Book excerpt: The objective of this study is to analyse financial reporting practices of the listed Islamic and conventional banks in Bangladesh, in terms of their compliance with the measurement, presentation and disclosure requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as well as the assertion of comparability of the reported figures. The study involved content analysis of the audited financial statements with year-ending 31 December 2014 of the 7 Islamic and 23 conventional banks that are listed in Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) and in Chittagong Stock Exchange (CSE). 29 of these banks are private commercial banks (PCBs) and 1 is state-owned commercial bank (SCB). For the purpose of evaluating compliance with IFRS presentation and disclosure requirements, the study selected 38 mandatory requirements of IAS 1. To examine the compliance with IFRS measurement requirements, the depreciation policies of the banks are selected and contrasted with IAS 16 and IAS 38 requirements. The comparability of the reported figures is also assessed based on the depreciation policies and the reported depreciation amounts. The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Bangladesh (ICAB) has adopted these standards as BAS 1, BAS 16 and BAS 38 respectively. Depreciation is selected for the purpose of this study due to its importance in directing financial performance of a reporting entity. Also, the flexibility IFRS allows in selecting a depreciation policy may result in differences in practices among the reporting entities, which may sacrifice comparability of the reported figures. The study finds that the Islamic banks in general comply with IFRS presentation and disclosure requirements more than the conventional banks, and the depreciation policies adopted by the Islamic banks asserts greater comparability as compared to the conventional banks. However, the study also finds that IFRS are not always observed by the Islamic and conventional banks in Bangladesh in presentation and disclosures of the financial statements and in adopting accounting policies. The study further finds that divergence in accounting policies exist that acts as a barrier to the efforts of achieving comparability in financial reporting. The findings of this research will allow the accounting standard setters, external auditors and the regulators in identifying some of the areas of non-compliance and the bottlenecks in achieving comparability of the financial statements.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study is to comparatively analyze the adoption and implementation of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in the banking sector of Bangladesh both traditional and Islamic banking. The study employs a literature-based method which is a kind of qualitative research approach. Using exploratory analysis the study identifies and compares adoption and application scenarios of IFRS in the traditional and Islamic banking sector as well as identifies major benefits and problems in the adoption and application of IFRS in both sectors. This study concludes that the adoption and application scenarios of IFRS in the banking sector are the satisfactory level and adoption of IFRS offered various benefits but a complete implementation of IFRS by Islamic banks has been proven to genuinely violate the shariah principles. Therefore a separate accounting framework for Islamic products and transactions is required. As the existence of the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI) is still relevant and essential for the development of Islamic financial institutions. However continuous dialogue and consultation between the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI) is needed to harmonize and minimize the difference between the two frameworks. This study expected to benefits the accounting standards-setting bodies and the interested parties as input for them to make a decision whether all standards provided by IFRS are applicable for Islamic Financial Institutions(IFIs) or not.

Download or read book Islam and Mammon written by Timur Kuran and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-12-16 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The doctrine of "Islamic economics" entered debates over the social role of Islam in the mid-twentieth century. Since then it has pursued the goal of restructuring economies according to perceived Islamic teachings. Beyond its most visible practical achievement--the establishment of Islamic banks meant to avoid interest--it has promoted Islamic norms of economic behavior and founded redistribution systems modeled after early Islamic fiscal practices. In this bold and timely critique, Timur Kuran argues that the doctrine of Islamic economics is simplistic, incoherent, and largely irrelevant to present economic challenges. Observing that few Muslims take it seriously, he also finds that its practical applications have had no discernible effects on efficiency, growth, or poverty reduction. Why, then, has Islamic economics enjoyed any appeal at all? Kuran's answer is that the real purpose of Islamic economics has not been economic improvement but cultivation of a distinct Islamic identity to resist cultural globalization. The Islamic subeconomies that have sprung up across the Islamic world are commonly viewed as manifestations of Islamic economics. In reality, Kuran demonstrates, they emerged to meet the economic aspirations of socially marginalized groups. The Islamic enterprises that form these subeconomies provide advancement opportunities to the disadvantaged. By enhancing interpersonal trust, they also facilitate intragroup transactions. These findings raise the question of whether there exist links between Islam and economic performance. Exploring these links in relation to the long-unsettled question of why the Islamic world became underdeveloped, Kuran identifies several pertinent social mechanisms, some beneficial to economic development, others harmful.
Download or read book Handbook of Islamic Banking written by Kabir Hassan and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Handbook of Islamic Banking comprises 25 studies by leading international experts on Islamic banking and finance specially commissioned to analyse the various debates and the current state of play in the field. From its origins thirty years ago, Islamic banking has expanded rapidly to become a distinctive and fast growing segment of the international banking and capital markets. Despite this expansion, Islamic banking still remains poorly understood in many parts of the Muslim world and continues to be a mystery in much of the West. This comprehensive Handbook provides a succinct analysis of the workings of Islamic banking and finance, accessible to a wide range of readers. At the same time, it seeks to bring the current research agenda and the main issues on Islamic banking before a wider audience. Islamic banking offers, as an alternative to conventional interest-based financing methods, a wide variety of financial instruments and investment vehicles based on profit-and-loss sharing arrangements. These are all explored in detail along with other subjects such as governance and risk management, securities and investment, structured financing, accounting and regulation, economic development and globalization. M. Kabir Hassan, Mervyn Lewis and the other contributors have created an authoritative and original reference work, which will contribute to a wider understanding of Islamic banking as well as provoking further discussion and research. It will be invaluable to all scholars, researchers and policymakers with an interest in this subject.
Download or read book Risk Analysis for Islamic Banks written by Hennie van Greuning and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2008 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islamic finance is emerging as a rapidly growing part of the financial sector in the Islamic world and is not restricted to Islamic countries, but is spreading wherever there is a sizable Muslim community. According to some estimates, more than 250 financial institutions in over 45 countries practice some form of Islamic finance, and the industry has been growing at a rate of more than 15 percent annually for the past several years. The market's current annual turnover is estimated to be $70 billion, compared with a mere $5 billion in 1985, and is projected to hit the $100 billion mark by the turn of the century. Since the emergence of Islamic banks in the early 1970s, considerable research has been conducted, mainly focusing on the viability, design and operations of a deposit-accepting financial institution, which operates primarily on the basis of profit and loss partnerships rather than interest. This publication provides a comprehensive overview of topics related to the assessment, analysis, and management of various types of risks in the field of Islamic banking. It is an attempt to provide a high-level framework (aimed at non-specialist executives) attuned to the current realities of changing economies and Islamic financial markets. This approach emphasizes the accountability of key players in the corporate governance process in relation to the management of different dimensions of Islamic financial risk.
Download or read book The Effects of the Global Crisis on Islamic and Conventional Banks written by Jemma Dridi and published by . This book was released on 2005-10-31 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the performance of Islamic banks (IBs) and conventional banks (CBs) during the recent global crisis by looking at the impact of the crisis on profitability, credit and asset growth, and external ratings in a group of countries where the two types of banks have significant market share. Our analysis suggests that IBs have been affected differently than CBs. Factors related to IBs‘ business model helped limit the adverse impact on profitability in 2008, while weaknesses in risk management practices in some IBs led to a larger decline in profitability in 2009 compared to CBs. IBs‘ credit and asset growth performed better than did that of CBs in 2008-09, contributing to financial and economic stability. External rating agencies‘ re-assessment of IBs‘ risk was generally more favorable.
