Islamic Finance has grown rapidly over its short 50-year history. The
total assets managed by some 500 institutions amount to US$ 3,000 to
US$ 4,000 billion in 76 countries. With about two-thirds of the
markets being managed in Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur has emerged as the
major hub for Islamic financial markets although there are six other
sizeable markets elsewhere.
