Formation of the Islamic Accounting & Finance SIG

ARI during its monthly meeting today has approved the formation of the Islamic Accounting and Finance Special Interest Group. This latest SIG will be headed by Dr Nawal Kassim (ARI Associate Research Fellow)and assisted by Associate Prof Dr Azam, ARI's research fellow from the Centre of Islamic Thought and Understanding. It is greatly hoped that the formation of this SIG will enhance the quantity and quality of ARI research in this topic. Dr Nawal's research interest has always been in Islamic Accounting and Shari'ah Auditing. Meanwhile, Dr Azam's interest is in the area of Islamic Finance. Hence, the integration of both expertise would spur good quality research for ARI.
