The challenges faced by the regulators in harmonising the standards of the conventional insurance and Takāful sector shall be illustrated. The session will also illuminate on the industry players’ perspective on meeting the evolving regulatory landscape and implications for their operations.\n\n\n13:00 – 14:00\nLuncheon\n\n\n14:00 – 15:15\nSession 3: The Role of Microtakāful in Financial Inclusion This session aims to highlight how Microtakāful contribute the availability of risk coverage products to the wider sections of society.

In particular\, the panel will examine the potential for public-private synergies in the development of an Islamic finance legal and regulatory framework\, and for a sound supportive institutional structure\, as well as for knowledge sharing and capacity development goals. The panel will showcase real-life case studies on Islamic finance to provide practical examples on the above.\n\n\n12:10 – 12:30\nClosing Remarks Ms. Gloria Grandolini\, Senior Director\, Finance & Markets Global Practice Group\, World Bank\n\n\n12:30 – 12:30\nEnd of Seminar\n\n\n\nDownloadable Document(s)\n\n\n\n1.)\n\nEvent Session(s) – PDF Format\n\n\n2.)\n\nWB – IFSB High-Level Seminar on Islamic Finance

SUMMARY:IFSB-FIS Workshop on IFSB Standards for Regulatory and Supervisory Authorities for the Banking Sector
DESCRIPTION:This 5-day Workshop is tailored for the regulatory and supervisory authorities for the banking sector\, thus intend to be a Train the Trainer Programme for the staff on the IFSB Standards. The main focus of the Workshop lies in incorporating the latest IFSB Standards issued by the IFSB after the world post-crisis in 2008 and Basel III issuance which are IFSB-15: Revised Capital Adequacy Standard for Institutions offering only Islamic Financial Services (IIFS)\, GN-6: Guidance Note on Quantitative Measures for Liquidity Risk Management and IFSB-17: Core Principles for Islamic Finance Regulation (Banking Segment). In addition\, the workshop will also cover sessions for Exposure Draft (ED) of Technical Note-2 (TN-2) on Stress Testing for IIFS which follows on from\, and complements\, the earlier IFSB-13\, Guiding Principles on Stress Testing for IIFS. The IFSB-13\, which was issued in 2012 provides a comprehensive stress testing framework for both IIFS and supervisory authorities. \nAs a background\, the main objective of IFSB-17 is to provide a set of Core Principles – along with associated assessment methodology – for the regulation and supervision of the Islamic financial services industry (IFSI)\, taking into consideration the specificities of the IIFS in the banking segment\, the lessons learned from the financial crisis\, and complementing the existing international standards\, principally the Core Principles for Effective Banking Supervision issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. \nIFSB-15: Revised Capital Adequacy Standard\, for its part\, includes implementation of an optimal capital adequacy framework to facilitate the effective coverage of risk exposures of the IIFS as well as the allocation of appropriate capital to cover these risks in a manner that is based predominantly on the Standardised Approach. This Standard also provides guidance on the features and criteria for high-quality regulatory capital components\, including Additional Tier 1 and Tier 2\, which comply with Sharī`ah rules and principles. Similarly\, it includes new guidance on macroprudential tools\, such as capital buffers and leverage ratios (especially for domestic systemically important banks) which shall support the supervisory authorities in achieving the goal of protecting the banking system and the real economy from system-wide shocks. \nMoreover\, GN-6:  Quantitative Measures for Liquidity Risk Management Guidance Note complements the Standard IFSB-12: Guiding Principles on Liquidity Risk Management for IIFS\, and supports the harmonised application of the international regulatory regime in the area of liquidity risk management. This is achieved by providing guidance on the application of global liquidity standards for the IIFS\, especially the Liquidity Coverage ratio (LCR) and Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) at the current stage\, with suitable adjustments based on the specific operational characteristics. Moreover\, it provides guidance to supervisory authorities on the application of the LCR and NSFR in their jurisdictions and on their role in assessing the discretionary items specified in this GN\, including application of the alternative liquidity approaches (ALA). \nTN-2: Technical Note on Stress Testing provides stress testing scenarios that address multiple types of risks and their interrelated effects on the overall financial position and performance of the portfolio\, the institution itself or the overall financial system. It incorporates risk specificities of Sharī`ah-compliant contracts’ when conducting stress tests on an IIFS. \nOverall\, this Workshop intends to be a Train the Trainer programme for the staff of regulatory and supervisory authorities on the IFSB Standards\, and aims to: \n\nEnhance the participants’ understanding of the respective Standards and Guiding Principles thereby facilitating the implementation of these standards in their respective jurisdictions;\nAssist the participants in the practical application of issues addressed in the particular standards through case studies\, hands-on exercises and other interactive tools; and\nPromote the sharing of experiences among the participants on the implementation of respective IFSB Standards and Guiding Principles.\n\nParticipation in this Workshop is by INVITATION only.

SUMMARY:10th IFSB-INCEIF Executive Forum: Financial Inclusion and Islamic Finance - Aligning Objectives and Methodologies
DESCRIPTION:This is the 10th edition of the IFSB-INCEIF Executive Forum on Islamic Finance Series. \nThe IFSB-INCEIF Executive Forum aims to provide a platform for global leaders in Islamic finance to discuss selected emerging issues in the Islamic financial services industry. The Executive Forum places emphasis on issues related to supervision and prudential regulation\, both at national and international levels\, harnessing from the experiences of a distinguished pool of global experts\, academicsand practitioners. More information on the theme and sessions will be uploaded in due course. \nThe theme of the 10th IFSB-INCEIF Executive Forum “Financial Inclusion and Islamic Finance: Aligning objectives and methodologies” aims to clarify and align the objectives and benefits of financial inclusion with that of Maqasid Al-Shariah and emphasise the importance of supervisory and regulatory initiatives in supporting the growth of financial inclusion. \nFinancial inclusion and shared prosperity have been recognised as key components of the global agenda contributing to stability.

SUMMARY:IFSB-FIS Workshop Series (Palestine)
DESCRIPTION:This 4-day Workshop is tailored for the regulatory and supervisory authorities as well as the market players in the banking sector in Palestine\, and will discuss on the following IFSB Standards: \n\n\n 	IFSB-1: Guiding Principles of Risk Management for Institutions (other than Insurance Institutions) offering Islamic Financial Services (IIFS);\n 	IFSB-2: Capital Adequacy Standard for IIFS;\n 	GN-4: Guidance Note in Connection with the IFSB Capital Adequacy Standard: The Determination of Alpha in the Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) for IIFS; and\n 	IFSB-16: Revised Guidance on Key Elements In The Supervisory Review Process of IIFS\n\nAs a background\, IFSB-1: Guiding Principles of Risk Management provides a set of guidelines of best practices for establishing and implementing effective risk management in IIFS. In particular\, the Standard sets out 15 principles for managing the risks inherent in Sharī`ah-compliant financial businesses. \nIFSB-2: Capital Adequacy Standard is the equivalent of Pillar 1 of Basel II for IIFS. It complements the Basel capital framework by raising the specificities of IIFS that include\, inter-alia\, the treatment of profit-sharing investment accounts (PSIA) and measuring the risk weights of Sharī`ah-compliant products. Moreover\, the Standard proposes two methods for calculating the capital adequacy ratios\, namely the Standard formula as well as the supervisory discretion formula. \nGN-4: Guidance Note in Connection with the IFSB Capital Adequacy Standard: The Determination of Alpha in the Capital Adequacy Ratio for IIFS\, for its part provides a methodology to estimate the value of alpha to be used in the supervisory discretion formula in calculating the CAR of IIFS; and to demonstrate how to measure the Displaced Commercial Risk (DCR). \nIn addition\, IFSB-16: Revised Guidance on Key Elements In The Supervisory Review Process offers guidance on key elements in the supervisory review process for authorities supervising IIFS taking into consideration the specificities of the IIFS\, the lessons learned from the crisis\, while complementing the existing international standards on the supervisory review process\, in particular those of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS). \nOverall\, this Workshop aims to: \n\n\n 	Enhance the participants’ understanding of the respective Standards and Guiding Principles thereby facilitating the implementation of these standards in their respective jurisdictions;\n 	Assist the participants in the practical application of issues addressed in the particular standards through case studies\, hands-on exercises and other interactive tools; and\n 	Promote the sharing of experiences among the participants on the implementation of respective IFSB Standards and Guiding Principles.\n\nThis Workshop is hosted by the Palestine Monetary Authority and participation in this Workshop is by INVITATION only.

The IFSB’s PSIFIs database project\, which was developed in light of these needs\, has achieved several key milestones\, with further work planned ahead to build a comprehensive and consistent framework and infrastructure for Islamic Financial Statistics.\n\n\n13:00 – 14:30\nLunch\n\n\n14:30 – 16:00\nSession 3: Interactive Session : Countries Experiences and Challenges in Compiling FSIs and PSIFIs The session will foster discussion and garner feedback from RSAs on their experiences\, expectations as well as challenges in the compilation of quality and relevant data for soundness indicators. The session will address the following: What are the challenges in the compilation of FSIs and PSIFIs What are the areas where further progress is needed How does the Soundness Indicators contribute to surveillance and macro prudential and macroeconomic policy making\n\n\n16:00 – 16:30\nNetworking and Side Meetings\n\n\nDay 2\n02/03/2017\n09:00 – 10:15\nSession 4: Use of FSIs and PSIFIs The session will look at how the impact of macro-economic shocks can be assessed by utilising the FSIs and PSIFIs\, which are sectoral indicators of financial health\, in macro stress testing frameworks of RSAs. Analytical work has focused on how aggregate stress testing can be used in combination with FSIs and PSIFIs – which are typically the outputs or intermediate inputs of stress tests – to enhance their usefulness.\n\n\n10:15 – 10:45\nCoffee Break & Networking\n\n\n10:45 – 12:15\nSession 5: Concentration and Distribution Measures The session will discuss the need for augmenting the FSIs and possibly PSIFIs with relevant concentration and distribution measures (CDMs) to capture tail risks\, concentrations\, variations in distributions\, and the volatility of indicators over time that simple averages can miss. As a starting point\, the IMF pilot project launched in July 2014 by the Statistics Department to test the CDMs will be presented.\n\n\n12:15 – 13:45\nLunch\n\n\n13:45 – 15:15\nSession 6: Panel Discussion Global Soundness Indicators: Future Direction The panel discussion will focus on what is next on the agenda for global soundness indicators\, including: Areas for further expansion of data coverage\, particularly in terms of addressing priority areas and data gaps; Enhancing the current indicators and compilation methodologies\, Future role of soundness indicators in surveillance\, core principle assessment and stress testing; Areas for collaboration between multilateral organisations to improve the quality and consistency of financial statistics\, including strategies to meet the capacity-building needs to strengthen the institutional and statistical capacity for better understanding\, compilation and use of the indicators.\n\n\n15:15 – 15:30\nClosing Remarks\n\n\n15:30 – 16:00\nNetworking and Side Meetings

SUMMARY:IFSB-DFSA Joint Seminar: Liquidity Generating Innovations in Islamic Finance: The Role of Sukuk and Securitisation to Support New Financial Regulations
DESCRIPTION:The half-day Seminar is designed to encourage broad interaction among the delegates to explore Shariah-compliant Islamic capital market instruments\, in particular Sukuk and Securitisation of Assets\, to generate liquidity in the global Islamic financial services industry. At a time of implementation of tightened financial regulations\, this Seminar seeks to raise awareness on the readiness of Islamic financial institutions to meet the new requirements\, particularly on liquidity\, while also highlighting opportunities available to various bodies (e.g. regulatory authorities\, capital market players\, legal firms) to support the industry’s liquidity management needs.\n\nThe opening remarks will be delivered by Mr. Ian Johnston\, Chief Executive\, Dubai Financial Services Authority and Mr. Zahid ur Rehman Khokher\, Acting Secretary-General\, IFSB\n\nThe confirmed panelists are:\n\n 	Basheer Ahmad\, Dubai Financial Services Authority\, UAE\n 	Ismail Dadabhoy\, Islamic International Financial Market (IIFM)\, Bahrain\n 	Dr. Mohamed Damak\, S&P Global Ratings\, UAE\n 	Debashis Dey\, White & Case LLP\, UAE\n 	Khalid Howladar\, Acreditus\, UAE\n 	Moosa Tariq Khoory\, Dubai islamic Bank\, UAE\n 	Gregory Man\, Norton Rose Fulbright (Middle East) LLP\, UAE\n 	Prof. Volker Nienhaus\, University of Bochum\n\nProgramme – Event Session(s)\n\n\n\nDate\nTime\nTopics\n\n\nDay 1\n30/04/2017\n08:30 – 09:30\nRegistration\n\n\n09:30 – 09:45\nWelcoming Remarks\n\n\n09:45 – 10:50\nSession 1: Panel Discussion: The Role of Shariah-Compliant Instruments in the Islamic Capital Market Liquidity risk management remains one of the most challenging issues within the IFSI as Shariah principles render most of the conventional capital and money market instruments and borrowing windows/facilities as not compliant. This is at a time when revised Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) and Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) liquidity requirements under both Basel III & IFSB GN-6 are gradually being put into effect. There is a significant lack of Shariah-compliant high-quality-liquid-assets (HQLA) that meet LCR requirements and\, in the past\, many Islamic banks are known to have relied primarily on cash and central bank placements as their main liquidity management tools. Shariah-compliant profit-generating tradable instruments are also widely in demand for liquidity management purposes by other Islamic financial institutions\, for instance\, in the Takaful and the Islamic asset management industries. Given this\, how can existing instruments in the Islamic capital market support liquidity management in the IFSI? What are the issues involving the use of commodity murabaha for managing liquidity? Is there a need to develop new ICM instruments based on other commodities such as crude oil? What efforts can be made by various bodies (e.g. regulatory authorities\, multilateral organisations\, capital market players\, exchanges/bourses) to support liquidity management in the IFSI? What are the opportunities available in the ICM to address this gap in the market?\n\n\n10:50 – 11:10\nNetworking Break\n\n\n11:10 – 12:15\nSession 2: Panel Discussion: Securitisation of Islamic Assets Amid a period of liquidity pressures in key IFSI jurisdictions\, influenced by prolonged low energy prices and fiscal tightening\, an option for Islamic financial institutions with long-term non-tradable assets is to explore securitisation. The global financial crisis tarnished the image of securitisation\, to some extent\, but building on the lessons learned from the crisis\, Shariah-compliant structures could enable Islamic banks to more easily meet revised capital and liquidity regulations. For instance\, structures could enable an efficient offloading of non-tradable assets from their balance sheets to improve capital ratios; monetise previously illiquid assets to enhance liquidity; and facilitate raising of cheaper funding at an asset level as opposed to the bank level. The key challenge is in structuring an Islamic financial securitised instrument that meets Shariah requirements and avoids the problems that contributed towards the crisis.\n\n\n12:30 – 13:30\nNetworking Lunch

There are now at least 12 jurisdictions where Islamic banking is identified to have systemic importance for the domestic banking sector. These trends indicate Islamic finance is now gradually moving towards achieving mainstream concentration. What doors to opportunities could be further unlocked for the stakeholders? What would be the issues and challenges to this path of transformation? This session aims to highlight: • The growth and transformation of the IFSI over the last decade • Key differentiation between Islamic and conventional finance products • Measures to be undertaken for future growth and competitiveness • Emerging risks in the IFSI and the preparedness of institutions offering Islamic financial services to deal with such risks • The role of the regulatory framework in ensuring sustained resilience of institutions offering Islamic financial services \n\n\n\n12:30 – 14:00\nLunch\n\n\n14:00 – 15:30\n\nSession 2 : The FinTech Innovative Progression: Boon or Bane For Traditional Financial Institutions? \nThis Session aims to look into and discuss the widespread launch of financial technology platforms globally\, which has begun to change the shape of how traditional banking and financial transactions are carried out\, particularly by the age group of millennials. More so\, FinTech and P2P platforms are beginning to partake financing activities that the traditional banking models have generally not participated deeply in. These include microfinance to individuals and business financing to small- and medium-sized enterprises. How has this development affected the traditional financial institutions – do FinTech and P2P platforms complement\, or substitute\, traditional banking and finance services? This session aims to highlight: • The rise of FinTech / P2P platforms and their impact on the financial market place • The response of the traditional financial institutions to the FinTech Boom • The relevance and applicability of Sharīʻah-compliant contracts to FinTech transactions • The enabling “regulatory sandbox” guidelines for innovations in Sharīʻah-compliant FinTech / P2P offerings • Boosting SME Financing through Fin Tech and P2P Platforms \n\n\n\n15:30 – 16:00\nCoffee Break & Networking\n\n\n16:00 – 17:30\n\nSession 3 : Implementing New Regulatory Reforms: Balancing Between the Soundness and Competitiveness of Institutions offering Islamic Financial Services \nThe Session aims to discuss the post-financial crisis regulatory reforms\, which have underscored the importance of systemic risk and a macro-prudential approach towards financial-sector risk management\, as well as unrolled a more stringent capital and liquidity adequacy framework. Regulatory and supervisory authorities (RSAs) have now started to implement these reforms and institutions offering Islamic financial services (IIFS)\, being under their regulatory mandate\, also have to comply with such guidelines. How enabled is the market infrastructure in supporting the IIFS to meet these revised financial regulations? What types of financial safety-nets arrangements and liquidity management instruments are available for the IIFS? Given a condition where there is a lack of supporting Sharīʻah-compliant instruments\, how do the RSAs adopt flexibility (if any) to accommodate IIFS? What is the rule of thumb when it comes to implementing regulations with a view to balancing between soundness and competitiveness of the IIFS? How do RSAs treat IIFS within their broader macro-prudential framework? This session aims to highlight:\n• Key highlights of the Basel III / IFSB second generation prudential standards and their impact on IIFS\n• The challenges for the IIFS in meeting these new financial regulations\n• Alternative regulatory approaches by RSAs for IIFS\n• Macro-prudential approaches for RSAs towards IIFS \n\n\n\n19:00 – 22:00\n\nIFSB Summit 2017 Gala Dinner  \nVenue : Khalidiya Palace Rayhaan by Rotana\, Abu Dhabi \n\n\n\nDay 3\n24/10/2017\nIFSB SUMMIT 2017 (DAY 2)\n\n\n08:30 – 14:00\nExhibition\n\n\n08:30 – 09:30\nWelcome Coffee\n\n\n09:30 – 11:00\n\nSession 4 : Islamic Capital Markets: Towards Greater Harmonisation in Cross Border Activities \nIn the post-financial crisis years\, Islamic capital market (ICM) has also become a viable alternative source for raising funds by sovereigns\, quasi-sovereigns (Ministries/Central Banks\, etc.) government-related entities and market players\, with Ṣukūk being a particularly preferred instrument. These funds have been raised to support a variety of budgetary needs including to fund development expenditures\, meet working capital needs\, and finance infrastructure projects\, etc. The fund raising has not been restricted to Muslim-majority countries\, and a number of non-Muslim majority states have also participated in ICM (e.g. via issuing Ṣukūk\, listing Sharīʻah-compliant funds\, etc). A key facilitator for ICM\, going forward\, will be greater harmonisation in the issuance and trading of Islamic securities on cross border platforms. This session aims to highlight:\n• The role of Islamic capital market in facilitating fund-raising for issuers\n• The challenges emanating from divergent practices between jurisdictions in relation to ICM products\n• The opportunities for greater cross-border collaboration and business expansion\n• The need for harmonising disclosure practices between jurisdictions in relation to ICM products \n\n\n\n11:00 – 11:30\nCoffee Break & Networking\n\n\n11:30 – 13:00\n\nSession 5 : Wrap-up Session: The Way Forward for Islamic Finance: Strengthening Value Proposition\, Sustaining Resilience  \nThe stakeholders of the IFSI\, each\, need to play their due role in reinvigorating momentum in the IFSI while sustaining its stability and resilience. RSAs need to continue the development and implementation of facilitative prudential\, legal and regulatory architecture for the IIFS. The market players themselves need to ensure sound risk management principles are in place keeping in view the specificities of Islamic financial transactions. The international standard setters should continue pushing forward the reform agenda by way of providing further guiding principles and technical notes on diverse subject matters in relation to the IFSI including on resolution\, recovery and insolvency structures of the IIFS\, Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) safeguards in IIFS transactions\, upholding of consumer protection in IFSI products and services\, etc. This session aims to highlight:\n• The key challenges and issues for the IFSI from the current global economic and political conditions and measures to address them\n• The role of the various IFSI stakeholders in faring through this period with a view to achieving growth and sustainability\n• The expected challenges for the IFSI (if any) in the near future\n• In general\, the way forward for the IFSI to weather through turbulent times and achieve greater heights \n\n\n\n13:00 – 14:00\nLunch
