Africa’s finest gather for the IFN Africa Roadshow to offer a take on the latest developments of Islamic finance

The inaugural IFN Africa Roadshow brought us to three stunning countries in different corners of the continent: Nigeria in the west, Kenya in the east and South Africa at the southernmost tip. Described as the next frontier for Islamic finance, and rightly so, Africa, which accounts for a quarter of the global Muslim population, holds much promise. The success of the inaugural IFN African Roadshow is testament to the Islamic finance fabric of Africa, and we are pleased to launch the first African report. Content has been carefully curated and produced to provide an insightful overview of the region, while keeping in mind the uniqueness of different markets, and we hope you will find this a beneficial read.
