Many previous studies have focused on the impact of finance on economic growth. However, few studies have examined the impact of Islamic banking on economic growth. To fill this gap in literature, this paper investigates the potential effects of Islamic banking on economic growth. The paper has two main results. The first result is that previous studies show mixed support for the hypothesis that Islamic banking is a main channel of economic growth. The second result is that previous studies on the impact of Islamic banking on growth are single-country studies and their findings are difficult to generalize. In addition, the results of this paper point to several implications for policy. One of its implications for policy is that Islamic banking positively contributes to countrys macroeconomic stability.

This paper is aimed to assess the contribution of Zakat in boosting Islamic banks’ financing and economic growth for the period 2011-2015, in 10 district/city of West Java Province, Indonesia. Through Vector Autoregressive (VAR) panel co-integration analysis, variance decompositions (VD) and impulse response functions (IRF), this study investigates Zakat, Islamic Banking, and economic growth nexus. Findings in this research highlight that Zakat has a significant impact on Islamic banking, so this institution would contribute to economic growth both in the short and the long run, with fluctuation in variance from the first year. The results lend support to the view that Zakat not only leads to social benefits but also has a positive impact on the economy through increasing Islamic banks’ financing. Therefore, this research will serve as a motivation for the industry players and regulators to continuously promote Zakat as a strategic policy. The originality of this research is to assess Zakat-led growth and finance by analyzing the impact of Zakat on the Islamic banking and regional economic outcome. Another novel aspect of this study is in the methodology as it employs VAR panel co-integration analysis, VDs and IRFs on the set of annual data.

Abstract. The article discloses development peculiarities of the global Islamic financial industry and determines its interplay with the economic growth of Muslim countries. The aim of the article is to reveal current trends in key segments of the global Islamic finance market (Islamic banking, capital market and Iinsurance) and analyze the impact of each of them on the economic growth of the countries, which are most developed in the field of Islamic finance. The countries surveyed were selected according to the Islamic Finance Development Indicator (IFDI), which reflects the general state of the Islamic financial industry worldwide and in each country. IFDI is based on five indicators: quantitative development (QD), knowledge, governance, corporate social responsibility (CSR) and awareness. In 2019, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, Indonesia, Malaysia and Saudi Arabia were the most developed countries in terms of Islamic finance. Examining the impact of different types of Islamic financial assets on the GDP of these Muslim countries, we used Eviews10 to conduct a regression analysis, which showed a positive relationship between GDP and only two types of assets, namely bank and Islamic bonds (sukuk). associated with significant volumes of these segments of the global Islamic financial market and the tradition of investing in key sectors of the economy. We discovered the negative relationship between GDP and Islamic insurance (Takaful) in all countries studied, which can be explained by ineffective investment strategies of Islamic insurance companies, which suffer from low profitability and are unable to increase their assets in line with current trends in innovation and development.  We also found the inverse relationship between Islamic funds and GDPs of the UAE, Malaysia and Saudi Arabia, which may be related to the distribution of financial resources from these countries to other parts of the world and investment cycles, including the waiting period before repatriation of profits and interest; the concentration of funds in major markets makes it impossible to scale their activities in the global market. Keywords: Global islamic finance, Islamic banking, Islamic capital market, Sukuk, Islamic funds, Takaful, Economic growth.

Abstract: The role and contribution of Islamic finance on economic growth in Indonesia has increased gradually and steadily. This is because the Islamic economy's universal and comprehensively basic principle is the primary foundation of Islamic banking. This research aimed to analyze the role of Islamic Banking on Indonesia's real sector during 2007.01 – 2016.04. This study used the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) as a tool to analyze secondary data. The result showed that in Indonesia, sharia deposit positively and significantly influenced actual output in the short term. In addition, in the long-term, sharia financing positively and significantly influenced actual output. Moreover, Granger Causality Test proved the occurrence of one-way causality between actual output and inflation. Thus, Islamic banking can encourage actual output in Indonesia. The results of this study become a consideration for stakeholders and policymakers to pay more attention to strategies and policies that support economic growth in Indonesia.Abstrak: Perkembangan keuangan syariah di Indonesia semakin meningkat setiap tahunnya.
