Malaysia. The Global Hub

Description

Malaysia is the world’s leading hub for Islamic finance. It began in the 1960s with the creation of the Pilgrims Fund, an organization set up to make pilgrimages to Mecca more affordable. Today, the Malaysian sovereign pension fund – the second largest in Asia – invests more than $3 billion in Sukuks, or Islamic bonds. Interviewees include former Malaysian Prime Minister Tun Mahathir Mohamad, Bursa Malaysia CEO Dato’ Tajuddin Atan, CIMB Islamic CEO Badlisyah Abdul Ghani, and Khazanah Nasional CEO Mohd Izani Ghani.
