  • Islamic finance in multipolar world

    • Authors: Mirakhor, Abbas (2011-10-20)

  • Continuation of a debt-based financing regime will not necessarily allow the benefits of emerging multipolarity to accrue to the world economy. The new system can be more effective with a new regime of financing. Indications are that almost all emerging countries in Asia are actively considering risk sharing via Islamic finance as a possible alternative.

  • Islamic finance insolvencies under secular bankruptcy laws: a case study of Arcapita Bank under US Chapter 11

    • Authors: Zada, Najeeb; Lahsasna, Ahcene; Mahomed, Ziyaad; Saleem, Muhammad Yusuf (2017)

  • Like many other financial institutions, Bahrain-based Arcapita Bank operating in the United States was hit hard by the Eurozne crisis that followed the global financial crisis. Unable to restructure its $1.1 billion debt obligations due in March 2013, the bank decided to file for Chapter 11 protection in the US Bankruptcy Court. This case study introduces Arcapita and its operations, explains the US Chapter 11 and its important aspects like debtor in possession (DIP) financing, highlights the most significant episodes of the Arcapita case, and concludes with important lessons embedded in the proceedings.

  • Islamic norms, the excel formula and home financing models

    • Authors: Hasan, Zubair (2013)

  • This paper adds to the series of writings on Islamic home financing presented and published by the author since February 2010. It spells out certain norms Islamic banks must observe in home financing and demonstrates that the conventional model based on an Excel formula does not meet the stated norms. It may well be emphasized that in Islam the question of observing these norms arises before, and not after, the selection of the formula; additional juristic requirements may only follow subsequently. Is it not then strange many Islamic banks are using the formula to determine the periodic instalment payments in their home financing programs? The paper finds, for example, the popular Mus...

  • Issues in Islamic banking and finance: Islamic banks, Shari’ah-compliant investment and sukuk

    • Authors: Ibrahim, Mansor H. (2015)

  • This introductory article of the special issue “Islamic Banking and Finance II” highlights various studies on fast-growing Islamic finance industry. It focuses specifically on Islamic banking and Islamic capital market research. To date, scholarly research on Islamic finance is mainly confined to empirical verification of its performance on the argument that the Islamic finance is distinct from conventional finance. While more works need to be done to soundly and concretely justify the viability of Islamic finance, future works should aim at placing the Islamic foundations of the industry in proper theoretical settings beyond the statement that it is different. In addition, theoretica...

  • Issues of form and substance in Islamic banking and financial transactions

    • Authors: Saleem, Muhammad Yusuf (2013)

  • There is growing criticism levelled against Islamic banking and financial products where industry critics argue that Islamic banks' deposit and finance products are the eaxt replicas of their conventional counterparts in substance. The difference, they contend, is only in the "form" where some English terms are replaced by Arabic ones. They contend that the gift (hibah) given by Islamic banks to their wadi'ah account holders and profit share given to the mudharabah investment account holders resemble interest which conventional banks give to their savings account holders.

  • Iwad as a requirement of lawful sale: a critical analysis

    • Authors: Rosly, Saiful Azhar (2001)

  • This paper will argue that replacing riba' with al-bay' does not mean that the latter can imply any form of sale (al-bay') to justify Islamic legitimacy. Apart from the prohibition of uncertainties (gharar) in sale, the requirement of an equivalent countervalue (ciwa') must also be met. Risk (ghurm) and liability (iman) after sale and value-addition or effort (ikhtiyar) are the principal components of ciwa'. As such, any increase from sale must contain ciwa', otherwise riba' is implicated. In classical Islamic commercial contracts such as ijarah, salam and mudarabah, ciwa' is evident. However, the contracts of credit of al-murabahah or al-bay bithaman ajil are widely used by Islamic b...

  • Laws pertinent to corporate governance of Islamic banks in Malaysia

    • Authors: Muneeza, Aishath (2012)

  • Malaysia is the cranium of Islamic banking and the most sophisticated laws on the matter could be found in Malaysia. Corporate governance legal infrastructure of Islamic banks is an area that is not explored much. Whenever a person talks about the corporate governance of Islamic banks, people perceive it as Shariah governance or the regulation of the Shariah Advisory Boards established in the Islamic banks. It has been misconceived that Islamic banks only apply Shariah or Islamic law which is not codified as legislations but based on what the Shariah scholars who sit in Shariah Advisory Boards derive. This may be the reason as to why Islamic banks are often considered to be prone to t...
