World Finance Islamic Finance Awards 2023

A list of the companies awarded in the World Finance Islamic Finance awards 2023 can be seen below.

The Islamic finance industry is expected to grow by around 10 percent in 2023 into next year and, as Moody’s reports, Sukuk issuance is set to “rise sharply in 2023”. Issuance last year was postponed “because of capital market volatility, companies seeking to refinance near-term sukuk maturities and first-time rated sukuk issuers looking to diversify funding sources,” said Rehan Akbar, a Moody’s Senior Vice President. Demand for Sharia-compliant financing is high and growth is expected in several areas despite an economic slowdown in other major markets. There is also significant growth potential with green sukuk issuance with many Islamic banks adopting sustainability plans. World Finance celebrates those who have led the way to this positive outlook in its Islamic Finance Awards.
