The Amanie Shariah Screening system app, the result of a
fast growing demand for Shariahcompliant investment, will be featured on
Bloomberg terminals soon, the company behind the system said.
The system is currently available as an app on mobile
platforms thanks to tie-ups with Microsoft and Bloomberg, Amanie Nexus Sdn Bhd
CEO Razi Pahlavi said.
Razi Pahlavi said the company is finalising talks with
Bloomberg, particularly on the technology handshake that would allow the
screening methodology to work on the Bloomberg platform. “Amanie is working
closely with Bloomberg to have the Shariah screening available in the Bloomberg
platform.” Razi told The Malaysian Reserve.
As the trend of mobile computing is on the rise, Amanie
Shariah Screening has also been made available as an app on mobile platforms.
Razi said a partnership with Nokia was struck in 2013 to
pave the way for the screening system to be present on 300,000 Bloomberg
screens worldwide, and on Nokia Windows Phone 8.
He said the tie-up with Microsoft, a done deal, means the
app is now available on Nokia Windows Phone 8 and the company is developing a
version for Windows RT.
“Works are also underway to develop a version of the app for
Windows RT that is intended to run on Nokia Windows Tablets.” Razi said.
The screening system will also be available on Android
version, as it is in a closed Beta phase on the Google Play store, where it is
undergoing testing for another week before its official release later in
February this year.
Amanie, the company behind the development, said the
screening apps on these platforms will reap positive outcome for the company
and for the investors on the lookout for Shariah-compliant stocks.
“With this app, almost everyone can download and check the
Shariah status of over 50,000 stocks listed on the major stock markets
worldwide, anytime, anywhere before they make any investments,” Razi said.
Razi said the uniqueness of Armenia Shariah Screening is
about its “ability to adapt to various methodologies and parameters that are
commonly used in the process of Shariah stock screening.”
He said the Amanie Shariah Screening offers a future-proof
stock screening system, as it can easily cater to any adjustments to the
aforementioned parameters and methodologies.
It is offered as a subscription
package at a reasonable fee, which is already gaining in momentum with
investors subscribing to the system through the company’s website and the newly
launched mobile app.
