The International Islamic Liquidity Management Corporation (IILM), in collaboration with the Oman Banks Association (OBA) and with the support of the Central Bank of Oman, successfully organised its first-ever Capacity Building Programme in Oman, hosted by Ahli Bank in Muscat, Oman.
Themed “Unlocking Islamic Liquidity in Oman: Strategies, Innovation & Resilience”, the one-day programme held on 9 September 2025 brought together approximately 80 regulators, senior executives, and leading practitioners from the Islamic finance industry to discuss strategies, tools, and innovations in liquidity management tailored to the Omani market.
As part of the IILM’s broader mandate to support the development of Islamic financial markets globally, the programme marks a significant milestone in deepening its engagement with Oman’s financial sector, encouraging greater participation of Omani banks and financial institutions in the IILM’s Ṣukūk programme. The event also featured Opening Remarks by Mrs. Asia Al Raisi, Acting Deputy Chief Economist for Investment and Market Operations, Central Bank of Oman.
Speaking at the event, Mohamad Safri Shahul Hamid, Chief Executive Officer of the IILM, said:
Today’s programme marks an important milestone in the IILM’s journey to support the development of Islamic liquidity management across borders. By engaging directly with the Omani market, we seek to raise awareness, strengthen technical capacity, and encourage greater participation from local financial institutions in the IILM Ṣukūk programme. Notably, Oman’s participation in the IILM’s issuances has grown remarkably from just 2% in 2023 to approximately 15% this year. This reflects the Sultanate’s rising significance in Islamic finance, and we look forward to deepening our collaboration to further enhance resilience and innovation in the market.
