Islamic Finance and the English Courts
Islamic Finance and the English Courts
22nd February 2018
On 22 February, we held a very informative event on Islamic Finance and the English Courts. Our speaker was Dr Scott Morrison, Reader in Commercial Law at Oxford Brookes University. Dr Morrison provided a background to Islamic finance, including the various instruments used, notable deals that have taken place in the City, the key players, and size of the industry. He then gave an overview of why England & Wales is a favoured jurisdiction for Islamic finance disputes and discussed several important cases that have been heard in the English courts, the lessons learned, and suggestions for best practice. This was followed by a lively Q&A session with comments requesting similar sessions to be held again. As requested by several attendees, Dr Morrison’s presentation can be found HERE. We thank Dr Morrison for his enjoyable and enlightening talk, and for TT International for kindly hosting the event.
