Details
Establishing a framework that aligns Environment, Social & Governance (ESG) And sustainability issues with Islamic financial sector practices for increased investment in infrastructure
Islamic finance is growing rapidly across the world. The Islamic finance market currently stands at approximately $1.9 trillion. With this growth, its application has been extended into many areas—trade, real estate, manufacturing, banking, infrastructure, and more.
Infrastructure investment requirements are usually enormous and have long timespans, making them less liquid. It is estimated that investments of US$93 trillion will be needed in sustainable infrastructure projects by 2030 with approximately $40 trillion going to the energy sector, followed by transport at $27 trillion, $19 trillion for water and waste and $7 trillion for the telecom sector.
