Leading stakeholders of the global Islamic Insurance industry are confirmed to take part in today's conference in Dubai to discuss the future of the market and the next steps that are necessary to take for the next phase of the industry's market expansion.

Set to begin today, April 10 2011, the sixth annual World Takaful Conference (WTC 2011) will last for a whole 2 days at the Dusit Thai Dubai.

Takaful has been very successful in the global insurance market in recent years, and with such rapid growth comes the need for reassessing the framework by the major players in the industry to reevaluate strategies, including tapping into the emerging economies model.

According to the managing director of the Conference, David McLean, the conference will focus on Managing Risk, Innovating Products, and Driving Growth. The theme aims to capture an ever-increasing potential in the global Takaful industry, and further boost renewed interest in the international Shari'ah-compliant insurance instrument.

An addition to this year's conference includes the World Takaful Report 2011. Titled 'Transforming Operating Performance', and developed with Ernst & Young , the report takes an in-depth look at the key trends transforming the industry, a strategic route for the market leaders, and explores opportunities in the emerging markets landscape.
