The Bonds, Loans & Sukuk Middle East was already the premier financing conference in the Middle East but has grown in importance with each passing year. The majority of our key clients and all of the global and regional banks are there. It’s a great opportunity to network, catch up, and get your finger on the pulse of the Middle East market.

I never thought that GFC could improve on previous years but they managed to attract an unprecedented 1,200 delegates at Bonds, Loans & Sukuk Middle East, representing issuers, borrowers and banks.

The Bonds, Loans & Sukuk Middle East Conference gives you credible information about what is actually happening in the financial markets… both pros and cons, all under one roof… which you don’t get at any other conference.
Neeraj AgrawalCrescent Petroleum
If attending the Bonds, Loans & Sukuk Middle East conference is vital to our network, the 1-1 meetings are by far the best way to build long-lasting relationships in our industry. The GFC team impressed me with their attentive and professional service.

6. Bonds, Loans & Sukuk Middle East is the Gold Standard of Conferences. If you were to ask a number of people to name one conference to attend - this is the one they would choose. The networking opportunities are far greater than at any other conference.
Usman AhmedEmirates NBD Asset Management
The Bonds, Loans & Sukuk Middle East conference provides the most extensive opportunity to network across our clients and investors at one event and, as it continues to grow, so does the benefit from attending. Cannot praise the organisation and the set-up of the conference more highly either.
David HiggsMizuho
I don't attend many conferences but I make sure Bonds, Loans & Sukuk Middle East is the one event firmly in my diary year after year. It gives me the chance to interact with the buy side, sell side as well as prospects and peers. For that reason, this is the gold standard for conferences in the region.
Usman AhmedFIM Partners
Bonds, Loans & Sukuk Middle East continues to be the marquee event for Banks and Issuers in the region and one we all look forward to each year. The event is getting bigger and better with each year and this wouldn’t be possible without your team’s meticulous planning and organizing in the build-up to and during the event as well.
Chiradeep DebMashreqbank
The Bonds, Loans & Sukuk Middle East conference is a mecca of banking and treasury professionals. The positivity and energy in the conference was beyond my imagination and it can be witnessed through the excitement and aura of participants at the event. Most of the topics address the upcoming problems and panel discussions provide insight from the industry experts on critical issues faced by the industry.
