Usage of Islamic finance products in the global financial system is progressing rapidly. The Islamic banks are offering an expanding range of services and products to corporates.

It explains the structure, and use of the Islamic banking products in the areas of trade finance, working capital finance, loan syndications, guarantees, letter of credit, etc.
