| Dublin has already earned a reputation as being a major centre for specialist securitisation and is recognised globally as an investment hub for asset-backed securities.
Having grown enormously in terms of issuance volumes and transaction type in recent years, the Irish Stock Exchange has placed itself as the leading exchange for listing specialist debt securities in Europe including Islamic Financing, listing its first Islamic transaction in 2005.
The listing of the first Sukuk transaction on the ISE in 2005 has not only enhanced Ireland’s profile in the global Islamic finance industry, but is a perfect illustration of the flexibility of the Irish Stock Exchange towards Sharia-compliant products. |
