"I recognise that this joint initiative with the IFC aims to enhance Shariah scholars and Islamic bankers comparative understanding of conventional versus Islamic finance. This will go a long way in empowering the scholars and bankers.” Central Bank of Bahrain, Governor R. Al Maraj
"This is a ground-breaking initiative between the IFC and the SII to develop the financial skills of shariah scholars from around the world.” Economic Secretary to the Treasury, UK.
The IFC Scholar Professional Development Programme is an international exclusively tailored conventional markets training programme designed specifically for Shariah scholars and those associated with the Shariah assurance process.
Developed by the IFC and assisted by the Chartered Institute of Securities and Investment (CISI) the programme takes a CPD (Continuous Professional Development) approach to empowering Shariah scholars by providing them a comprehensive and up to date understanding of conventional financial markets, covering both key fundamental mechanics and contemporary issues.
