Irish Stock Exchange Leads Global Sukuk Market with 38 Percent Share

Latest News

As of the end of the third quarter of 2024, the Irish Stock Exchange (Euronext Dublin) accounted for 38% of the global sukuk market, down from 41% a year earlier, according to Fitch Ratings. The exchange has listed approximately $90 billion in hard-currency sukuk, marking a 5.2% year-on-year increase. Despite favorable regulatory conditions, the Islamic finance sector in Ireland remains limited due to a small Muslim population and a lack of fully-fledged Islamic banks. The listed sukuk on Euronext are primarily dominated by issuers from the UAE, Turkiye, and Saudi Arabia, with a significant preference for US dollar-denominated securities.
