AlBaraka Forum for Islamic Economy in collaboration with Islamic Chamber of Commerce and Development (ICCD) will back to Pakistan to host the 4th AlBaraka Forum Regional conference in Pakistan, “SUKUK FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT: INTERNATIONAL BEST PRACTICES” on January 28, 2025, at Marquee Hall, Karachi Marriott hotel – Pakistan. This high-level gathering is intended to highlight the significance of Sukuk as and its implications for economic growth and the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals.
Sukuk and sustainable development projects are two important topics increasingly being discussed. Sukuk are Islamic financial instruments that can be used to finance a wide range of projects, including those that are environmentally and socially sustainable. This makes them a potential tool for mobilizing capital for sustainable development.
Our conference on Sukuk and sustainable development projects would be a valuable opportunity to discuss these issues and explore how Sukuk can achieve The SDGs. The conference could bring together government officials, investors, bankers, and other stakeholders to discuss the potential of Sukuk for sustainable development. The conference could also provide a forum for sharing best practices and developing new ideas about using Sukuk to finance sustainable development projects. The conference would be an essential step in raising awareness about the potential of Sukuk for sustainable development. It would also be an opportunity to promote the development of more standardized Sukuk structures and to increase transparency and disclosure in the Sukuk market. By bringing together stakeholders from different sectors, the conference could help create a more conducive environment for Sukuk’s growth as a sustainable development tool.

  • Location: Marquee Hall, Karachi Marriott hotel – Pakistan
