Synopsis
Intersection of Shari’ah and Finance in Islamic Finance Facilities
[Morning Session]
IILF Centre Learn from the Expert Seminars are highly interactive. In this morning session, the level of participants’ prior experience with Islamic finance will determine how much time we spend reviewing underlying Islamic principles and traditions which form the basis of Islamic finance. Participants will learn what is meant by Shari’ah-compliance (and Shari’ah-based), and the processes and principles by which approvals are granted by Shari’ah Supervisory Boards, drawing from the primary sources of Islamic law (Shari‘ah) and Islamic commercial jurisprudence (fiqh al-mu‘amalah). A practical familiarity relevant to Islamic finance and investment will be gained with respect to the Islamic law of contracts (e.g. bai‘ al-salam, bai‘ al-inah, bai‘ al-istisna‘), partnerships (mudarabah, musharakah), and other commercial transactions (e.g. murabahah). The morning session will also provide an important introduction to the documentation which will be discussed in the afternoon session.
Documentation and Risk Management for Islamic Finance

The afternoon session of the seminar is a 3½ hour practical discussion of commonly used Islamic banking and finance structures and facilities, including a comparison of Islamic finance structures and contract documents with their conventional finance counterparts.

A detailed overview of risk management for the finance industry is discussed, including key concepts in risk management for Islamic finance institutions, such as management of Shari’ah risk and other issues specifically related to defaults.
