The 4th CIS Islamic Banking and Finance Forum is organized by AlHuda CIBE
The 4th CIS Islamic Banking and Finance Forum, organized by AlHuda Center of Islamic Banking and Economics (CIBE), commenced today at the Hyatt Regency, Regency Ballroom, in Tashkent. The event brought together prominent figures from the Islamic finance sector, including policymakers, industry leaders, and scholars, to discuss the latest trends and opportunities in Shariah-compliant finance.
The forum was inaugurated by the Chief Guest, H.E. Mr. Ahmed Farooq, Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan to Uzbekistan. In his keynote address, he emphasized the growing importance of Islamic finance as an ethical and inclusive alternative to conventional banking. “Islamic finance, with its principles of risk-sharing, transparency, and asset-backing, is not just a religious obligation but a viable economic model that promotes financial justice,” he stated. He also highlighted Pakistan’s success in Islamic banking, where the sector now accounts for nearly 20% of the country’s total banking assets, offering valuable lessons for emerging markets like Uzbekistan.
