Oman continues to impress us all with its healthy double-digit growth, forward-thinking policies and proactive industry engagement – the Sultanate has built a holistic ecosystem with a promising Islamic asset management sector, active Sukuk market and growing Takaful segment.

The Financial Services Authority and the Central Bank of Oman have been at the forefront pushing the industry forward with robust regulations, a clear vision and continuous engagement with stakeholders.

Thanks to the regulators’ unwavering support, Islamic banking assets now account for approximately one fifth of total banking assets, and its market share will likely continue to expand – analysts project Shariah banking assets in the Sultanate to hit US$40 billion in 2026 riding on new banking regulations and guided by its ambitious Vision 2040.

A decade since we first introduced the IFN Oman Forum and the event has grown from strength to strength becoming the most important Islamic finance event of the year – we are delighted to be back in Muscat with the 11^th edition, as always with the backing of regulators and the Sultanate’s leading Islamic financial institutions.

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.
