Big Four giant PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) has appointed a new Islamic finance leader, it has been reported.
Mohammad Khan takes on the role at the professional services firm, which recently vowed to increase its accountancy recruitment efforts.
He takes over from Mohammed Amin, who has now retired from his role as a partner at the firm.
Mr Khan will be responsible for coordinating PwC's Islamic finance practice in the UK and collaborating with the global team.
Chris Jones, UK financial services leader at PwC, commented: "Mohammad's extensive experience of advising clients on Islamic finance matters will allow him to bring the benefits directly to our UK financial services clients."
Mr Khan said he was excited to be able to help the firm's clients find the right solutions for their businesses in an "important and growing area".
Under Shariah law, an over-reliance upon debt is prohibited in Islamic financial transactions.
