Book Implications of Profit Sharing Investment Accounts on the Capital Structure of Islamic Bank

Download or read book Implications of Profit Sharing Investment Accounts on the Capital Structure of Islamic Bank written by Johaina Khalid and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islamic banks are different from conventional banks both in terms of their assets and liabilities. One of the major difference in conventional and Islamic banks is the presence of profit sharing investment (PSI) accounts, a quasi-equity, and a buff to bear the financial risk of Islamic banks before it hits the depositors. This paper compares the impact of deposits on the market value, earnings per share (EPS) and financial risk of shareholders of Islamic and conventional banks in Pakistan. The empirical evidence suggests that deposits have a negative impact on market value and EPS of conventional banks. While in the case of Islamic banks, we do not find any significant impact of PSI accounts on market value of Islamic banks; however, we do find the evidence of the significant positive relationship of PSI accounts with EPS. Contrary to the general belief, we find evidence that higher growth in PSI accounts leads to elevated financial risk. The higher financial risk can be attributed to the income smoothing practices of Islamic banks where Islamic banks announce the profit rates of PSI accounts similar to deposit rates offered by their conventional counterparts.

Book Islamic Corporate Finance

Download or read book Islamic Corporate Finance written by M. Kabir Hassan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most existing texts covering topics in Islamic finance discuss the potential of Islamic banking; very few talk about other forms of financing and the investment activities of Islamic firms from the standpoint of owners and managers. This book fills this gap by looking at the traditional as well as non-traditional financing and investment activities of shariah-compliant companies. The chapters in this edited text offer a full range of topics on corporate finance for Islamic firms, including global comparisons of shariah screening, dividend policy and capital structure of Islamic firms, details of global Islamic equity markets, trends and performance of sukuk markets, and a brief account of derivative securities that can be used in Islamic finance. This is a useful reference for anyone who wishes to learn more about the performance of shariah-compliant companies vis-à-vis conventional firms. The book includes both technical and non-technical information that would be suitable for classroom teaching as well as a reference for postgraduate research students.

Book An Overview of Islamic Finance

Download or read book An Overview of Islamic Finance written by Mr.Mumtaz Hussain and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islamic finance has started to grow in international finance across the globe, with some concentration in few countries. Nearly 20 percent annual growth of Islamic finance in recent years seems to point to its resilience and broad appeal, partly owing to principles that govern Islamic financial activities, including equity, participation, and ownership. In theory, Islamic finance is resilient to shocks because of its emphasis on risk sharing, limits on excessive risk taking, and strong link to real activities. Empirical evidence on the stability of Islamic banks, however, is so far mixed. While these banks face similar risks as conventional banks do, they are also exposed to idiosyncratic risks, necessitating a tailoring of current risk management practices. The macroeconomic policy implications of the rapid expansion of Islamic finance are far reaching and need careful considerations.

Book Islamic Finance  Risk Sharing and Macroeconomic Stability

Download or read book Islamic Finance Risk Sharing and Macroeconomic Stability written by Muhamed Zulkhibri and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-02-20 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of risk-sharing in financial and social contracts is one of the unique features of Islamic finance. Many theoretical studies generally claim superiority of an Islamic financial system based on pure equity and participatory modes of financing, while empirical studies provide mixed results. Studies and discussions are needed to fully understand how Islamic finance could contribute to the ongoing discussion of financial stability. Against this background, this book addresses various aspects of Islamic finance and the risk-sharing mechanism contributions to the overall macroeconomic and financial stability. Undoubtedly, the findings and recommendation from this book should be of great interest not only to future academic researchers in the field of macroeconomic stability and Islamic finance, but also to policy makers and regulators who are keen on drawing lessons from Islamic finance experiences to prevent similar crisis in the future.

Book Profit Sharing Investment Accounts    Measurement and Control of Displaced Commercial Risk  DCR  in Islamic Finance

Download or read book Profit Sharing Investment Accounts Measurement and Control of Displaced Commercial Risk DCR in Islamic Finance written by V. Sundararajan and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper highlights some of the key issues and gaps in the supervision of Islamic Banks, and in particular, addresses the supervisory implications of the role of investment account management. One of the key issues in Islamic banking is how to measure and manage the sharing of returns and risks between shareholders and investment account holders (IAH), so that such risk sharing can become an effective tool of risk management in Islamic finance. A methodology for estimating such risk sharing is developed so that the extent of risks shifted (“displaced”) from IAH to shareholders, also referred to as “Displaced Commercial Risk” (DCR), can be measured. Drawing on the recent work on linking the DCR with the “Alpha”, which is the share of risk weighted assets funded by IAH that should be included in the denominator of Capital Adequacy formula for Islamic banks( as recommended in the new IFSB Capital Adequacy standard), the paper presents and illustrates an empirical approach for the supervisory assessment of “Alpha”

Book Islamic Banking and Finance in the European Union

Download or read book Islamic Banking and Finance in the European Union written by M. Fahim Khan and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As an introduction to the complex issue of harmonization of legal and regulatory structure of the European financial system and Islamic finance, this is a useful and welcome volume. The ideas, insights and practical issues addressed in the informed papers that compose the book should be valuable for academics and students of finance, and to those who provide legal and financial services. The book will be helpful also to European regulators who have yet to appreciate the importance of Islamic finance and its potential contribution to financial globalization as well as to European economic growth. Abbas Mirakhor, Former Executive Director, International Monetary Fund, US This timely book examines the authorization of Shari ah-compliant intermediaries as either credit institutions or as investment companies in the European Union. The contributing authors explore the key topics of this area through differing yet parallel perspectives for example, comparing economic and legal standpoints, looking at both European and national levels and considering both academic and technical approaches. The book discusses the common origin of Islamic and Western traditions in commercial and banking transactions, reviewing a period in which the Italian merchants and their organizations drove the rebirth of post-medieval society in trade and law. The editors investigate whether the Islamic banking and financial model complies with the European framework, spelling out the different experiences in single Member States (Germany, France, Italy, and the United Kingdom). Notwithstanding the obstacles to being authorized as domestic credit institutions, they conclude that the access of Islamic intermediaries is suitable and may have positive effects on European integration, as well as increasing the competition among the stand-still operators and evoking the ethical dimension of banking and finance. The book also highlights how Islamic banking would make the industry more inclusive. This multidisciplinary book will appeal greatly to economics and legal scholars with an interest in European and international banking and financial law, as well as postgraduate students in international law and banking law. Practitioners and regulators will also find this book an invaluable resource.

Book The Effects of the Global Crisis on Islamic and Conventional Banks

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.

Book Corporate Governance in Islamic Banks

Download or read book Corporate Governance in Islamic Banks written by Karime Mimoun and published by Grin Publishing. This book was released on 2009-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Business economics - Banking, Stock Exchanges, Insurance, Accounting, grade: 2,1, University of the West of England, Bristol, language: English, abstract: Abstract: Islamic banking is a fast growing finance sector with a growth rate of 15% p.a. and assets value over 200 Billion Dollars. Through the renaissance of Islam it is anticipated that in the next 10 years 40-50% of all Muslim savings will be placed in Islamic financial institutions (Zaher and Hassan, 2002). This trend is international recognised and conventional western banks like Citibank, Deutsche Bank and ABN Amro offer already Islamic banking products. Additionally, large international corporations such as GM, IBM and Dewoo use services offered by Islamic financial institutions (Haron and Ahmad, 2000). The in theory praised model of Profit and Loss Sharing faces in reality principal-agency challenges on the asset side of Islamic banks. This paper analyses the complex agency-problem of Islamic banks through their altered capital structure and investment rules whereby the depositors as quasi-shareholder are not matter of corporate governance. The paper examines the consequences and offers a collection of existing alternatives in the literature to handle this agency-problem.

Book Islamic Banking and Finance

Download or read book Islamic Banking and Finance written by Mondher Bellalah and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2013-07-16 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islamic finance is founded on principles that constitute the guidelines governing any Islamic economic or financial dealings. Innovative financial engineering today constitutes one of the most critical needs of Islamic financial institutions. It represents the forces that will drive Islamic finance toward continuous growth and efficiency. The structuring of new financing and Shariah-complaint instruments plays an important role in the enhancement of Islamic financial markets, and Islamic risk management practices, combining basic Shariah-complaint financial instruments within Shariah structures to precise identified needs. The financial engineering process in Islamic finance is a process that is very sensitive and complex. It requires multidisciplinary considerations, involving deep knowledge of finance, economy, Shariah law and commercial law. Divergence of opinions among different Shariah scholars and boards, as well as the absence or lack of effectiveness of a central regulatory body, is perceived as an obstacle to the growth of investment confidence in Islamic finance. Hence, innovation, along with greater uniformity, is essential to make Islamic finance an international financial system and to attract a greater number of customers. This book addresses the main issues of concern within Islamic banking, namely the development of conceptual framework, the viability of interest-free banking, and the assessment of its performance and future. In a world where conventional interest-based finance is the dominant framework, Islamic banking faces many challenges that must be addressed. This book discusses these issues and challenges and will be of great interest to both researchers and practitioners. It analyses the past experiences of Islamic banks worldwide, and provides an objective assessment of their successes and failures.
