Exigency for developing Readings Series on Islamic economics and finance arises from the dearth of literature and or textbooks meant for undergraduate and graduate students at universities in most of the countries of the world particularly in Bangladesh. None of the public and private universities in Bangladesh have Islamic economics and finance programs providing undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate programs. In Bangladesh there are ten full-fledged Islamic banks and most of the conventional banks maintain either dedicated Islamic banking branches or windows spreading all over the country. In absence of formal education at higher educational institutions particularly in Bangladesh, most of the Islamic banks and non-bank financial institutions rely on their own training institutions in providing non-degree short and medium term training courses for their staffs to carry forward day-to-day operations. As a result, workforces in these Islamic financial institutions lack fundamental as well as analytical knowledge and problem solving skills necessary for handling promotional and Shariah issues they encounter. This calls for introducing undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate programs at universities to prepare and supply continuously appropriately trained and skilled workforces to the Islamic finance industry. Reading series on Islamic Economics, History of Islamic Economic Thought, Islamic Financial System, Islamic Banking, Islamic Capital Market, Sukuk, Takaful etc. can provide proxy reading materials to begin with allowing time to develop textbooks subsequently. Readings in Islamic Capital Market (the 2nd of the ten readings series in pipeline) is a compilation of judiciously selected professional articles, research based working papers and lecture notes of highly regarded specialists published in journals and periodicals of international repute. While selecting any resource materials for a chapter from among host of similar articles, due attentions have been paid to the recent contributions as much as possible, authority of the contributors as well as standard and reputation of the journals/periodicals in which these are published. An overview of the structure of the book below may provide instant sense of the design and content covered in this readings series. The series is structured in four parts: Part I: Overview of Islamic capital market, Part II: Shariah framework and governance, Part III: Products structure and risk management, and Part IV: The challenges, issues and the way forward for Islamic capital market.
