  1. Salam,

    My name is Dalal Jebril an I’m the editor of the monthly newsletter of a regional legal firm based in the Middle East. I came across your blog by chance, and I’m here contacting you to seek your permission to publish one/some of your articles/research/studies related to Islamic Finance, for we are interested in raising awareness among our international clients and draw their attention to the benefits of Islamic Finance.

    Thus, I would highly appreciate it if you give me your contact information or your consent or refusal of the latter.

    Please note that some of the articles published in our newsletter, were later requested by international publishing agencies, especially those based in the UK.

    Appreciating your kind cooperation in this matter,

    Very Truly Yours,

    Dalal Jebril (Ms.)

    I am a banker working for the largest private and Islamic bank in Bangladesh want to contribute something for further research in flourishing Islamic banking throughout the world. I have special concern in searching a comparative study between Islamic Finance and Japanese main banking system , their joint venture and management participating culture that takes a similarity of musharakah and mudarabah finance. Please do advise me for me to go ahead and note that I am completing a post graduate degree in Japanese Studies where Japanese economy and business is my main concern.

  18. Hi,

    I am a student currently undertaking a MSc. in Finance. I have a Research paper/ dissertation to write that is due on the 3rd of August. The topic I have picked is Islamic Fiance. I am mainly interested in the structure of Islamic finace and the comparison between Islamic banks and conventional banks.

    Could you please advise me on the best topic title to choose in your opinion? I am looking to make a comparison across countries based on profitability and risk. I am uncertain whether a cross country comparison is appropriate or I should be focusing on particular area?

    Kind Regards,

    Hugh

    great Website. I do have a question: Which Websites offer Job Listings for islamic banking positions?
