@harris_irfan Harris, I will not get into the bit coin argument but the first part of your statement is provocative. As a non Muslim I only understand a small part of the philosophy of Islamic law but I do believe in the concept and benefits of Islamic finance, if used correctly.

@iain_w_anderson @stonewalluk @Nancy_M_K Congratulations Iain, you will be a great Chair.

@harris_irfan @QuorumCentre As I meet your profile .... In the 10+yrs I have championed Isl Fin, I have met many Muslims who do not believe in or have doubts about the concept. This has impacted on UK retail services. Hopefully FinTech will provide solutions and inclusion for the UK and global community.
