Nasdaq Dubai has officially listed a USD 500 million Sukuk issued by Sharjah Islamic Bank (SIB), marking the sixth issuance under the bank’s established USD 3 billion Trust Certificate Issuance Programme since 2013.
The Sukuk, set to mature in 2029, garnered significant interest from both global and regional investors, being oversubscribed three times over with orders totaling USD 1.5 billion. This strong demand underscores the attractiveness of the UAE’s vibrant capital market on a global scale. Including this latest issuance, SIB's total listings on Nasdaq Dubai now amount to USD 1.5 billion, encompassing two senior unsecured Sukuk and one Additional Tier 1 Capital Sukuk.
The total value of Sukuk listed on Nasdaq Dubai now reaches USD 93.89 billion, reinforcing its position as a leading global marketplace for Sukuk issuances. Combined with bonds, the total value of listed debt instruments on Nasdaq Dubai stands at USD 134.1 billion.
To commemorate the listing, HE Ahmed Saad Ibrahim, Deputy CEO of Sharjah Islamic Bank, rang the bell at Nasdaq Dubai's market-opening ceremony, accompanied by Hamed Ali, CEO of Nasdaq Dubai and Dubai Financial Market (DFM).
