About this listen

  • Shariah screens limit the number of defensive assets available for asset managers in narrow markets where financial institutions represent 25-30% of the market
  • Investment managers can offset some of the additional risk by using ESG integration strategies, as well as investing in global sukuk
  • The institutionalization of Shari'ah standards gives Islamic asset managers a leg up compared to ESG in terms of clarity about how their investment process is affected by their approach to responsible finance
