Islamic Structured & Syndicated Finance
A Two-Part, Online Course
Date: 27th & 28th June 2022
Syndicated Islamic finance refers to a form of financing where two or more Islamic financial institutions combine to participate in a financing deal, with each providing a portion of the financing amount. As seen in conventional syndicated finance, the participating financial institutions in an Islamic syndicated finance will appoint a lead bank who is responsible for the syndication, coordinating the process of preparing and finalizing the documentation and closing the finance deal. This concise, practitioner-led course will discuss these roles in detail.
Structured Islamic finance, on the other hand, has no precise definition. Generally, it involves the packaging together of various legal structures to produce a bespoke financial product or solution. The starting point will be to analyse the commercial objectives of the client and their activities. Once those are identified, it is then a question of examining the possible Shariah compliant financing techniques and undertaking any necessary due diligence, which can extend to matters such as legal research, tax analysis and a review of any underlying assets that are to be employed in the Islamic financing deal.
Specific knowledge and skills are required for professionals to handle and execute complex structured and syndicated financing in accordance with Shariah requirements. This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed understanding of structured and syndicated Islamic financing, how financial institutions manage these important transactions, and how significant challenges can be overcome. The course has been designed for practitioners who wish to understand how to design, develop, execute and deliver structured and syndicated Islamic financing transactions. The program will provide instruction on how to establish, design and manage these transactions in accordance with Shariah, legal, tax, commercial and market requirements. The course is highly interactive with case studies and real-life challenges and provides delegates ample opportunity to raise questions and discuss challenges and solutions.
