Abstract

Religious funds are becoming a popular alternative for Asian Muslims wishing to investment money under the strict religious codes of the Koran. Funds operating on the Islamic teachings of the Koran do not invest in firms which are involved in gambling, entertainment, tobacco, alcohol or pork. The returns of such funds have proved to often be higher than traditional investment funds, resulting in the establishment of an Islamic Market Index by Dow Jones in the US.
