Opportunities
in Islamic Investing
In recent years, there has been tremendous growth in
Islamic investing in an effort to meet the needs of
Muslims for Shariah-approved investment choices. One
recent offering - the Islamic multi-investment fund
- is unusual in that it is the first Islamic investment
vehicle to give clients more than one way to invest.
In this interview, Dr Mahmoud El-Helw, President
of Faisal Finance, discusses how the Fund intends to
meet investors' needs for both strong performance results
and religious correctness.
