QIB (UK) Asset Management
Background
Conventional finance has been practiced for many centuries, more recently breakthroughs in financial theory in the 60's and 70's have led to the creation of Asset Management as a discipline as the concepts of modern Portfolio Theory spawned a series of fundamental laws that changed the way professional investors viewed portfolios.
Whilst Islamic finance can claim roots that go back even before the time of the Prophet, the area of Asset Management has been less developed and slow to take up the innovations pioneered on the conventional side. We firmly believe that irrespective of faith or belief, investors should demand, and be able to receive, expert and professional help with their investment needs. Advancements in Islamic finance over the last four years have meant investors who want to invest and follow their faith can now do so as the breadth of product, range of risk/return available and the cost of provision often rank pari passu with their conventional counterparts.
