DUBAI, Aug 24 (Reuters) - Sharjah Islamic Bank will begin investor meetings on Aug. 29 for a potential benchmark U.S. dollar-denominated sukuk issue, the lender said on Wednesday.

The meetings will be held in Asia and Europe, the bank said in a bourse statement, adding that the issue would be subject to market conditions. Benchmark usually means at least $500 million in size.

Bank ABC, Dubai Islamic Bank, Emirates NBD Capital, HSBC, KFH Capital, Maybank, Noor Bank, QNB Capital and Standard Chartered will arrange the meetings.
