The new solution is designed to cater to the growing demand for Islamic finance and wealth management services in Canada.
The Rise of Islamic Finance in Canada
Islamic finance has been gaining popularity in Canada over the past decade, driven by the growing Muslim population and increasing demand for Shariah-compliant financial services. According to a report by the Islamic Finance Council of Canada, the country’s Islamic finance market is expected to grow by 10% annually, reaching $1.4 billion by 2025.
Manzil’s Entry into Islamic Finance
Manzil, a FinTech startup based in Toronto, has entered the Islamic finance market with the launch of its wealth management solution through subsidiary Manzil Wealth. The company acquired Winnipeg-based Canadian Islamic Wealth in September, marking its first foray into Islamic finance.
The Rise of FinTech in the Muslim Community
The Muslim community has seen a significant surge in the adoption of FinTech services in recent years. This growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for financial services that cater to the unique needs of Muslim individuals and families. FinTech companies have responded to this demand by developing innovative solutions that address specific financial challenges faced by Muslims.
Manzil Wealth is a global financial services company that provides Sharia-compliant financial products and services to individuals and institutions.
