50 percent of the total global sukuk issuance worldwide in 2021 was sovereign sukuk, meaning it was issued and backed by governments. The country responsible for the highest share of sukuk issued in 2022 was Saudi Arabia, with almost 31.2 percent. Corporate issuances accounted for around 42 percent, with the remainder being issued by multilateral organizations.
Distribution of total sukuk issuance worldwide in 2022, by issuer type
A "sukuk" is a financial certificate similar to a bond, but structured so as to comply with Islamic religious law (Sharia). The core difference is that a sukuk involves direct ownership in the asset/s the issuer purchases with the funds raised, whereas bonds are indirect debt obligations. Income received by the sukuk holder is therefore income generated by the underlying asset, whereas income from bonds is structured as interest payments.
