About the Lecture:
Since Murat Hasan Ünal (Funds@Work AG) published his first report about Shariah scholars´ involvement in financial services institutions across the world (March 2009), creating substantial transparency, there has been a lot of discussion about Shari’ah Scholars, their board memberships and proper Shari’ah governance
He will highlight the latest results of Funds@Work´s network analysis in the Islamic Finance Services Industry covering almost 1400 board positions, over 320 scholars, and 400 organisations which are engaged in this sector. He will discuss the IFSB, Bank Negara Malaysia and AAOIFI standards for Shari’ah governance as currently met by financial services institutions and will recommend governance measures which go well beyond the existing frameworks. This work is also a result of Murat´s Doctoral Studies at IE Business School where he focuses on the intersection of social capital with corporate governance
