As one of the fastest growing segments in the international financial system, Islamic Sukuk is becoming increasingly integrated to the international financial system. Although the most recent global crisis is expected to slow international banks’ activities; at least in short-term cycle; the collapse of some international investment banks and the shockwaves it caused will give additional impetus for Islamic Sukuk to act as a genuine growth area as it has the capacity and capability to bring stability to the world financial market.
