What exactly is ethical finance? Is Islamic finance ethical? Is ethical finance Islamic? This book examines a range of financial institutions in Britain within the ethical sector, considering the nature of their principles and practices, and how they relate to Islamic models and to Muslim communities.
What exactly is ethical finance? Is Islamic finance ethical? Is ethical finance Islamic? Islamic finance is routinely described as ethical. This reflects the fact that self-described ''ethical'' finance is a large and growing sector of the market. It has a very positive image with which Islamic financial services seek to associate themselves. Yet the claim that ''Islamic'' and ''ethical'' are synonymous is rarely seriously examined, and nor is the claim that there exists a consistent and generally understood definition of ''ethical'' practice. This book examines a wide range of financial institutions in the UK which fall broadly within the ethical sector, considering the nature of their principles and practices, and how they relate to Islamic models and to Muslim communities.
