Acknowledgements

When I first started to research Islamic finance, the thing I missed most was a book that would give me some indication of how this new type of finance fitted in with other parts of the financial industry. With that not being available, I started to compile a large selection of notes, which eventually made their way into this book. It has been discussed and debated with many people around the world, and it has been proofread and commented on by some of my best friends. I have listened to feedback from students, scholars and practitioners and hope I have not omitted any valuable information.

It all started when I was living in Bahrain and Kuwait, and I owe a lot of what I know about Islamic finance to Professor Simon Archer who supervised my PhD thesis and his co-supervisor Professor Rifaat Abdel Karim. The list of other people who have helped and supported me is too long to include in just a page, and I would be too worried lest I accidentally omitted anyone. Suffice to say, you know who you are and you have my heartfelt thanks and appreciation. Any mistakes, errors and omissions that remain are mine.
