SUMMARY:World Islamic Economics & Finance Conference (WIEFC 2026)
DESCRIPTION:World Islamic Economics & Finance Conference (WIEFC 2026)\nConference Theme: \n“Envisioning the Next Frontier in Islamic Economics & Finance: AI Transformation and Geopolitical Realignments” \nThe 9th World Islamic Economic Forum Conference (WIEFC) 2026 invites scholars\, practitioners\, policymakers\, and students to critically evaluate the evolving trajectory of Islamic Economics and Finance in an era marked by rapid global transformation. As artificial intelligence (AI) accelerates\, geopolitical realignments intensify\, and protectionist trade policies reshape economic priorities\, financial systems\, and governance structures\, Islamic economics and finance stand at a decisive crossroads. Building upon the insights from previous WIEFC conferences (2018–2025)\, this year’s theme examines whether current theoretical and practical developments remain authentically aligned with foundational Islamic principles while adapting to modern complexities. The conference will explore how Muslim-majority countries can navigate external disruptions and internal socio-economic challenges by developing Islamic financial systems that are technologically agile\, geopolitically aware\, and ethically grounded. Key discussions will address the Islamization of national economies\, the future of the Islamic finance industry within shifting global frameworks\, and the strategic steps required to build resilient\, inclusive\, and value-driven financial architectures capable of advancing shared prosperity across the Islamic world and beyond. In particular\, the conference will address questions and topics such as: \nSub-Themes: \n\nBanking on the Future: Islamic Banking and Fintech Innovations in Global Realignment\nEthical AI Governance and Maqāṣid Integration in Islamic Economic Systems\nAI and Islamic Macroeconomics: Policy Responses to Geopolitical Realignments\nSustainable Finance: ESG-AI Convergence in Islamic Financial Instruments\nAdaptive Takaful Models: AI-Enabled Risk Management amid Geopolitical Shifts\nShaping Islamic Capital Markets with AI Analytics in a Multipolar World\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDisclaimer: \nIslamic Finance Daily (IFD) strives to list authentic and up-to-date Islamic finance events by sourcing information directly from official websites\, organizers\, and public announcements.

SUMMARY:AAOIFI-IsDB 20th Annual Islamic Banking and Finance Conference 2025
DESCRIPTION:“Islamic Finance in the Era of Artificial Intelligence: Present Potentials and Future Prospects”\n\n  \nThe 20th edition of the AAOIFI-IsDB Islamic Finance and Banking Conference will address the most pressing issues and latest developments in the global economy that are reshaping how Islamic financial institutions and other stakeholders respond to transformative forces\, particularly artificial intelligence (AI) in multiple areas such as business operations\, Shari’ah compliance and the mobilisation of human and technological resources. \nIn the meantime\, the newly emerging forces and advancements are observed to carry certain critical and ethical concerns related to fairness\, transparency and accountability in AI-driven finance. Therefore\, it has become essential to assess the way Islamic finance industry can adopt new technologies in promoting inclusive and sustainable economic growth\, while remaining aligned with the objectives of Maqasid Al-Shari’ah. \nIn a rapidly evolving business and regulatory landscape\, this edition of the conference also aims to emphasise on the importance of practical understanding of Islamic finance particularly for empowerment of individuals and professionals to attain the basic knowledge and skills necessary not only to engage in the field\, but also to embrace its ethical principles and integrate it into everyday operations and decision-making. \nAdditionally\, the conference will highlight the importance of raising awareness about the value proposition of Islamic finance among micro\, small\, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs). \nWith Islamic banking claiming the lion’s share in terms of the financing provided to different economic sectors\, the need arises for enhancing awareness of the value proposition of Islamic finance\, through its other venues\, by providing financing to MSMEs as a cost effective and affordably accessible alternative to the traditional financial intermediation. This includes the access that can be provided to MSMEs by Islamic capital markets through a variety of products and services\, as well as the main Shari’ah compliant financing solutions offered to MSMEs for promoting and strengthening of their activities. \nOn a corresponding note\, it will lay hands on the key business and regulatory challenges hindering a wider deployment and utilisation of these techniques.

SUMMARY:AAOIFI-SECP Islamic Capital Markets Conference 2023
DESCRIPTION:AAOIFI-SECP Islamic Capital Markets Conference 2023\nPreamble:\nThe unprecedented growth of Islamic finance globally has made it a $3.06 trillion industry. The share of Islamic banking is around 69 per cent while Islamic capital markets accounts of 30 per cent and Takaful holds less than 1 per cent market share. Within the capital markets\, Sukuk accounts for more than 25 per cent of the market share and remains the most developed and active sector. However\, there are other products within the Islamic capital markets that need to be further developed\, in particular the Islamic equity market (some of which have been introduced in some countries)\, which can play an important role in the overall development of the Islamic finance industry globally.\nThe size of the Islamic finance industry in Pakistan is also estimated to have surpassed $42 billion at the end of 1Q22. The exponential growth of Islamic finance in Pakistan has posed\, among other challenges\, capacity-building and awareness-creation challenges for the financial market regulators.\nThe Islamic capital market in Pakistan is witnessing renewed interest in Sukuk issuances and the growth of Islamic mutual funds\, pension funds\, and REITs. Non-banking institutions like Modarabas\, Housing Finance Companies\, Microfinance Companies\, and other companies offering Islamic financial services\, including Takaful and window takaful operators\, are making inroads in the Islamic financial services industry in Pakistan. Collectively\, these are completing the required Islamic finance system in the country\, thereby paving the way for the Islamization of the economy.\nFurthermore\, in the recent judgement of the Federal Shariat Court of Pakistan (FSC)\, it has been held that “Riba or interest is prohibited in Islam\, including relating to banking transactions\,” and it has been directed that the Federal and Provincial Governments complete the necessary legislative amendments in the impugned laws in order to bring such laws or provisions of the laws into conformity with the injunctions of Islam by December 31\, 2027. The Government of Pakistan has also constituted a Steering Committee for providing strategic guidance regarding the implementation of the FSC’s judgement.\nRecently\, SECP has launched a comprehensive diagnostic report on non-bank Islamic finance in Pakistan\, and as a result\, a comprehensive action plan has been formulated to address key issues\, take strategically important steps\, and pave the way for the transformation of the Islamic financial system in the country in light of the constitutional requirement and the above-referred FSC’s judgment.\n ICM Conference: \nIn this backdrop and given the increased need for the development of Islamic capital markets globally\, AAOIFI will be organising a dedicated annual conference on Islamic capital markets (ICM). The first of these conferences will be organized in collaboration with and hosted by the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) in Islamabad in May 2023. The theme of the first conference is “ICM development with ecosystem completion: innovation\, growth\, and transformation.” The conference shall have local partners including Pakistan Stock Exchange\, National Clearing Company\, Central Depository Company\, AI Meezan Investments\, IBA-CEIF\, and other Islamic fund managers\, Takaful operators\, Modaraba institutions\, the corporate sector\, and non-banking financial institutions.\nIt has been envisaged to invite dignitaries from both the public and private sectors\, including the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) and the Ministry of Finance\, the Board of Investment\, Islamic banking institutions\, the Islamic capital market\, and the Takaful industry\, apart from country representatives from the Asian Development Bank (ADB)\, the World Bank\, and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). From the global arena\, participation of delegates from the AAOIFI\, the Islamic Financial Services Board (IFSB)\, SC Malaysia\, BNM Malaysia\, INCEIF\, IsDB\, ISRA\, CMB Turkey\, SEO Iran\, etc.\, may also be invited.\nDisclaimer:\nIslamic Finance Daily (IFD) strives to list authentic and up-to-date Islamic finance events by sourcing information directly from official websites\, organizers\, and public announcements.

DESCRIPTION:AAOIFI – World Bank 12th Annual Conference 2017\nTowards Qualitative growth and standardization of Islamic Finance  \n5-6 November 2017\, Diplomat Hotel\, Manama\, Kingdom of Bahrain\nSelf-evident is the high and rapidly increasing growth rate of the Islamic finance industry\, in terms of asset base\, scope of financing\, and diversity of products as well as geographic spread across Islamic countries and other countries\, in addition to the its sophisticated infrastructure and relevant regulations and regimes. All these manifestations have become irrefutably solid facts and realities. In the midst of accompanying jubilation and elation\, the current stage would require an increased emphasis on the “qualitative” development of the Islamic finance industry\, as might be reflected in its products’ compliance with Shari’ah and its supreme objectives (Maqasid) and noble cause\, and a further level of governance and transparency. The industry needs to be further elevated\, professionally and institutionally\, at the international level\, through the development of more professional standards to govern and regulate all its activities and areas of interest and enhance the levels of global adoption and recognition.\nIn this regard\, the 12th  edition of AAOIFI-World Bank Conference sheds light on this particular potential from different angles through the lenses of a host of leading experts and scholars\, representatives of central banks and regulatory and supervisory authorities\, and practitioners.\nDisclaimer:\nIslamic Finance Daily (IFD) strives to list authentic and up-to-date Islamic finance events by sourcing information directly from official websites\, organizers\, and public announcements.
