The International Islamic Trade Finance Corp., an affiliate of the Islamic Development Bank Group, has topped the global rankings as the best Bookrunner and Mandated Lead Arranger in the 2025 Islamic syndicated finance deal rankings released by Bloomberg and the London Stock Exchange Group Data and Analytics, securing its fifth consecutive top position.
The Bloomberg ranking indicates the capacity of the corporation to design and facilitate the syndicated trade finance deals and its success in attracting a wide and diverse investor base around the world.
However, the ranking of LSEG Data and Analytics proves the credibility and established position of the entity in the global financial markets.
This dual identity reflects the key position the ITFC takes in mobilising investments by the world’s private and public institutions to fund member countries of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and also offers Islamic trade finance solutions that align with the needs of its clients and are in line with its development agenda.
At the event, CEO of ITFC Adeeb Al-Aama said, “The institution’s leading position in the global rankings of Islamic crowdfunding deals in Bloomberg’s tables and the LSEG Data & Analytics for 2025 reflects the strength and credibility of the crowdfunding platform through which the institution operates, its consistent performance, and its broad global presence. This achievement also confirms the international financial community’s confidence in the institution’s ability to innovate and lead high-quality Islamic finance deals.”
Notably, Islamic crowdfunding deals ranking issued by Bloomberg and the LSEG Data and Analytics is based on the complete market transaction information and is regarded as the main reference of financial institutions globally via the Bloomberg and LSEG Data and Analytics platform and system.
