Dr. Khallaf Abdel Jaber, Professor of Finance at Faculty of Commerce at Cairo University and Member of Shura Council, states that the main reason for issuing the ISO certificate is what the International Standardization Organization claims to be specifications that would help people worldwide choose high-quality commodities and services. This qualification is an incentive to produce industrial commodities of higher quality. In many cases, ISO is meant to protect local industries of international markets. This has urged exportation projects in developing countries to obtain the ISO certificate, in order that advanced industrial markets would accept their products.
