About The Seminar

This 1-day course provides an in-depth analysis of financial and non-financial risks which impact Sukuk.

The course comes at an opportune time. In June, 2017, Abu Dhabi-listed company, Dana Gas, announced it would stop payments on its Sukuk on the grounds of Shari’a impermissibility. It proposed that creditors instead exchange the Sukuk for new Islamic instruments with a far lower profit rate. This announcement dealt a devastating blow to the Sukuk industry, and highlighted the risky nature of investing in financial instruments sold into a less mature global capital market which continues to undergo significant development as it evolves.

This course on Sukuk risk starts by briefly explaining the different structures of Sukuk instruments used for funding and investment purposes in order to identify how these structures create risk. It then moves on to analyse the most important risks in depth, and provide practical insights into how to manage them. These risks include

  • Credit risk
  • Market risk
  • Liquidity risk
  • Accounting risks

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

  • Know and understand the key risks inherent in various types of Sukuk instruments
  • Appreciate why Sukuk risk is very different to conventional bond risk
  • Know and understand how to manage Sukuk risks to safeguard against loss
