For the first time in 30 years, an economic crisis has struck simultaneously on both sides of the Atlantic. The simultaneous nature of the present crisis has also started to resonate in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development countries. The first two sectors to have suffered a surge in insolvencies in may countries were real estate and finance. White globalization directly explains the spread of the crisis in the financial sector, its spread through real estate sectors is harder to explain, if not by some particular resonance of the crisis. After a final surge of growth in 2007, the British economy failed to resist the collapse of the real estate bubble and the worsening crisis in finance and banking, two major sectors of the economy and major employers.

While the initial wave of modern Islamic banking focused on the retail side of the business, investment banks are the new trailblazers. US and European banks are bidding for Shariah-compliant tranches of major financings to repackage as investment funds. Meanwhile, the oil-rich countries of the Middle East offer a pool of liquidity that is a big draw for financiers and companies seeking to raise capital. Dubai Ports World's takeover of UK-based port operator P&O last year was financed in part with Islamic "bonds," or sukuk, that were oversubscribed more than four times, receiving a total of $11.4 billion in bids.
