He added that this listing is an important milestone that supports the bank’s objective of sustaining strong liquidity and financing capabilities to serve customers and the community.<\/p>\n

Ali said, \u201cSharjah Islamic Bank\u2019s new Sukuk listing reflects the continued confidence that regional issuers place in Dubai\u2019s capital markets.
