Download or read book Shari a Compliant Private Equity written by Shahzad Siddiqui and published by . This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the 1st English language contribution to the global Islamic finance literature which is focused solely on Islamic private equity. Given the success of conventional private equity players and their demise during the credit crisis, it is instructive for executives of all levels to see how Islamic private equity can assist their businesses while avoiding the faultlines that led to recent demise of the conventional private equity system. Shariah-Compliant Private Equity, comprised of 10 chapters and 20 private equity case studies, is designed for the executive who wishes to access Shari'a-compliant private equity, launch a private equity fund, convert an existing fund into an Islamic equivalent, identify potential partners in the global private equity space, or simply to understand more about this type of private equity. In a broad yet detailed sweep of Islamic private equity, this book answers critical questions about the current private equity industry: The history of Islamic private equity and its relevance to the contemporary, post-crisis global economy. The closeness of Islamic private equity and de-leveraged conventional private equity. How to establish an Islamic private equity fund. How one conducts due diligence in Islamic private equity (with sample document checklist and Shari'a screens). What role Islamic private equity can play in fostering the environmental revolution. How basic business issues like information technology and insurance play out in Islamic private equity firms. How entrepreneurs craft business plans to appeal to the Shari'a-sensitive investor or investment firm. The case studies in the book bring these questions, and their potential answers, to life. There are several case studies, both actual and potential, on connecting Middle Eastern private capital with promising opportunities in the Western World and emergent China, 'the Middle Kingdom.' By way of example, there is a case study on a new Islamic private equity firm focused on financial services worldwide, which was seeded by sovereign wealth funds, specialist investment vehicles and high-net worth individuals. There is a case study on a plan to save the Big 3 U.S automakers, using Islamic private equity and sukuk, on the heels of a Vatican article which stated sukuk could be used to save the ailing car industry and finance the Olympic Games in London. There are also practical case studies on small businesses like restaurants seeking private equity funding and more whimsical studies on the buying and selling of polo ponies.

Download or read book An Overview of Islamic Finance written by Mr.Mumtaz Hussain and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islamic finance has started to grow in international finance across the globe, with some concentration in few countries. Nearly 20 percent annual growth of Islamic finance in recent years seems to point to its resilience and broad appeal, partly owing to principles that govern Islamic financial activities, including equity, participation, and ownership. In theory, Islamic finance is resilient to shocks because of its emphasis on risk sharing, limits on excessive risk taking, and strong link to real activities. Empirical evidence on the stability of Islamic banks, however, is so far mixed. While these banks face similar risks as conventional banks do, they are also exposed to idiosyncratic risks, necessitating a tailoring of current risk management practices. The macroeconomic policy implications of the rapid expansion of Islamic finance are far reaching and need careful considerations.

Download or read book The Legal Framework for Incorporation of Islamic Venture Capital in Nigeria written by Sa'id Adekunle Mikail and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 830 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ultimate objectives of this study are twofold. The first is to examine possible incorporation of Islamic venture capital in Nigeria. The second is to examine whether the Malaysian regulatory model would be appropriate in the Nigerian milieu. Since Islamic venture capital is a new phenomenon, this study provides an overview of conventional venture capital as a precursor of the Islamic model. Furthermore, this study provides some introductory remarks on the development of Islamic venture capital while focusing on recent trends and regulatory policies. This includes pre-Islamic partnership modes, early Islamic partnership modes, modern evolution and application of venture capital, and contemporary application of Islamic venture capital. With special emphasis on Islamic venture capital, the study examines Shari'ah modes of investment, Shari'ah compliance requirements and legal requirements for incorporating Islamic venture capital followed by allied matters. The methodology used in this study involves both doctrinal and non-doctrinal methods. It employs qualitative method using phenomenological research based on purposefully selected samples for interviews on the Malaysian regulatory framework for Islamic venture capital with a view to assessing its appropriateness for Nigeria. In the Nigerian context, the descriptive approach of doctrinal research is applied. The research findings reveal that the Malaysian model is appropriate for Nigeria. Nevertheless, the study also finds that the major constraints of Islamic venture capital in Nigeria are political will, regulatory requirements and poor infrastructures. However, there are some essential issues to be addressed in addition to legal and regulatory amendments for incorporating Islamic venture capital in particular and Islamic financial system in general. First, there must be political will to incorporate the principles of Islamic finance into the Nigerian financial system. Second, the right technical infrastructure for a sound and robust socio-economic environment that is conducive for venture capital, whether Islamic or conventional, is of paramount importance.
