Since last week’s issue where we mentioned an increasing likelihood that the European Central Bank would add more stimulus in December, the US Federal Reserve has expressed continued confidence in the US economy’s growth and a reduction in risk related to global markets (read: China). Both factors the Fed is looking at point to higher chance (market based measures have risen to show a 50% probability) that it will raise the US Fed Funds Rate target in December althoughincreased ECB quantitative easing, the effect of which is discussed below, could increase the risk of both occurring simultaneously. Bank of Khartoum microfinance unit leverages zakat in Islamic microfinance The following is an exclusive interview with Fadi Salim Al Faqih Chief Executive Officer Bank of Khartoum about the bank’s IRADA Islamic microfinance program. Fadi joined BOK in 2006 as Chief Operating Officer and in 2008 was appointed as CEO spearheading BOK’s business development, restructuring and transformation to become the leading Islamic financial services group in the Sudan.

A rise in interest rates by the US Federal Reserve would have a two-pronged impact on oil exporters within the MENAP region. The forecasted growth in the MENAP region for 2015 is expected to be 2.5 percent, down from a growth of 2.7 percent last year and down by 0.5 percentage points compared with the IMF’s last predications stated in May 2015. The major impact of the oil price decline on oil exporting governments has been on their fiscal deficits. The IMF has predicted the fiscal deficits to swell up to 13 percent of GDP in the GCC and 12 percent of the GDP in non-GCC oil exporters in 2015. Despite the drop in energy prices which would, all else equal, lower the import bill (and the fiscal impact of the subsidies provided for energy), the fiscal deficits for the oil importing countries are expected to only narrow slightly to 7.3 percent of the GDP from a peak of 9.5% of GDP in 2013. This shows the how the impact of non-oil factors is affecting the region – it’s not just oil.
