This volume discusses the role and characteristics of Islamic
finance and how it can contribute to a sustainable financial
system. Islamic finance is not only for the 1.5 billion Muslims.
Several countries are interested in it because it has interesting
characteristics in terms of transparency and banking regulation.
Although the origins of Islamic finance date back several
centuries, its resurgence is relatively recent. From its modern
beginnings in Egypt and Malaysia, Islamic finance is now a growing
sector and its recent performance contrasts with that of
conventional banks. Rapid growth and innovation are transforming
the sector, driving economic development in an increasing number of
jurisdictions, while also increasing the number of new
opportunities and challenges. Today, with the problem of climate
change and its adverse effects on the whole world, the flexibility
of Islamic finance concerning the operations available to those who
wish to finance the development of infrastructure, makes this area
crucial for sustainable finance.
