Despite challenges, the shariah-based banking or financial system is getting popular day by day in Bangladesh and elsewhere in the world due to having its special and innovative features. Islamic Finance and Investment Limited (IFIL) organised the workshop on ‘Shariah Based Banking’ at the Institution of Diploma Engineers, Bangladesh (IDEB) in the capital on Saturday. The workshop was aimed at improving knowledge and presenting the significance of the system for its employees. More than 100 executive officers from its head office and local offices took part in the event. Inaugurating the workshop, IFIL Chairman Shibbir Mahmud said the IFIL would go forward in future through ensuring Islamic shariah compliance. The shariah-based banking system encourages expansion of business and trade, and discourages the interest-based banking system as it brings welfare for the people. The world as well as our country is advancing towards the shariah-based financial system by overcoming all sorts of obstacles.
