Hailed by the Islamic Globe as ?Industry Stalwart, Mohammed Khnifer is regarded as part of a new generation of young Islamic banking practitioners, who comes with solid academic and professional background in Islamic finance and Debt Capital Market (DCM).

With highly rare combination of banking and Debt Capital Market-related Shariah knowledge and product structuring, Mr. Khnifer was interviewed by The ECONOMIST & the Financial Times. He was featured by Bloomberg/BusinessWeek as "Sukuk Structurer", FT as Shariah Adviser and Thomson Reuters as "Islamic DCM Banker". He brings a well-diversified international Islamic Debt Capital Market experience from his career at ICD. He was fortunate enough to be part of the pioneering team who delivered Africa's first sovereign sukuk to the international capital market (Senegal Sukuk) as well as the sovereign Sukuk issuance by Ivory Coast and Jordan (in which he was the Transaction Manager for the latter). Mr. Khnifer is mostly remembered in the Islamic finance industry as the person who sparked the Great Debate over Goldman Sachs Tawarruq Sukuk, resulting in postponing the issuance for 3 years. His experience with Goldman Sukuk was depicted in Harris Irfan's book: Heaven's Bankers: Inside the Hidden World Of Islamic Finance. ------TV Interviews (Youtube channel): https://goo.gl/iXqZAU Twitter:@mkhnifer
