Unlike conventional bonds which represent assets, *Sukuk* grants the investor the right of equity in tangible assets. They also offer investors the chance of diversifying their assets more than those provided in conventional assets. This is fine-tuned with the precepts of *Shari'ah* which mainly prohibits billing and interest payment. In this way, the funds raised by *Sukuk* can serve to finance economic initiatives concerning infrastructure and other meritorious projects. The issuance of *Sukuk* has actually proven its resilience during the recent periods of turbulence in global capital markets. However, the *Sukuk* market remains a niche with a huge growth potential. The rate of growth of *Sukuk* is currently 10 to 15% in global financial markets. Malaysia as well as Golf countries are the largest issuers of *Sukuk* in the world. Nowadays, *Sukuk* appears as an interesting alternative opportunity to meet the needs of different economic agents in funding projects for economic and social development. Those economic agents can be the state, banks and other financial institutions and even firms. Moreover, the development of *Sukuk* allows Islamic institutions, such as *Awqaf* , to improve and reach its various socioeconomic objectives. On the one hand, a special type of *Sukuk,* known as *Waqfique Sukuk*, can be issued so as to create *Waqf *fund. On the other hand, the *Awqaf*institutions can issue different type of *Sukuk* such as *Al-Mudharaba Sukuk* in order to gather funds which are necessary for their wealth growth. Henceforth, in bringing together academics, experts and professionals in Islamic finance, the international forum of Sfax on Islamic finance in its third edition, comes as a reflection on the opportunities that Islamic finance offers through the issuance of *Sukuk* to promote economic and social development of Muslim countries. This Sfax appointment is also an opportunity for young researchers to present their work in this field and discuss various issues related to the symposium's theme, focusing on theoretical, empirical and methodological aspects. It is also an opportunity for professionals in Islamic finance to present their views and aspirations. *Suggested topics:* *1- Finance and development : an Islamic perspective * *2- Theoretical and operational aspect of Islamic Sukuk * *3- Islamic Sukuk for the development Awqaf proprieties * *4- The role of Sukuk in the establishment of Awqaf * *5- Sukuk for the development of infrastructure : sovereign Sukuk * *6- The role of Sukuk in project finance * *7- Sukuk issue in international Islamic financial market: Cases studies* *Practical arrangements* Young researchers and a Ph.D. students wishing to participate in the forum are requested to submit their proposals for papers, written in Arabic, English or French (summary of two pages in PDF form) to the following address: pcifi2...@gmail.com <pcifi2...@gmail.com> Detailed information on the organization of the meeting and how to participate are available on the site of the forum: http://www.cfi.aer-fsegs.org/ For further information, please contact: mahmoud.n...@fsegs.rnu.tn The best selected communications will be published in a collective proceedings after the habitual evaluation process. *Calendar* · Deadline for submission of abstract of the paper: March 30, 2014 · Decision of the Scientific Committee: April 20, 2014 · Deadline for submission of selected texts: Mai 10, 2014 *Steering committee * Prof. Borhen TRIGUI (Dean of Faculty of Economic Sciences and Management, Sfax, Tunisia) Dr. Abdessalem ElBorzogui (Dean of Faculty of Economic Sciences and Management of Zawiya, Zawiya University, Libya) *Scientific Committee:* President : Prof. Ridha SAADALLAH (President of ASTECIS, Tunisia) Vice President : Dr. Lotfi Elhedi Abou Zaid (Head of Economic Department of Zawya University, Libya) Members : Prof. Mohamed EL-TAHIR EL MESSAWI (International Islamic University,Malaysia) Prof. Mohamed TURKI (FSEG, Sfax) Dr. Abdelhafidh MIRAH (Zawiya University, Libya) Prof. Dhafer SAIDANE (Lille University, France) Prof. Jameleddine ZIADI (FSEG, Sfax) Dr. Mustapha Sassi EFTOUHA (Zawiya University, Libya) Prof. Mohamed BOUDJELLAL (M'sila University, Algérie) Prof. Anis JARBOUI (High Administration Institute, Sfax) Dr. AbouRawi Issa KABKAB (Zawiya University, Libya) Prof. Omar KETTANI (Mohamed V University, Rabat, Marroc) Dr. Issa Abdallah ELGHNOUDI (Zawiya University, Libya) Prof. Jamel GHARBI (Lille University, France) Prof. Abdelfatteh BOURI (FSEG- Sfax) Dr. Mosbah Mohamed ELAKARI(ElJamhourya bank, Libya) Prof. Fathi ABID (FSEG-Sfax) Prof. Nejib HACHICHA (FSEG-Sfax) Dr. Ali Ramadhan CHNIBICH (Central bank of Libya, Libya) Prof. Hichem GRISSA (Zitouna University) Dr. Ezzeddine KHOUJA (PDG Zitouna Bank, Tunisie) Dr. Hussein Abdelmoula BARAKET (Zawiya University, Libya) Prof. Borhen NEFFATI (Zitouna University) Prof. Mounir TLILI (Zitouna University) Dr. Abdessalem Mouloud KANA (Sabha University, Libya) Rami ABDELKAFI (BID, Jeddah, Arabie Saoudite) Prof. Habib CHABCHOUB (Director IHEC-Sfax) Dr. Omar Maouloud ABDELHAMID (president of libyan savant League, Libya) Nejmeddine GHORBEL (Expert and Researcher in Islamic Economics and Regional Development). -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Kantakji Group" group.
