Low oil prices unlikely to boost GCC sukuk issuance in 2016 | GulfNews.com

Low oil prices unlikely to boost GCC sukuk issuance in 2016 | GulfNews.com:

"Global sukuk issuance is unlikely to pick up pace this year despite expectations that revenue shortfall from plummeting oil prices would prompt a barrage of issuance in oil exporting countries, according to rating agency Standard & Poor’s.

While some commentators believed low oil prices would spur governments in oil-exporting countries to tap the sukuk market for funding to maintain current and capital spending, total issuance actually dropped in 2015 compared with the previous year."
