Mamoura Diversified Global Holding (Mubadala) stepped onto the international sukuk stage during the review period with a landmark $1 billion, 10-year sukuk that forwent traditional fixed-asset backing in favour of a bespoke, equity-based wakalah structure.

Investor appetite proved exceptionally strong.
