The Islamic funds market is one of the fastest growing sectors of financial industry not only in Muslim but also in non-Muslim countries. It is estimated that presently more than 400 billion USD of Islamic assets are under management globally and more than 350 Islamic funds are now operating in the market with 15% annual growth. The primary characteristic that distinguishes an Islamic fund from conventional investment is its compliance with Shariah laws which requires the fund managers to adhere to Shariah.
