The portfolio of MEGA brands represents the landmark industry conferences and our clients are the leading players in the international financial markets.
WHAT THE INDUSTRY LEADERS ARE SAYING ABOUT WTC 2010
“The takaful industry currently boasts very healthy growth prospects globally. The World Takaful Conference comes at a crucial time for the Islamic finance industry at large. It brings together global experts to engage in thought-provoking critical conversations and debates, about the most pressing issues contributing to the growth of the industry such as regulations, changing demographics, and growing affluence trends around the world”.
Parvaiz SiddiqChief Executive OfficerNoor Takaful
“With the years ahead looking exciting and challenging, the global Takaful industry is in need of consistent commitment to the tenets of Takaful. Right from our incorporation in 1979 in Dubai, UAE as pioneers in the Takaful industry, to our present day distinction as the world’s largest Takaful and Re-Takaful Company, we at SALAMA- Arab Islamic Insurance have always stayed true to our values and principles. We have supported the World Takaful Conference since its inception not only as a show of our commitment to the industry but also because we have witnessed its importance in forging meaningful dialogues. The 5th Annual WTC is a “must attend” for all stakeholders.”
Rafiq HalaniGeneral Manager – General & Health TakafulSalama Islamic Arab Insurance Co. (P.S.C.)
“After four editions, the World Takaful Conference (WTC) has become one of the main Takaful events around the world. We in Takaful Re are committed to the Takaful industry; it is our duty to support this event and make it even more successful. With the recent recession, and questions about Islamic Finance in general, and the Takaful industry in particular, Takaful operators and professionals are requested to question their business models and practices, respond to the legitimate customers’ questions; and also pave the way for more differentiation from conventional insurance in order to think and act Takaful. The WTC is the best forum to discuss such matters; we would like to see the delegates making the WTC sessions an even more rewarding experience.”
