Information Services is a prominent advisory and research firm specializing in technology insights and digital transformation solutions. Primarily, it serves as a guiding partner for organizations seeking to leverage innovation and improve performance through effective technology strategies. Known for its in-depth research, Information Services Group offers services that include benchmarking, market intelligence, and managed services, catering to a diverse clientele ranging from small enterprises to large multinational corporations. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Information Services stock Halal?
Is Information Services Shariah compliant?
The Shariah case on a technology company like Information Services is rarely about the product. What AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 examines is the money around the product: cash parked in instruments that earn Riba, borrowing measured against a market capitalisation that moves daily, and any incidental income from sources Islam prohibits, which must stay below 5% of revenue.
Does Information Services pass the business activity test?
Yes. In the September 2026 screening Information Services holds an overall PASS, which a stock only earns when its core business clears the activity screen. The watch item for technology names is incidental: cash returns and platform content can carry impermissible elements, which AAOIFI tolerates only below the thresholds.
Is Information Services' income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Information Services' income from non-permissible sources stays below 5% of revenue in the September 2026 screening, and the small impure portion is handled through purification: the factor of 99.96% tells holders of III what share of each dividend to keep and what remainder to donate to charity.
Does Information Services meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?
Yes. Both caps hold this month: interest bearing investments and interest bearing debt each stay below 30% of market capitalisation. Because the caps move with the share price, our Shariah Supervisory Board has III re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
