SHARIAH FINANCE ALERT: Standard and Poors Launches Islamic Index
Islamic supremacism takes another leap.
Standard & Poor's starts TSX Islamic index
Standard & Poor's is launching an index of large Canadian stocks with criteria defined by Islamic law – no companies with businesses in financial services, entertainment, alcohol, pork-related products or tobacco.
The index operator said Wednesday the Shariah-compliant version of the S&P/TSX 60 "will create new opportunities for Islamic investors to benchmark their Canadian investments, and for asset managers to create new investment products serving the Islamic community."
The S&P/TSX 60 Shariah index joins Standard & Poor's Shariah-compliant indexes in 51 other markets, including the S&P 500 Shariah, S&P Europe 350 Shariah, S&P Japan 500 Shariah and S&P CNX Nifty (Indian market) Shariah.
Sick.
