Comparing to conventional bank, Islamic banking industry in Indonesia relatively still in the early development stage. Islamic bank is different with conventional bank, and therefore there is a special regulation for Islamic bank. Research conducted in 22 countries (including Indonesia), shows that Islamic banking and has differences with conventional banking in term of business orientation, efficiency, asset kuality and stability. But other research 13 countries (not including Indonesia), show that Islamic banking’s performance is lower than conventional banking (Ariss, 2010). Islamic banking in Indonesia has a unique characteristic. Most of Islamic banking in Indonesia is converted from conventional bank, owned by conventional bank or originated from a conventional bank. Some resource of Islamic bank comes from conventional banking even some of them still using resource from their conventional bank as their parent. This result raises a question, whether in the context of Islamic banking in Indonesia, its performance is significantly different from conventional banks. To answer the research questions above, we do a t-test on ROA and ROE Islamic banks and conventional banks from 2009-2014. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the financial performances of Islamic banks with conventional banks, except for 2014. In 2014 Islamic bank’s ROE is lower than conventional banks. This research opens the opportunity to study the factors that could cause a difference in the performance of Islamic banks vs conventional banks.

<p><em>The presence of the Islamic Financial Institution Qanun No 11 </em><em>in </em><em>2018 is a special right for Aceh and has brought a breath of fresh air to the development of the Islamic banking industry in Aceh, a number of conventional banks in Aceh are required to convert to Islamic banks, The purpose of this study is to explain the procedure for accelerating the conversion of unconventional banks to Islamic banks in Aceh and to explain the challenges of banking institutions with the obligation to convert financial institutions in Aceh. The obligation to convert a conventional bank into a sharia bank is clearly as stipulated in article 6 points e and d, although the process of converting a conventional bank to a sharia bank is not found directly in the qanun, but every bank that does the conversion must refer to BI regulations namely PBI No. 11 / 15 / PBI-2009, this is as explained in article 12 "before carrying out business activities, LKS must have a business license in accordance with the provisions of the legislation".</em></p><br /><p> </p>

Therefore, Islamic Banks plays an important role in developing the Indonesian economy. The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of internal and external factors that affect the profitability of Islamic Banks in Indonesia. Methodology/Technique – The methodology of this research is multiple regression. The object of this research is the Islamic banking industry in Indonesia.

Efficiency however does not have a significant effect on profitability of Islamic Banks in Indonesia. Novelty – Based on the results of this research, it can be concluded that the Islamic banking industry can use those variables to improve the profitability of Islamic banks in the future. In addition, there are two variables that affect the profitability of Islamic banking industry.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to ascertain whether Islamic bank profitability is driven by same forces as those driving conventional banking in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. Distinguished by its principles in conformity with sharia, Islamic banking is different from conventional banking, which is likely to affect profitability. Design/methodology/approach The paper builds on a dynamic panel data model to identify the banks’ specific determinants and the macroeconomic factors influencing the profitability of a large sample of 51 Islamic banks operating in the MENA region from 1994 to 2012. The system-generalized method of moment estimators are applied. Findings The findings reveal that profitability is positively affected by banks’ cost-effectiveness, asset quality and level of capitalization. The results also indicate that non-financing activities allow Islamic banks to earn higher profits. Islamic banks perform better in environments where the gross domestic product and investment are high. There is evidence of several elements of similarities between determinants of the profitability for Islamic and conventional banks. The inflation rate, however, is negatively associated with Islamic bank profitability. Practical Implications The authors conclude that profitability determinants did not differ significantly between Islamic and conventional banks. Many factors are deemed the same in explaining the profitability of conventional as well as Islamic banks. The findings reported in the current paper might be of interest for policy makers. It is recommended to better implement non-financing activities to improve Islamic bank profitability. Originality/value Unlike the previous empirical research, this empirical investigation assesses the issue whether Islamic banks profitability is influenced by same factors as conventional model. It enriches the literature in this regard by considering the specificities of Islamic banking to identify the determinants of profitability. Moreover, this study considers a large sample (51 Islamic banks) through a different selection of countries/banks than previous studies. In addition, the period of study considers the subprime crisis insofar it ranges from 1994 to 2012. Hence, this broader study allows the authors to draw more consistent conclusions.

<p><em>Islamic banking is based on profit and loss mechanism where the use of interest is prohibited.  Unlike conventional banks, these banks do not charge a specific rate of interest, rather provides financing in exchange for profit sharing.  However, there are studies claiming that, in practice, Islamic banking is same as conventional banking with regard to the use of interest. It is also claimed that, Islamic deposits are not interest-free, but are closely attached to conventional deposits.  On this background, the objective of this study is to examine the relationship between pricing in Islamic banks vis-à-vis conventional banks by taking the case of Bangladesh. We have used monthly data during the period of 2009-2013. The findings of the study showed that, there is no statistically significant difference between the monthly average lending rates of Islamic banks and conventional banks. However, there is significant difference between deposit rates. The existence of causal relationship was inconclusive, and requires further analysis.</em></p>

Purpose – This paper aims to draw on the bank rent approach to evaluate the existing pattern of financing of Islamic banks and to propose a fairly new conceptualization of Islamic bank rent. Design/methodology/approach – The bank rent theory is adopted to generate the theoretical underpinnings of the issue. After that, empirical evidence from the banking sector of Bangladesh is used to support the arguments. Findings – Repeated transactions under murabaha are observed in the Islamic banking sector of Bangladesh. The asset-based financing gives the Bangladeshi Islamic banks relatively higher Islamic bank rent opportunity for protecting their “franchise value” as Shari’ah-compliant lenders, while responding to the periodic volatility in transaction costs of profit-and-loss sharing. Research limitations/implications – The bank rent approach suggests that the murabaha syndrome can be ironically justifiable. On the other hand, the current profit-and-loss sharing risk provides an idea of the difficulty in assuming the participatory financing with higher credit risk in practice. Islamic scholars and the regulatory authority need to design an appropriate financial architecture which can create different levels of rent opportunities for Islamic banks to avail the benefit from the variety of Islamic financing as declared by Islamic Shari’ah. Originality/value – This paper introduces a fairly new concept of “Islamic bank rent” to make sense of the murabaha syndrome. This approach also contributes to clarifying the unique risk and cost to be compensated with the spreads that Islamic banks are expected to earn. To draw empirical evidence, as far as it could be ascertained, the data of both Islamic banks and conventional banks with Islamic banking windows/branches are used for the first time.

Indonesian Islamic banking market share projected by Bank Indonesia is an integral part in developing the industry in the country. By setting a projection which will then be used as a benchmark / target, Islamic banks can make a necessary program to attract new customers which eventually increase its asset. If the increase of the asset is significant,the Islamic bank market share may increase. The problem is that the current projection by Bank Indonesia seems to be off target. It means that the projection is pretty much above the actual value. This paper attempts to utilize two projection methods namely Spline and Auto-ARIMA which we think can provide a better result. This study uses the monthly data covering period since January 2006 until December 2012. The result shows that our projections, especially using Spline method, are closer to the actual value of the Islamic banking industry market share. It means that the gap between the projection and the actual value of market share is lesser than the gap on the Bank Indonesia calculation. Moreover, this study argue that, the projection of the Islamic banking market share made by BI will not be achieved unless with government support. So far, government has not made any policy which deposit some of the national budget in the Islamic bank. This study calculates that if government regularly depositing 1% of total National Government Budget in Islamic banks, the projection of Islamic banking market share made by BI will be acheived. As a conclusion, the role of government is very significant in developing the Islamic banking industry in Indonesia.Keywords: Market share Islamic Bank, Spline, Auto-ArimaJEL Classification: E44, E47

This paper aims at examining the nexus between riba, gharar and income level, and Islamic Banking Products among Zanzibar people. The Islamic bank products such as Murabahah, Musharakah, Mudarabah, Ijarah, Hawalah, Takaful and Sukuk were considered as independent variables for this study. On the other hand, the dependent variables investigated were three (3) namely riba, gharar and income level. A total of 116 respondents consisting of Zanzibar people residing in different districts responded to the survey questionnaire via google form. The study used statistical techniques to analyse the collected data in terms of demographic, descriptive, reliability and validity analysis and presented by charts, tables and curves. The hypothesis test has been conducted using correlation analysis. Statistically, the finding revealed that, the people of Zanzibar were against Riba but in favour of Murabahah, Musharakah, Mudarabah, Ijarah, Hawalah, Takaful and Sukuk with p≤0.01. The result also revealed that the people of Zanzibar were against gharar with p≤0.01. On the other hand, income level showed a significant correlation against Mudarabah, Ijarah, Hawalal, Takaful and Sukuk as p≤0.01. These findings suggest that the products and services of Islamic banks have a significant relationship with Riba, Gharar and level of income for Islamic banks’ shariah priority. It is also shown that riba and gharar were significantly impacted the people of Zanzibar for the influence on the acquisition of Islamic bank facilities which are vital on direct effects that attract customers and investors in which they are customised from conventional banks products. As the awareness level from these Islamic products are high, it is recommended that Islamic banks should focus in designing Islamic banks products (Murabahah, Musharakah, Mudarabah, Ijarah, Hawalah, Takaful and Sukuk) that will comply with Shariah requirement.
