A fresh approach to transactions in the Middle East
Eversheds' global Islamic finance group specialises in providing advice to lenders and borrowers in connection with a range of Sharia'h compliant products and transactions.
We have a practice that covers Europe, the Middle East and the Far East through our offices in London and Qatar. The global span of our practice means that we are able to pass on the benefit of global best practice to our clients.

We see the Middle East as a key market for our Islamic Finance Group.
