However, related to the implementation of the Microfinance Institution Law, OJK has not been able to carry out its function as a constitutional acter in enforcing Article 39 of the LKM Law regarding the existence of BMTs in the community which should abide and comply with licensing regulations under the OJK</p><p><strong>Keywords:</strong><strong> </strong><strong>Financial Services Authority, Muhtasib Institution, Sharia Financial Industry</strong></p>

In the last four decades, Malaysian jurists and Sharî’ah scholars have immensely contributed to the field of Islamic finance sufficient to attract international recognition and acceptance. This has turned Malaysia to a vibrant global hub for Islamic financial services. In furtherance of this enviable position, a new legal framework was recently introduced which is expected to reemphasize the pragmatic and resilient nature of the Islamic finance industry. This paper therefore provides a judicial perspective on the recent reforms in the legal framework of Islamic finance industry, examines the dynamics of Islamic finance litigation, and highlights the important role of the judiciary and other dispute resolution institutions in shaping the future of the industry. In Malaysia, the nature of the trading concepts, upon which the Islamic finance facilities are based, are the major sources of disputes since the Islamic finance industry operates within a conventional framework and related disputes are litigated in the civil courts. It is therefore argued that the biggest challenge for the courts in the exercise of its judicial function is the application of relevant laws to Islamic finance transactions. The paper concludes that strengthening the legal architecture of the industrywill necessarily lead to the development of competitive products that are not only Sharî’ah-compliant but alsoconventionally viable. This can be achieved through the channelling of Islamic finance disputes to an alternative forum for appropriate dispute resolution. ABSTRAKDalam empat dekad yang lalu, cendekiawan Malaysia dan pakar Syariah telah memberi sumbangan yang besar kepada bidang kewangan Islam yang cukup bagi menarik pengiktirafan dan penerimaan antarabangsa. Ini telah menjadikan Malaysia suatu hab global bertenaga untuk perkhidmatan kewangan Islam. Bagi meneruskan kedudukan yang dicemburui ini, satu rangka kerja undang-undang baru telah diperkenalkan baru-baru ini yang diharap lebih menekankan kepada lumrah pragmatik dan berdaya tahan industri kewangan Islam. Oleh itu, kertas kerja ini memberikan perspektif kehakiman terhadap pembaharuan mutakhir dalam rangka kerja undang undang industri kewangan Islam, mengkaji dinamik litigasi kewangan Islam, dan menjelaskan peranan penting badan kehakiman dan institusi-institusi penyelesaian pertikaian yang lain dalam membentuk masa depan industri ini. Di Malaysia, lumrah konsep perdagangan, yang mana menjadi dasar kemudahan kewangan Islam, adalah punca utama pertikaian sejak industri kewangan Islam beroperasi di dalam rangka kerja konvensional dan pertikaian berkaitan telah dilitigasikan di mahkamah sivil. Maka ia telah dibahaskan bahawa cabaran terbesar bagi mahkamah pada menjalankan fungsi kehakimannya adalah aplikasi undang-undang yang berkaitan dengan urus niaga kewangan Islam. Kertas kerja ini menyimpulkan bahawa pengukuhan rangka kerja undang-undang industri akan membawa kepada pembangunan produk yang berdaya saing yang bukan sahaja patuh Syariah tetapi juga berdaya maju dari sudut konvensionalnya. Ini boleh dicapai melalui penyaluran pertikaian kewangan Islam kepada forum alternatif untuk penyelesaian pertikaian yang sesuai.

AbstractIslamic finance has been growing significantly across the globe. In Southeast Asia, interest in Islamic finance and its growth is significant in Malaysia. Compared with Malaysia, in Indonesia, however, the largest Muslim population country where an Islamic resurgence has been widely taking place, the growth of Islamic banks remains slower and on a smaller scale. Furthermore, recent research shows that Islamic piety does not systematically translate into the use of Islamic banks among middle-class Indonesians. Against these findings, this article highlights a relatively understudied Islamic finance institution, Islamic Savings and Credit Cooperatives, in Indonesia commonly known as Baitul Maal wat Tamwil (BMT). The BMT sector is separate from the banking sector and as such has received little scholarly attention as part of Islamic finance in Indonesia. The number of the BMTs in Indonesia has increased significantly since the 1990s and they are grass-roots Islamic financial institutions offering financial services to relatively small-scale traders in urban areas. Based on data from anthropological research in Central Java, this article argues that Islamic propagation is an important element among the BMT founders and workers. They perceive their economic activities as Islamic propagation by deeds (dakwah bil hal) to achieve social justice.

Each year, the Harvard Islamic Finance Information Program (HIFIP) of the Center for Middle Eastern Studies organizes this forum.

Participants were mainly finance industry representatives from the Islamic Development Bank, the Kuwait Finance House, HSBC Amanah Finance, the Dow Jones Islamic Index, Bank Indonesia, Freddie Mac, and others. In addition, several experts in Islamic economics and finance, such as Monzer Kahf, M. Nejatullah Siddiqi, Nizam Yaquby, and Frank E. Vogel participated. Many other participants sought to educate themselves about the principles of Islamic finance and the availability of lslamically approved financial products. Overall, the forum was more of an opportunity for those interested in Islamic finance to meet each other, network, and present some of their latest lslamically approved financial instruments and contracts. The forum fea­tured a few research papers and many case studies. Most presentations and panel discussions focused on current and past experiences in the Islamic finance industry, challenges facing the development of new financial instru­ments, effective marketing and delivery of products to end-users, and areas where applying jjtihad is most needed and promising. Participants also dis­cussed the need to develop relevant financial institutions to strengthen the stability and perfonnance of Islamic financial service providers ( e.g., man­aging liquidity and risk). Thomas Mullins, HIFIP's executive director, welcomed the guests. He stressed the Islamic finance industry's important role in creating a dialogue between I slam and the West - a role made especially relevant after Septem­ber 11. Forum chairperson Samuel Hayes, Jacob Schiff Professor Emeritus at Harvard Business School, used his opening remarks to commend the industry on its many accomplishments during the past decade and outlined areas for improvement. In his introduction, Saif Shah Mohammed, presi­dent of the Harvard Islamic Society, suggested that the industry should prer vide relevant services to students, such as Shari'ah-compliant educational loans and young professional programs. Ahmad Mohamed Ali, president of the Islamic Development Bank (IDB), delivered the keynote address: "The Emerging Islamic Financial Architecture: The Way Ahead." He discussed the infrastructure required to strengthen the Islamic financial industry, which is in a process of evolution.

Currently, there are ...

Each banking institution has a customer-oriented strategic plan, although the sudden emergence of competition does not allow them to relax. The explosion of new technologies and the rise in consumer demand have been putting pressure on banks since the 2008 recession. Retail banking customers are constantly expecting new, improved, affordable, convenient continuous service from the bank. In an environment of increasingly competitive, innovative financial services, banks need to be able to maintain not only customers but also brand awareness. The emergence of non-traditional financial service providers in the market such as FinTech, NEO Banks, Challenger Banks, BigTech, which reduces the relationship between banks and their customers, completely changes the banking industry. Today we face a new open ecosystem of consumers, traditional banks, FinTech and BigTech companies, regulators, developers, non-banking firms and other players, with customers at the center. Banks will have to significantly change their commercial and operating models to retain customers and remain active players in the market. The presented paper examines the development trends of new players in the financial industry - non-traditional financial service providers and the readiness of the banking industry to respond to these trends. The paper is a study of the impact of digitalization of financial services on the banking sector based on the study and analysis of reports of the various international organizations, local policy documents, reports and regulations of the National Bank, the papers of various researchers and their secondary data. Based on the research, suggestions have been made on how Georgian banks should strategically approach non-traditional providers of financial services to avoid losses, withstand competition and remain active market players.

The outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia is attacking not only public health but also the economy. The presence of Covid-19 has many important impacts on developed countries. There are at least four industries most impacted by this pandemic, including households, MSMEs, companies and the financial industry. However, the halal industry is believed to be more resilient to the Covid-19 pandemic. This durability is because of the principles attributed to the halal sector, namely the importance of fairness, balance and openness. The author’s goal is therefore to carry out more in-depth research on the role of the halal industry in supporting the national economy, which is under pressure because of the COVID-19 pandemic. This type of study is a literature review with a material analysis approach that explores the conditions of the halal industry in Indonesia in depth. The material received is as books, published information, and online news. The findings of this study reveal that there are three halal business sectors that are believed to be more vulnerable to the Covid-19 pandemic in order to facilitate national economic recovery. Halal finance, halal food and halal fashion industries are among them. Halal finance from both the banking sector and the Islamic stock market has proved to be more robust than the mainstream financial sector. Besides guaranteed halal food, its wellbeing is also guaranteed, and halal fashion is now on the rise as Muslim fashion is increasingly innovative and global. We believe the three of them to have experienced vigorous growth, and also to continue to draw customers. And also after the Covid-19 pandemic, these three sectors could survive. Thus the halal industry also contributes to Indonesian economy.

Purpose With the increasing instances of malfeasance and frauds coming to light in the financial services industry, trust has become a key concern for customers. Fortunately, in the case of Islamic Finance, trust is a central tenet, and its importance can be seen through the emphasis of Amanah or trustworthiness that should be present in every financial transaction. However, it has been argued that the principle of trust has not been truly realized in Islamic Finance, or that there are still issues of distrust regarding anything which is obtrusively branded as “Islamic”. In this paper, the author will analyze the reasons for gaps between the expectations and reality of the finance industry today by looking at the main factors contributing to distrust among the different stakeholders and the perceived impact of the distrust on the industry and the general public. It then focuses on the past and ongoing efforts by academia to bridge these gaps between the different stake holder groups with the help of illustrative case studies as well as recommends future steps to be taken to ensure a stronger foundation of trust within the Islamic Finance community.
