During the last two decades, the Islamic finance industry has grown tremendously, not only in countries with majority Muslim populations in the East, but also in well-established secular financial centers in the West.
This has highlighted the commercial wisdom of Islamic Finance principles as well as the ethical standards it espouses. Along with growth, the Islamic Financial institutions have experienced a fair share of challenges as well.
In particular, risks relating to governance, compliance, transparency,
liquidity and exposure to limited asset classes have been long-debated by industry experts. KPMG in Saudi Arabia has been playing an active role in the development of the Islamic Finance industry.
