Why Islamic Finance and why Hong Kong?

Hong Kong is one of the world’s fastest-growing major economies with an average annualized growth rate of 10% over the last three decades. For generations the territory has been viewed as an important gateway into the People’s Republic of China (PRC), and in more recent times, for Islamic finance. Significantly, changes to legislation have allowed for the issuance of Hong Kong’s first sovereign Sukuk - US$1billion issuance in 2014 - which created an important international benchmark. Hong Kong recently announced its second sovereign Sukuk, thereby demonstrating significant governmental support to Islamic finance industry in Greater China.
