Over two days from 15th and 16th December 2010, the Global Economic Directions IV conference will intensely look at ways to comply with the Islamic Sharia and how financial institutions should operate in relation to the guidelines.

Three previous editions of the conference have been named 'Global Economic Directions I II and III' and have analysed the ways in which companies should follow certain rules. The fourth edition of the forum will be titled 'The Global Economic Crisis from the Perspective of Islamic Economics' and is asking members to submit articles on the subject with the leading papers to be presented at the event.
