“Efforts to promote Islamic finance in Pakistan are commendable and establishment of research centers such as Centre for Islamic Finance at prestigious business school at LUMS is the first step in the right direction. It is heartening to see group of young and rising researchers undertaking serious research on Islamic economics and finance. It is hoped that the Center will play a critical role in the generation and dissemination of solid knowledge on Islamic economics and finance through research, seminars, and conferences.”
