Islamic Coin, shariah-compliant digital money offering ethics-first financial services for the Muslim community and beyond, is getting more and more support worldwide, including from members of the Dubai Ruling Family. As announced by team representatives, Maryam bint Suhail bin Obaid Al Maktoum has joined Islamic Coin as an advisor. She will help with the platform’s mission to empower the world's Muslim community with a robust financial instrument for the digital age.
She is a member of Dubai’s Ruling Family and is well-known in the region for her patronage of the arts, architecture, and sports. She holds a degree in business administration and is an active participant in major engineering projects operated by the Al Maktoum family.
“It is a great pleasure to be part of the team and work together on building new financial tools that will lead the way to an even greater, fairer Muslim world and beyond,” she commented.
Islamic Coin Advisory and Executive Boards: Ruling Families, entrepreneurs, and philanthropists
