Pavilion F, conference hall F1

Broadcast
The practice of conducting economic activities based on the tenets of "partnership finance" has a lengthy history. Several nations, including select EAEU countries, have enshrined "partnership finance" principles and distinguished them from traditional financial products through legislative means. To evaluate the feasibility and requisites for introducing "partnership finance" principles into the legal system of the Russian Federation, a draft federal law has been devised to initiate an experimental legal framework for the operation of partnership finance mechanisms within specific traditionally Islamic regions of the Russian Federation. What measures must be taken to institute and cultivate partnership financing?
