The BNP Paribas – INCEIF Centre for Islamic Wealth Management (CIWM) has launched a booklet about socially responsible investing (SRI) titled SRI (Sustainable Responsible and Impactful) & the Case for Islamic Funds. The SRI booklet is a joint effort between CIWM and the Malaysian International Islamic Financial Centre (MIFC) to raise awareness on the inextricable link between sustainable and shari'ah compliant investments.
The booklet has three sections:
Foundation and growth of investing through principles
Investors' increasing attraction for the SRIs
The case of emerging markets, Islamic investments and the Malaysian option
The key objective of this publication is to create awareness on shared SRI and Islamic finance value propositions and develop a global interest for SRI sukuk. It also seeks to support business engagements in securing SRI mandates and environmental, social and governance-based business.
