The Thomson Reuters Sukuk Perceptions and Forecast 2015 survey of 44 lead arrangers and 106 investors reveals most expect a boost in Sukuk issuance in 2015 of between $150 billion and $174.9 billion. Total global outstanding Sukuk issuance stands at $241 billion, with around $110 billion Sukuk issued in 2014. Global outstanding Sukuk issuance is expected to grow to $907 billion by 2020. The recovery from last year’s low has been driven by more jurisdictions issuing Sukuk. Financial institutions continue to dominate all corporate issuances. Supply growth into 2015 will be driven by financing needs for infrastructure projects especially in the GCC and the wider Middle East region.
