This chapter reviews scriptural evidence in the Islamic sources against greed, waste, usury, hoarding, and profiteering. It also expounds the Shari’ah rules pertaining to ownership, financial transactions, and business relations that seek to keep trading and finance in touch with the real economy and the people’s needs. Then follows an examination of the recurrent financial crises, the currency turmoil, the US subprime mortgage, the Eurozone debt crisis, and extensive fraudulent irregularities by some of the world’s leading banks. The chapter advances an argument that the in-built restraints in Islamic banking and finance can contribute to financial stability and health of the world economy.

The article studies the financial stability of a particular insurance organization. The financial stability of the insurance company is an essential component of its activities and characterizes the ability to pay off its obligations on time and in full. The analysis of financial stability is defined as an independent object of evaluation, which explores the structure of the formation and use of capital. To assess the financial stability of the insurance company, a set of indicators was formed, including the following ratios: level of equity, ratio of equity to liabilities, ratio of insurance premiums and insurance reserves, ratio of working capital and non-current capital, level of permanent capital, ratio of equity and insurance reserves, level of debt load, level of insurance reserves. The insurance public joint-stock company RESO-Garantia was chosen as the object of analysis. The analysis showed that the capital structure in the insurance company under consideration is not optimal. The company has a shortage of insurance reserves, which is offset by equity.

AbstractThis article examines the international determinants of capital structure using a large sample of firms from 37 countries. The reliable determinants for leverage are firm size, tangibility, industry leverage, profits, and inflation. The quality of the countries’ institutions affects leverage and the adjustment speed toward target leverage in significant ways. High-quality institutions lead to faster leverage adjustments, whereas laws and traditions that safeguard debt holders relative to stockholders (e.g., more effective bankruptcy procedures and stronger creditor protection) lead to higher leverage.
