Abstract

Introduction: The operations of Islamic banks are based on the mudharabah profit-sharing system, which governs both fund collection and distribution. This system often leads to higher operational costs compared to conventional banks. The study aims to analyze the mudharabah profit-sharing ratio by examining the Cost of Funds (COF), Cost of Loanable Funds (COLF), and Overhead Costs (OHC). Research Methods: This study uses secondary data from published financial reports, with 40 samples taken from annual reports for the 2020–2023 period. The data are analyzed using descriptive analysis, classical assumption tests, and multiple linear regression to measure the effect of each variable. Results: The results show that COF has a significant negative effect on mudharabah profit sharing, COLF has no significant effect, while OHC has a significant positive effect. Conclusion: Efficient management of funding and overhead costs is essential to enhance the profitability of mudharabah-based Islamic banks. Meanwhile, the cost of loanable funds has no significant role in determining the profit-sharing ratio.

Abstract

Introduction: Although awareness of financial literacy is increasing, participation in Indonesia’s capital market remains low, with only about 0.4% of the population actively investing. Therefore, this study aims to examine the factors influencing investment interest among students of the Faculty of Islamic Economics and Business (FEBI) at IAIN Ponorogo. Research Methods: A quantitative method was employed using questionnaires distributed to 212 fifth-semester students during the 2018/2019 academic year. Multiple linear regression was applied to examine the effects of investment knowledge and minimum investment policies on investment interest. Results: The findings reveal that investment knowledge has a positive and significant effect on students’ investment interest, while minimum investment policies show no significant effect. However, both variables jointly have a significant influence. Conclusion: The results highlight the need for capital market authorities and educational institutions to enhance financial literacy and encourage active student participation in investment activities.

Abstract

Introduction: Profit-sharing financing is a key feature of Islamic banks and should be maintained. One example is the Micro Express product, designed for MSMEs, especially small traders. However, BPRS faces strong competition from both conventional banks and informal lenders known as Plecit Banks. This study aims to examine the market share and competitors of the Micro Express at BPRS Mitra Mentari and to develop effective strategies to boost its financing. Research Methods: This research is field research using a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis. Results: As a market follower, BPRS can apply an imitator and adopter strategy by adopting competitor tactics—such as the pick-up service commonly used by Plecit Banks—and enhancing them through culturally unique approaches rooted in local wisdom, offering a distinct value proposition. Conclusion: Maintaining compliance with sharia principles remains essential—not only as a core identity of Islamic banks but also as a sustainable competitive advantage in the face of intense competition.

Abstract

Introduction: This study examines recent developments and key challenges in the sukuk markets of Malaysia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), with a focus on legal, regulatory, and post-default frameworks. It analyzes the institutional structures that shape sukuk issuance in both countries.  Research Methods: Using a qualitative approach, the research draws on academic literature, official reports, news articles, and other relevant sources. It also outlines fundamental sukuk theories, instruments, and global market issues.  Results: The findings indicate that both countries have made notable progress in advancing socially responsible sukuk and regulatory initiatives. However, the UAE faces challenges such as the absence of standardized legal frameworks and independent rating agencies. Malaysia, while leading globally in sukuk issuance, continues to encounter difficulties aligning its regulations with international standards. Conclusion: The study recommends greater standardization, increased sukuk issuance, and more transparent post-default mechanisms to support the long-term development of sukuk markets.
