- Sheikh Abdullah Bin Suleiman Almaneea (Chairman) – Saudi Arabia
- Sheikh Dr. Abdullah Almutlaq – Saudi Arabia
- Sheikh Dr. Mohamed Ali Elgari – Saudi Arabia
- Datuk Prof. Dr. Mohamad Akram Laldin (Champion for Sustainability) - Malaysia
- Sheikh Dr. Mohammed Al-Tabtabai – Kuwait
Dr. Fareed Hamed, our Sharia Liaison Director, is a Saudi national who lives and works in Jeddah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Our SSB convenes formally on a bi-annual basis, with further meetings called for individual requirements.
Our SSB has supported the development of ETHOS AFP™ on an ongoing basis, issuing regular validation in support of our business activities, including automated trade and post trade services and partner integrated solutions.
Emphasising our long-held commitment to Sustainable and Responsible Actions (“SRA”), both in our business practice and in our approach to Corporate and Social Responsibility (“CSR”), we were honoured to appoint Datuk Professor Dr. Mohamad Akram Laldin as SRA Champion within our SSB in 2019.
