Abstract

In the realm of present-day economics and finance, two significant paradigms, Islamic Finance and Sustainable, Responsible and Impact (SRI) investing, have emerged as strong forces shaping investment ideologies and strategies. Although emerged as distinct fields in global finance, they potentially complement each other. Notably, the financial worth of Islamic Finance is around USD 4.5 trillion globally with an annual growth of 11 to 12 percent, while the financial worth of SRI investing is almost 10 times higher than that of Islamic finance. They have a joint core value proposition that aligns financial decisions with ethical principles while emphasizing a positive impact on society and the environment. Even though their origins and operational structure differ, it is worthwhile to explore the intersection and potential bridges between them.
