Malaysia has the distinction of being at the forefront of Islamic finance, with the third largest market for Islamic financial assets, behind only Iran and Saudi Arabia.

Is Malaysia doing enough to maintain its leadership role in this sector? We discuss the trends in Islamic Finance with Prof Emeritus Dato' Dr Azmi Omar, President & CEO, INCEIF University.
