The “One God, Many Paths” panel was featured as part of UKIFC’s 2019 London Summit on Islamic finance, which tackled innterfaith issues in finance, including the Edinburgh Finance Declaration. UKIFC is one of the founding partners of the Edinburgh Finance Declaration.

Taking part were moderator Habib Motani from hosts Clifford Chance with Rev. Fiona Stewart-Darling from the Canary Wharf Multifaith Chaplaincy, Church of Scotland elder and UKIFC board member Graham Burnside, former HSBC executive Dominic Gorton and Martin Palmer from FaithInvest.

The event included contributions from across the faiths on topics such as:

  • The overlap between Islamic values, the values of other faiths, and non-faith values
  • The Edinburgh Finance Declaration
  • The commanalities among the Abrahamic faiths
  • The concept of stewardship, and how this does not always resonate with those outside of the Abrahamic tradition
  • How culture is needed to create lasting change
