Shari'ah-compliant endorsements of land investment products covered in noon talk

Pergas, the Singapore Islamic Scholars and Religious Teachers Association, will participate in a noon talk about its shari'ah-compliant endorsement of the Walton Group of Companies' business model and investment offerings.

The Walton Group of Companies (Walton) is a multinational privately-owned real estate investment and development group which concentrates on pre-development land investments in North America. As of May 2016, the shari'ah endorsement applies to the 12 regions where Walton-administered lands are located: Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Maryland, Virginia, Texas, Tennessee and Oklahoma.

The talk, titled Fast & Learn, will be in two parts. Shahirah Mohamed Salleh, Head, Syariah Advisory and Services of Pergas Investment (MSc in Islamic Banking and Finance) will cover:

• What shari'ah-compliance means to investors
• What kinds of investments are deemed shari'ah-compliant

The credentials and track record for Walton investments will also be discussed by Tee Wai Wai, Director of Sales, Walton International Group.
