Islamic Finance, still a long way to go before becoming mainstream

Islamic finance has grown in leaps and bounds in the last few years to reach US2 trillion dollars worth of assets, still small change in today's global financial markets. So we talk to Bashar Al Natoor, the Global Head of Islamic Finance at Fitch Ratings to find out what are the reasons why its still niche. We also ask him about Malaysia's role in Islamic finance especially in Sukuk since we already have 50% market share and how can we evolve to be a global hub.
