The two-day summit at JW Marriott Grosvenor Hotel - organised by the AlBaraka Forum for Islamic Economy - comes at a critical moment for ethical, inclusive economic transformation, spotlighting Islamic finance's growing role beyond the Muslim-majority world.

Areas of focus of the summit include values-based finance, sustainable investing, and practical strategies and international examples of the integration of Islamic finance in non-Muslim economies. The summit will explore the impact and challenges of regulatory frameworks, opportunities around Shariah-compliant investment, and the growing relationship between Islamic finance and ESG goals.

Keynote addresses will be delivered by figures such as:

His Excellency Mr. Yousef Khalawi, Secretary General of AlBaraka Forum for Islamic Economy, commented: "Many non-Muslim countries have already begun incorporating Islamic economic principles into their financial systems, recognising their value in investment, finance, and long-term commercial partnerships. As global markets face increasing pressure for diversification, equity, and enduring value creation, the Islamic economy should be viewed as a key pillar in shaping a more balanced and purpose-driven financial future."

With participants from over 30 countries expected, the London summit offers insights into how the Islamic finance sector, which surpasses $3 trillion in assets globally, can create new partnerships in mainstream markets.
