Produktbeschreibung
Understanding credit risk in Islamic Banking will be key to facilitating the assimilation of Shariah- compliant institutions in Switzerland. Increasing demand from Muslim HNWIs and UHNWIs for alternatives to conventional private banking is likely to challenge regulators, as the current legal framework is not adapted to Islamic Banks.
