| What the Industry Leaders are saying about WTC 2011 |

Dr. Ahmed Al Janahi
Managing Director
Noor Takaful
and Deputy Group
Chief Executive Officer
Noor Investment Group |
“The global expansion of Takaful still faces a number of challenges which we must deal with as an industry, if we are to become a powerful competitor to conventional insurance. Over the next year, we will have a renewed opportunity to address challenges, capitalize on opportunities and implement strategies that would advance the takaful industry to record levels. The World Takaful Conference continues to bring together a tremendous number of very insightful and influential people trying to tackle the many obstacles hindering the true expansion of this sector globally, and we at Noor Takaful promise to continue to contribute to the development of this vital sub-sector.”

Dr. Saleh Malaikah
Vice Chairman &
Chief Executive Officer
SALAMA Group |
“SALAMA has been a partner of the World Takaful Conference since the inception of the conference 6 years ago. As a pioneer in the industry, and as a leading provider of Shari’ah-compliant insurance solutions, SALAMA is proud to be once again a Platinum Strategic Partner of the World Takaful Conference in 2011. The World Takaful Conference has been successfully showcasing the achievements and innovations of the international Takaful industry for the past 6 years, bringing together the key players and market leaders in the global Takaful industry to meet and debate the most pressing and critical issues of the industry.” |

“The Takaful industry is significantly less developed than the broader Islamic finance industry. If we are to take advantage of the opportunities that are emerging on a global scale, we must perfect an industry-wide Shari’a compliant corporate governance mechanism, that people can put their trust in. A decision has to be made now to move to the next level and to pro-actively seize opportunities based on customer-centric approaches. The World Takaful Conference is one of many strategic platforms that brings us together to discuss solutions to the gaps in the industry. It is a thought provoking and extremely productive conference for global industry leaders, discussing the prospects for the post global crisis era and the road ahead.” |

Hussein Al Meeza

Chief Executive Officer

“With the global Takaful industry gathering strong momentum in the new global financial landscape, it is becoming increasingly vital for major industry players to turn challenges into opportunities. The Takaful industry has moved on from its niche status to wider global engagement. We have been observing and actively participating in interesting developments that will take the industry to the next level. Our long term association with the annual World Takaful Conference, which has over the years become the major platform for industry leaders to converge, highlights Aman’s commitment to its values and vision as a leading Takaful operator in the region.” |

Ghassan Marrouche
General Manager
Takaful Emarat
|
“With global takaful premiums predicted to grow to US$7 billion by 2015, there is a pressing need to engage in a meaningful dialogue on the development of the rapidly-expanding takaful industry. The World Takaful Conference 2011 presents a unique opportunity to address issues of regulation, changing affluence trends, and the human resources shortfall in the Islamic financial sector, which will ensure we create a robust foundation for the industry’s continued growth. As Life & Health Partner of the World Takaful Conference 2011, Takaful Emarat is pleased to raise awareness about the importance of life and health takaful products to the industry as a whole.”
