Dear Banking & Finance Leader,

On behalf of MEGA, it is my pleasure to present to you the post event report of the 18th Annual World Islamic Banking Conference (WIBC 2011).

Convened under the patronage of HRH Prince Khalifa Bin Salman Al Khalifa, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Bahrain, WIBC has once again confirmed its position as the world’s largest and the most influential annual gathering of Islamic finance leaders.

Islamic Finance: Competing for Global GrowthHeld under the theme “Competing for Global Growth”, WIBC 2011 broke all previous attendance records as 1,312 industry leaders from over 50 countries gathered in Bahrain from the 22nd - 24th of November 2011. The success of WIBC 2011 further confirmed the strength of this high-profile event in helping to shape the future of the global Islamic banking and finance industry.

The industry leaders gathered at WIBC 2011 were of the opinion that the global financial crisis has given the Islamic financial industry a great opportunity. The obvious flaws in conventional finance have created great international interest in the Islamic financial model. This should provide the basis for the industry to sustain a period of strong growth for the rest of this decade. The growth opportunities are especially strong as Islamic finance has its largest presence in rapidly growing economies that have been least affected by the financial crisis. With the major markets for Islamic finance expected to continue registering high rates of growth, key players in the industry must position themselves to capitalize on the new growth opportunities presented by the increasing internationalization of Islamic banking and finance.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the Central Bank of Bahrain for their long-term support and their role in making WIBC an unparalleled international gathering of key regulators and thought leaders from the global Islamic finance industry. We would also like to take this opportunity to thank our Jurisdiction Partner the Economic Development Board of Bahrain; and our Platinum Strategic Partners: the National Commercial Bank (NCB), NCB Capital, Ithmaar Bank, Bahrain Islamic Bank, and Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB).

We would also like to extend our sincere gratitude to Ernst & Young for their key role in the development of the World Islamic Banking Competitiveness Report 2011/12 which was exclusively launched at WIBC 2011. Titled ‘A Brave New World of Sustainable Growth’, the 2011/12 Report analyzed the key strategies that leading Islamic financial institutions must deploy in order to ensure continued growth in a challenging economic environment.

The 18th annual edition of the World Islamic Banking Conference saw a number of innovations in terms of the content and format of the event which went beyond the ‘conference basics’ not only providing meaningful new insights but also tackling the big picture industry-changing scenarios. The launch of the Islamic Interbank Benchmark Rate (IIBR) at WIBC 2011 marked an important milestone in the global Islamic finance industry by providing an international reference rate for interbank transactions. The participation of official delegations from the United Kingdom, France, Singapore, Bermuda, Luxembourg and Labuan at WIBC 2011 and the country specific roundtable sessions held along the sidelines of WIBC 2011 provided a platform to understand the rapidly changing developments in these dynamic regions and build a deeper relationship between the key markets.

WIBC 2011 was a unique platform for the leading international and regional broadcast media, newspapers and industry trade publications to engage the market leaders on the industry’s most pressing issues.

Given the upbeat pulse of the industry and exciting prospects outlined at WIBC 2011, planning is already underway for the 19th Annual World Islamic Banking Conference (WIBC 2012) which is scheduled to be held from the 9th to the 11th of December 2012 in the Kingdom of Bahrain. We would also like to take this opportunity to invite you to attend the forthcoming 3rd Annual World Islamic Banking Conference: Asia Summit (WIBC Asia 2012) which will be held on the 5th and 6th of June 2012 in Singapore to engage in discussions that will “strengthen international connectivity and capture cross-border opportunities for Islamic finance.”

Once again our sincere gratitude to all our partners, sponsors, speakers and delegates for making WIBC 2011 such a huge success.

Yours sincerely,

David McLeanCheif ExecutiveThe World Islamic Banking ConferenceA MEGA Brand

The Growth Story of the WIBC Brand

“The growing internationalization of Islamic finance reflects its ability to be competitive and respond to the complex needs of businesses globally. As the industry’s geographic footprint expands, it is becoming increasingly vital to develop appropriate global frameworks and overcome the challenges of globalization faced by Islamic finance. The World Islamic Banking Conference (WIBC 2011) played a meaningful role in facilitating dialogues to prepare the international Islamic finance industry to “Compete for Global Growth”. The Central Bank of Bahrain was delighted to be again hosting this unique global industry gathering.”

H.E. Rasheed Mohammed Al Maraj, Governor, Central Bank of Bahrain

Keynote Addresses @ WIBC 2011Managing the Challenges of Industry Globalization: Strengthening Regulatory

Frameworks to Accelerate the International Development of Islamic Finance

Regulatory Reforms in Islamic Finance:Promoting Stability in Turbulent Times

Competing for Global Growth:Preparing for the Asian Century

Commenting on the need for strengthening regulatory reforms, H.E. Rasheed M. Al Maraj, Governor, Central Bank of Bahrain in his keynote address noted that “the regulatory framework needs to keep pace with an expanding industry. The Islamic financial industry is fortunate in that it has several well-established standard setting bodies, including the Islamic Financial Services Board, the International Islamic Financial Market, and the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions. Over the years, these standard setting bodies have demonstrated their ability to adapt international standards to the needs of the Islamic financial industry. These bodies now need to take the lead in adapting the new international standards to the specific circumstances of Islamic finance. Ensuring that firms have strong capital and liquidity buffers should not be seen as an optional extra for the industry, but as an essential foundation for its next stage of growth.”

Speaking about regulatory reforms in Islamic finance, Jaseem Ahmed, Secretary-General, Islamic Financial Services Board (IFSB) said that “Islamic finance is a global industry today with tremendous prospects. It thus needs standards attuned to its global investor and stakeholder base. In practical terms, standards for prudential and supervisory practices are critical to achieving the transparency and stability objectives that underpin the legal and regulatory framework. Having a global set of standards provides a common benchmark for mainstreaming Islamic finance within each national jurisdiction.”

In his keynote address, H.E. Khaled Mohammed Al-Aboodi, Chief Executive Officer & General Manager, The Islamic Corporation for the Development of the Private Sector, the private sector arm of the Islamic Development Bank Group (IDB), Saudi Arabia said that “the pre-requisites for a sustained growth in Islamic finance are many. Nonetheless, one of the main issues that the industry is facing is the lack of sufficient and sound regulatory framework in some aspects of the industry’s operations. Effective prudential supervision on banks is quite vital and crucial in the Islamic banking sector. Furthermore, a system of proper corporate governance processes which are relevant and particular to Islamic principles must be in place in our financial institutions. In addition, the introduction of liquid, equity-based risk sharing and capital adequacy frameworks will shield Islamic institutions from the effects of future shocks and will help build a more sustainable financial system.”

According to Prof. Kishore Mahbubani, Dean and Professor in the Practice of Public Policy, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, National University of Singapore, “after two centuries of Western domination, the world is returning to the historical norm of two millennia. Asia is returning to the center stage of world history. This is due to the fact that Asians have absorbed and understood the Western best practices in many areas, from free-market economics to the embrace of innovative science and technology, meritocracy and rule of law. And they have become innovative in their own ways, creating new patterns of cooperation. Hence, Goldman Sachs has predicted that in 2050, the four largest economies in the world will be China, India, USA and Japan.”

Capitalizing on New Growth Opportunities Driven bythe Increasing Internationalization of Islamic Finance

CEOs & Industry Leaders’ Power Debate

Global Islamic Banking Assets with Commercial Banks to Reach$1.1 Tn in 2012, Up 33% from US$826 Bn in 2010

In collaboration with

The World Islamic Banking Competitiveness Report, a ground-breaking initiative designed to not only identify but also to raise the bar of competitive excellence, strategic leadership and performance improvement in the global Islamic finance industry, now in its 8th annual edition, analyzed key strategies that leading Islamic financial institutions must deploy in order to ensure continued growth in a challenging economic environment.

According to the report, two key themes are starting to emerge. The first is the need for excellence in banking operations and the second is to improve product innovation. The combined MENA Islamic banking profit pool could rise to US$15 - 19 billion in 2015 from the 2010 levels of US$5 - 6 billion, primarily by combining operational transformation with a more robust risk infrastructure. Potential growth opportunities for regional Islamic banks include the emerging Islamic geographies, growing affluence among retail customers, better alignment with real economy and rising SME banking.

Paradigm Shift in the Global Islamic Financial Markets: Creating a New BenchmarkUnveiling of a World First: Launch of the Islamic Interbank Benchmark Rate (IIBR)

Industry Leaders at the IIBR Launch @ WIBC 2011

Thomson Reuters launched the world’s first Islamic finance benchmark rate, designed to provide an objective and dedicated indicator for the average expected return on Shariah-compliant short-term interbank funding. The Islamic Interbank Benchmark Rate (IIBR), announced at the 18th Annual World Islamic Banking Conference in Bahrain, uses the contributed rates of 16 Islamic banks and the Islamic sections of conventional banks to provide a reliable and much-needed alternative for pricing Islamic instruments to the conventional interest-based benchmarks used for mainstream finance.

Led by

Nasser Saidi, Chief Economist,Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC)Chairman, IIBR

Rushdi SiddiquiGlobal Head of Islamic FinanceThomson Reuters

“The establishment of the IIBR marks an important milestone in the maturation of Islamic money markets by providing an international reference rate for interbank transactions. Conventional money markets have relied on LIBOR, which by definition does not comply with Shariah conventions. Islamic markets will be able to rely on the IIBR and it will become an international reference rate for both conventional and Shariah-compliant transactions. Our aim is to provide an IIBR that is reliable, timely, representative of market conditions, transparent in its construction and accepted as the market reference. Islamic money and financial markets are coming of age and becoming part of the mainstream.”

“The delinking from conventional performance benchmarks started more than a dozen years ago and now we are extremely proud to offer the world’s first Islamic pricing benchmark, the Thomson Reuters Islamic Interbank Benchmark Rate. We have taken a collaborative approach as industry challenges are best solved by industry players working towards a common objective. The simplicity and robustness of the new benchmark’s methodology, governance, and transparency, combined with the endorsement of many respected Islamic financial institutions and scholars, will result in a reliable and realistic benchmark that better measures cost of funding for Islamic financial institutions. Together we are taking an important step forward for Islamic finance authenticity.”

The World Comes to WIBC Initiative: Creating a Truly Global Platform

The UK Roundtable: Islamic Finance and the UK: Building International Partnerships

The World Comes to WIBC Initiative is a collaborative platform designed to highlight and discuss key issues that the Islamic finance industry is facing in various key jurisdictions. WIBC 2011 showcased the Islamic finance capabilities and innovations in Britain, France, Singapore, Bermuda, Luxembourg and Labuan

WIBC 2011 will feature a fully-fledged UK pavilion which will showcase the leading institutions from the United Kingdom.

“With a proven track record as a leading international financial centre and a long history of building strong regulatory infrastructure, the United Kingdom is keen to further establish its links and partnerships with the international Islamic finance industry. Given the UK’s strong financial and trade links with the Gulf and South East Asia, which are the major centres for Islamic finance, there are tremendous opportunities for cross-border investment flows that are Shari’ah-compliant. The progress made by UK firms in the Islamic finance industry is notable and the UK Pavilion at the World Islamic Banking Conference 2011 was an opportune platform to showcase the Islamic finance capabilities of the UK and further build our relationships with the leading international players.”

HMA Iain Lindsay OBE, British Ambassador to Bahrain, British Embassy Bahrain

“Bahrain continues to be widely recognised as a global leader in Islamic finance, and is also home to a number of central bodies which set the standards for the industry across the globe. Guiding over thirty countries on conducting business by Islamic principles has provided many investors with the confidence they need despite the turbulent market conditions in recent years. We have built a solid foundation for Islamic banking in the Kingdom; presently there are more than twenty five Islamic banks and the monthly issues of the Sukuk Al-Salam Islamic securities are regularly over-subscribed.

Given our heritage in Islamic Banking, and our commitment to a strong future for the sector, we are proud to continue to host and support the 18th Annual World Islamic Banking Conference.”
