The Global Muslim Travel Index 2016 features the UAE as one of the most favoured Muslim travel destinations and the alliance intends to address this segment of the market ably. The properties to be acquired will be financed via an Islamic Finance vehicle known as "Sukuk", a Shariah-compliant bond, to the tune of $1 trillion. "We believe in interfaith harmony and cater to all beliefs," says Khurram Shroff. "For the Muslim traveller, providing Shariah-compliant vacation homes with standardised Qibla direction and prayer mats in each of our apartments will enhance our offerings in this sector."
As an initiative that leverages multiple emerging trends, from Dubai's status as a destination for tourists and business travellers to the popularity of short-term rentals, the announcement will propel IBC Group to the forefront of a growing segment within the hospitality sector. The short term prospects of the venture are particularly promising, in the light of Expo 2020. However, with the regulatory framework governing the Dubai business ecosystem becoming increasingly more lucrative for investors and corporations, the possibilities for medium and long-term growth also hold significant promise. - sandhya@khaleejtimes.com
