Islamic Capital Markets and Risk Management

By Michael Mahlknecht

This Executive Report offers for the first time a complete and integrated view on all aspects of Islamic investing and risk management, focusing on all currently existing types of Islamic financial products worldwide. It is a valuable guide for both Islamic and conventional financial institutions.
The Executive Report is a "hands-on", practical report and is a practitioners’ handbook for practical issues both on investing and risk management (for both conventional and Islamic readers), and although religious issues are included the report does not exclusively focus on religious discussions by Islamic scholars.
Islamic capital markets have a low correlation to other market segments, allowing the selective underweighting of particular sectors and seem to be relatively independent, even from market turbulences like the subprime crisis and the ongoing problems with the markets that we are currently experiencing.
This Executive Report will be of specific value for treasurers (also from non-financial institutions), traders, risk managers, asset managers, financial engineers, product developers, executives in Islamic financial institutions, senior executives of banks, insurance firms, hedge funds, family offices, and pension funds.

Lessons from the Financial Crisis

Edited By Arthur M. Berd

Lessons from the Financial Crisis is an essential and comprehensive resource for market participants, researchers, regulators, academics and governments worldwide.
Containing both academic analysis and practical insights from renowned researchers and leading authorities such as John Hull and Stuart Turnbull, all aspects of the crisis which has defined a generation will be rigorously examined.
“This book has an extraordinary range of well organized chapters from highly distinguished financial academics and practitioners. Given the poor historical record of learning “lessons” from financial crises, this book provides an invaluable opportunity to gain multiple important perspectives from people in a position to share substantial wisdom that should not be missed.”
