I stumbled across this the other day whilst looking for another Lloyds product.

Was talking with one of my friends from the City and he says there is a huge market for financial products that sit comfortably with Shariah law.

I an grateful to have this brought to my attention.
I have considerable funds both deposited and invested with Lloyds. If the original post proves to be true, I'll be transferring the lot and making my reasons clear in a letter to Senor Osorio.

You don't need to be muslim to open an account. Allah welcome to join.
One could hardly make that welcome pack up, especially the page entitled Are you ready for your next trip abroad! It appears to be genuine but, as I mentioned, a little more research would probably be wise.
what kind of burka'll be turning down interest accrued?
