THE Sri Lanka Islamic Banking and Finance Conference will be held for the third consecutive year on the 25 July 2011 at the Galadari Hotel, Colombo.

The past two years witnessed experts from the IBF industry in Sri Lanka as well as overseas in attendance. In fact, the past conferences have attracted delegates from several countries spanning four continents.

Given the significant events that have taken place in the industry in the recent past, such as the licensing of the first Islamic bank in Sri Lanka, the launch of the first open-ended Shariah compliant Equity Fund, and the entry of banking giants such as Bank of Ceylon and Commercial Bank, this event is expected to focus on the Sri Lankan industry although many delegates from overseas have confirmed their attendance.
