2022

#IFNQATAR2022

About The Roadshow

This is the 3rd IFN Qatar event.

Qatar’s’ Islamic banking industry, with four fully-fledged Islamic banks, enjoyed 26.1% of the total market share of global Islamic banking assets as at the third quarter of 2019.

The four Takaful operators enjoy a 45% domestic market share.

Abroad, QIIB founded Umnia Bank in Morocco, while Masraf Al Rayan-owned Al Rayan Investment is working on establishing a fintech-based Islamic bank in Kazakhstan.

Islamic fintech is an area of focus, with Qatar Fintech Hub launching incubator programs to develop fintech start-ups focusing on Islamic finance, including Takatech and Shariah compliant cryptocurrency.

Qatar remains a global leader for the Islamic finance industry and with its sturdy regulations and progressive regulators, its position is not in jeopardy.

An Introduction to 2022

2022 – READY TO REBOOT

Welcome to the IFN OnAir Roadshow 2022.

Following the hugely successful IFN OnAir Roadshow 2021 we are delighted to announce an extended series for 2022.

The past two years have been difficult for many. For the first time in almost a century, the world ground to a halt, meaning minimal physical interaction, and a shuddering halt to B2B events as we knew them.

At REDmoney, we went online, building a new platform allowing us to deliver virtual events to our readers and followers around the world. And, although OnAir events don’t allow for face-to-face meetings and that personal interaction we all enjoy, there’s very much a place for them moving forwards, and this is recognized through the IFN OnAir Roadshow visiting a series of key markets in 2022.

These are all key markets in the world of Islamic finance, and we believe will be significant participants in the coming years and are delighted to deliver these events in a virtual format.

The IFN OnAir Roadshow is a series of online roundtables, recorded and produced for the IFN global audience to enjoy. As the Islamic finance industry’s leading media and events company; these events will retain their exclusivity and unmatched reach.

#IFNFORUMS2022

Roadshow Agenda

Fulfilling Potential: Islamic Financial Services in Qatar

With notable consolidation in recent years, what is a realistic assessment of the current Qatari Islamic financial services ecosystem, including banking and Takaful, and what opportunities and challenges now present themselves for the sector? With Qatar emerging as a leading Islamic fintech centre, how significant is the work of the Qatar FinTech Hub’s acceleration and incubation programs, and what other important initiatives are now taking shape in the country? With Qatar also looking to bolster its status as a Sukuk issuance hub, what steps can the country take to make Sukuk a mainstream financing option for corporate and financial institutions? How are Shariah compliant funding options being employed for infrastructure and large-scale projects in Qatar, and what is the potential for private sector financing of Islamic sustainable infrastructure, energy and tourism projects?

Panelist:

Mourad Ali Mizouri, MENA region Senior Division Manager (Business Development), The Islamic Corporation for the Insurance of Investment and Export Credit (ICIEC)
