With Islamic finance gaining traction across many parts of the world, the development of waqf can play a significant role in attracting greater interest and participation in the Islamic finance industry and entrenching Islamic finance activities.

Waqf Assets: Development, Governance and the Role of Islamic Capital Market is a guide for waqf institutions, religious bodies, practitioners and other interested parties who wish to explore opportunities in developing waqf assets through the Islamic capital market and provides recommendations on governance best practices for waqf institutions that intend to leverage the Islamic capital market for fundraising and investment. 

The book can be purchased for RM80 at the SIDC Bookshop located at the Securities Commission Malaysia headquarters*. For every purchase, RM20 will be donated to initiatives supporting waqf development.
