Abstract

Fractional reserve banking is a system in which banks extend loans by creating credit/deposit money, and which can be considered the basis of modern financial architecture. Nevertheless, it has been criticised because of its inherently weak and fragile structure in terms of financial and economic stability. As a theoretical solution, full reserve banking has been supported in academic circles, with many technical variations. However, Islamic economics can help to maintain financial and economic stability with its original institution of waqf. Besides performing social functions, waqf also undertakes financial intermediary functions and preserved financial stability in the period of the Ottoman Empire. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of fractional reserve banking on economic stability and to make a comparison with full reserve banking to observe its potential as an alternative solution. The study also examines the efficiency of the Islamic social and economic institution of waqf in maintaining economic stability in both fractional and full reserve systems. The results demonstrate that full reserve banking is a promising approach to maintaining economic stability and that waqf enhances economic stability in both banking systems.

Abstract

This paper aims to ascertain the benefits that Islamic and conventional banks in Bangladesh can reap by implementing green banking, and also the drivers that motivate banks to behave environmentally. The Green Compliance Index (GCI) was introduced here to measure banks’ environmental behaviour. It was prepared based on central bank guidelines. In this study, with the participation of all 40 private commercial banks (PCBs), 32 conventional banks and 8 Islami Shariah-based PCBs, firm specific variables were collected through content analysis of the GCI. Structural equation modelling-partial least squares (SEM-PLS), together with the bootstrapping method, were used to evaluate the research data. These were collected and sorted from the FY annual report of 2018. For further support, a generalized linear model (GLM) was used to assess the outcomes. The results show that the effects of green compliance on possible benefits are significantly higher for Islamic banks. In contrast, these banks comply less with the green banking codes than conventional banks do in Bangladesh. Company size and the independence of bank directors appear to have a significant influence on compliance with the green banking codes, while governance does not show such an association for either group of banks. As Islamic banks have a greater scope to attain benefits, policymakers should introduce more interactive green banking products and loan schemes for prospective consumers, especially in industrial sectors where there is a greater possibility of being sustainable and environmentally friendly. Based on the findings, policy recommendations are made for practitioners, regulators and future researchers.

Abstract

Recent zakat distribution by the National Board of Zakat, Republic of Indonesia (BAZNAS), such as the construction of private lavatories for underprivileged households, have contributed to the idea that zakat promotes the sustainability of clean water and sanitation (SDG 6). However, this notion demands detailed academic explanation to better understand it systematically. This paper thus aims to explore the degree to which the toilet construction project has benefitted its recipients. This case study of BAZNAS’s project in Kendel, Boyolali, Indonesia, employs a qualitative approach based on participatory observation and semi-structured interviews. The findings explain the perspectives of local community after receiving the assistance, including the identification of reduction in numbers of local people affected by diarrhoea. This information may validate the relationships between health, water and sanitation. Furthermore, the findings capture the involvement of local government in the project execution. Thus, social and practical implications are revealed by this study. This study pioneers the establishment of scholarly-based evidence about the programme of individual toilet construction executed by BAZNAS, and about the perspectives of its recipients in the wake of receiving the aid.

Abstract

This study aims to measure and compare the intertemporal efficiency of Islamic banks in Indonesia and Malaysia using data envelopment analysis (DEA) together with window (intertemporal) analysis for the period 2012–2018 and applying an intermediation approach. Window analysis is used to indicate the stability of efficiency over the study period. The findings show that the intertemporal technical efficiency (TE) of Islamic banks in Indonesia was 77.4% with stability score of 0.034, which was significantly more efficient and more stable than Malaysian banks at 75.1% with stability score of 0.169. Moreover, the the intertemporal pure technical efficiency (PTE) of Islamic banks in Indonesia was 91.7% with stability score 0.020, which was also significantly more efficient and more stable than Malaysian banks at 88.0% PTE and stability score of 0.161. In contrast, the intertemporal scale efficiency (SE) of Islamic banks in Indonesia was 84.5%, slightly lower than that of Malaysian banks at 85.3% but not significantly different. PTE improvement has contributed to TE improvement, while SE has not reached an optimal level. Comparison to previous results also showed that since the global financial crisis the PTEs of Islamic banks in Indonesia and Malaysia have improved while SEs have worsened. Therefore, efforts to improve SE by expanding the size of Islamic banks to reach optimum economies of scale are urgently needed.

Abstract

Digital financial inclusion (DFI) is a prominent issue in the digital era, since it focuses on the use of technology to serve unbanked people at low cost. The adoption of mobile money platforms that allow users to make efficient peer-to-peer and real-time transactions is one aspect of the DFI agenda. This study aims to investigate the determinants of mobile money usage using data derived from the 2017 Global Financial Inclusion survey conducted by the World Bank and Gallup and applying probit regression and the Heckman selection model to check robustness. Even though access to a financial institution is relatively low, the percentage of mobile money usage in Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) countries is slightly higher than in non-OIC countries and worldwide. The rate of adoption of mobile money is higher for individuals making online transactions, with more educated and more prosperous males tending to be more included in the use of digital financial services. The U-shape hypothesis for the relationship between age and the use of mobile money is not supported. Our research contributes to the theoretical development of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2 in illustrating the use of mobile technology. The empirical results are recommended for use by practitioners, regulators and policymakers in creating and fostering a sound ecosystem for digital finance development.

Abstract

Financing-to-value (FTV) policy is a macroprudential policy currently used by the central banks to maintain the stability of financial systems and prevent systemic risks. In Indonesia this is particularly the case in relation to financing of the property sector by Islamic financial institutions. This paper aims to analyse the impact of FTV policy on the residential property price index (RPPI) in Indonesia using a panel data analysis method. Indonesia is chosen in this study as it is one of the countries implementing FTV policy in its Islamic banking system. There are three important findings to be drawn from the study. First, FTV policy ratios significantly affect RPPI.

Abstract

Information technology is fundamentally changing the world today. The power of technology applicable fastly in Islamic financial technology (i-Fintech), as it expands access to mobile financial services. This is evidenced by the increasing number of customers who interact using technology, especially micro-entrepreneurs, who adopt the tools into their business models to tap into this opportunity to enhance their income. Therefore, it is imperative to examine the impact of i-fintech use in stabilising micro-entrepreneurs’ income. A quantitative technique was employed through the use of 120 questionnaires distributed to micro-entrepreneurs who had adopted i-fintech into their business. Using Amos and SEM models, the study indicates that crowdfunding, mobile money and peer-to-peer lending play a significant role in ensuring income sustainability for micro-entrepreneurs. The study also discusses both the theoretical and managerial implications in comprehending the determinants of sustainable income growth in Malaysia. The findings should help practitioners, researchers and regulators to have better understanding of the dynamics between the potential of i-fintech and sustainable income.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate whether the Islamic equity style index contains economic information which is useful for investors and financial practitioners. The study fills the gap in the previous literature by investigating the relationship between Islamic equity style indices and macroeconomic variables. Using a Vector Autoregressive (VAR) model with monthly data from June 2006 to May 2017, our results show that first, there is unidirectional flow of information from Large Growth (LG) to the Leading Economic Indicator (LEI); second, Large Growth (LG) Granger-causes the Kuala Lumpur Composite Index (KLCI); third, Large Value (LV) also Granger-causes KLCI. A robustness check with an Augmented VAR model obtained similar results to the short-run model. Our results imply that equity style indices have prior information which is faster than LEI and KLCI. This knowledge is certainly useful for fund managers when designing Shariah-compliant portfolio investments. For policymakers, Islamic equity style indices are useful for predicting the direction of other macroeconomic variables such as business cycles, and hence help to predict the future direction and turning points in the economy.

Abstract

Microfinance institutions (MFIs) play pivotal roles to providing financing and services to micro and small enterprises (MSEs) in Indonesia. Islamic MFIs, which follow Shariah principles in their operations, aim not only to provide financing, but also to improve the socioeconomic conditions of poor people. There is heightened interest in the factors influencing the development of MFIs, such as relationship lending. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of such lending and the uniqueness of the implementation of social purpose in Islamic MFIs. The paper adopts a quantitative methodology, using cross-sectional survey data from 1,001 microloan borrowers from five MFIs, three of which are Islamic MFIs which provided financing in 13 regions in Indonesia in 2018. The results show that Islamic MFIs do not differ in the implementation of relationship lending. Furthermore, there is a likelihood that they are able to be more focused on profit-oriented transactions ensuring sustainability, due to their unique characteristics, as they have Baitul Maal with the social instruments of zakat, infaq and sadaqa to provide social-oriented transactions to improve outreach to the poor. The study enhances our understanding and adds knowledge to the existing literature on Islamic MFIs, especially in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study investigates the role of workers’ remittances in promoting economic growth in Pakistan, using data from 1976-2017. Remittances are an important source of Sharia-compliant (mostly) FX inflows, which may contribute to the economic development of many Islamic and non-Islamic economies. Nonetheless, they are more relevant to Islamic economies, as they could potentially reduce the requirements of interest-based FX financing from donor agencies and/or from global capital markets. The impact of workers’ remittances on the economic growth of Islamic developing economies remains a little explored area. Our research, which employs a case study of Pakistan, is first in this direction. We used the GMM estimation procedure to obtain efficient estimates in the presence of endogeneity and simultaneity bias. Our estimates show that an increase in remittance inflows positively affects the economic growth of Pakistan. The increase in per capita GDP could be primarily due to an increase in the consumption of low-income recipients. It is likely that this consumption demand promotes investment activity; however, the study could not establish the impact of remittances on such activity.
