Acara itu juga  merupakan kerjasama antara Kantor Bank Indonesia Cirebon dengan ASBISINDO Wilayah Cirebon.

Selain itu, Riawan juga  menambahkan,  sistem perbankan yang berlaku untuk siapa saja, tidak hanya milik orang Islam tetapi milik semua manusia karena hakikatnya semua manusia menginginkan perlakuan yang sama, keadilan, keberkahan dll.

Sebagaimana juga riba tidak hanya dilarang dalam Alqur'an tetapi juga dalam kitab2 agama samawi lainnya .

Menurutnya  kesempurnaan ekonomi syariah dalam  perbankan syariah tidak akan berkembang signifikan tanpa dukungan real dari pemerintah. Maka itulah peran pemerintah sangat penting. (Agus)
