Being the backbone of both developed and
emerging economies, SMEs and MSMEs have limited access to finance,
resulting in a funding gap. Islamic finance, with its portfolio of asset
and equity-based financing solutions and its foundational philosophy of
achieving financial inclusion, is well suited to bridge this gap.

Governor's Keynote Address at the Launch
of the Investment Account Platform (IAP)
|
|
This
platform is more than just a new and innovative medium
for Shariah-compliant investments and fund raising initiatives.
It signifies a fundamental shift towards providing solutions
that addresses the prevailing gap in the current
risk-transfer financial regime to one that now allows for
financial institutions to include a wider range of
investment intermediation activities that emphasises risk-sharing
and thus facilitate a stronger linkage of finance and the real
economy.
