Tariq Alrifai has been involved in Islamic finance for over 18 years, and was previously the Global Director of Islamic Indices at S&P Dow Jones Indices. But in 2008, Tariq was hit hard by the 2008 financial crisis. As a professional working in the field, he was shocked at what happened, not because it could happen, but because he couldn’t see the signs of it coming.
He spent the next 5 years reading and researching past financial crises and the history of the financial system, and in his book 'Islamic Finance and the New Financial System' argues why modern finance should consider looking at Islamic finance for solutions.
