Note from the editor<br />
It won’t be long before <strong>Islamic</strong> banking and fi nance becomes part of the<br />
mainstream. Despite being in existence for less than 40 years, <strong>Islamic</strong> fi nance<br />
is already estimated to be worth US$700 billion globally and has grown by<br />
15% in each of the past three years. It has proven itself to be a valid and<br />
viable form of fi nancing for all.<br />

The industry has developed various Shariah compliant structures that provide<br />
investment opportunities and meet the fi nancing needs of businesses and<br />
investors who want to comply with the Shariah.<br />
In the <strong>Islamic</strong> capital market, we see more and more deals being structured<br />
in a unique manner within the ambit of the Shariah but whose returns are as<br />
lucrative as those offered by conventional deals. The <strong>Islamic</strong> fi nance deals<br />
in 2006 set great precedents but industry players worked hard to set new<br />
benchmarks in 2007.<br />
Once again, <strong>Islamic</strong> <strong>Finance</strong> news presents the Deals of the Year 2007 handbook<br />
featuring case studies on the industry’s most successful and innovative deals<br />
written by leading players including lawyers and bankers. We stress that<br />
these case studies are not meant to be expert advice. Rather, they aim<br />
to provide unique insights into the challenges and opportunities faced by<br />
practitioners in structuring the deals.<br />
Case studies this time around include Khazanah’s US$850million <strong>Sukuk</strong>, to date<br />
the largest equity deal in Malaysia, Tamweel’s US$210 million securitization<br />
(which is the fi rst UAE-rated <strong>Islamic</strong> mortgage alternative instrument) and the<br />
massive US$6.1 billion license fi nancing by MTC Saudi.<br />
We would also like to thank all the contributors for sharing their experiences in<br />
structuring the award-winning deals. Congratulations to all winners of <strong>Islamic</strong><br />
<strong>Finance</strong> news Deals of the Year 2007.<br />
