Pakistan is attempting something rarely succeeded by others – it wants its financial system to be fully Shariah compliant by 2028. If anyone were to succeed, it would likely be Pakistan – the government and regulators are moving full steam ahead to achieve this herculean task.

The State Bank of Pakistan and the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan are preparing the regulatory foundation for this major transformation while financial institutions are overhauling their business models. This has led to greater adoption of Islamic financial services nationwide across different segments.

The industry has also seen a steady rise in innovative offerings, with recent Sukuk issuances and a green energy fund highlighting the adaptability and forwardlooking vision of Pakistan’s Islamic finance industry

It is against this backdrop, that the 11^th IFN Pakistan Forum, supported by the State Bank of Pakistan and other key regulators, will gather the country’s elite to discuss and debate the important questions facing the Republic’s transition to becoming fully Islamic within just two years.

In 2026 we continue to uphold our commitment to organize and deliver bespoke IFN Forums globally in targeted key markets that require interaction and discussion among the industry’s leaders.

Our IFN Forums are diverse events which combine panel discussions, dialogues, private and targeted networking sessions. Our priority is to ensure that we deliver quality events while achieving the highest desired outcome in Islamic finance excellence.

IFN Forums allow you to engage with these markets by ensuring a captive audience and outreach to local and global audiences.

All IFN Forums will be recorded and posted online within a week of the event.
