I work for a bond firm. You'd be very surprised to see the market for Islamic bonds - massive! Apparently there's something in Islam that forbids the concept of interest, so they structure these bonds in such a way that complies with their religious tenets. We don't deal in them, so I couldn't begin to tell you how they work, but the market is very large.
