Islamic Business & Finance Awards 2013

The Islamic Business & Finance Awards are the most important annual event for the global Islamic financial community.

Bringing together more than 300 senior Islamic financiers to celebrate and award the most innovative and successful Islamic institutions. 

The Islamic Business & Finance Awards were established in 2005. The aim of the process is to recognise the best performing institutions in a variety of regions where Islamic finance is either already developed or is rapidly expanding. The event is truly global and attracts nominations and submissions from Europe, Americas, Africa, Middle East and Asia. 

A panel of judges are invited to nominate institutions across up to 40 categories and based on their industry expertise a short list is formed. At this point all registered users of CPI Financial products are invite to cast a vote and select the eventual winners.

In a financial sector with so much potential to grow within domestic markets but also internationally it is important to give the Islamic finance sector a platform where this burgeoning industry can come together and celebrate the success it is witnessing.
