This article aims to provide an overview of the development of research on the measurement of Islamic banking performance over the past 20 years from 89 selected papers with Scopus-indexed journals ranked Q4 to Q1 or accredited with Sinta 2 to Sinta 1. This study used a qual-quantitative meta-analysis approach using the Mendeley citation application. The distribution of the topic and the depth of research in paper samples based on keywords in publications were analyzed using the VOSviewer application. The results of the analysis showed that the research trend of Islamic banking performance in reputable journals is increasing in recent years. Most of the studies performed in the last two decades have focused on the practice and corporate governance of Islamic banks and comparisons between Islamic and conventional banks based on financial performance ratios and aspect of maqasid al-Shariah; Only a few studies that discuss efficiency, social performance on Islamic banks, regulation, intellectual capital and stability of the financial performance of Islamic banks were found. The further discussion is an empirical exposure without theoretical exploration or analysis which is supposed to become the direction of banking research in the future.  JEL Classification Codes: G21, L25, P17, P47.

Purpose Intellectual capital (IC) is considered as a lifeblood of the high-tech and knowledge-based sectors. Therefore, there is a great need to highlight the importance of IC in the banking sector. Since the banking sector in the gulf countries is mainly based on Islamic and conventional banking, the purpose of this paper is to provide a comparative empirical analysis between IC efficiency in Islamic and conventional banks, and its impacts on a bank’s operational, financial and market performance. Design/methodology/approach This study examined 59 banks for five years to end up with 295 observations. The independent variable is the modified value added IC components; the dependent variables are performance indicators (return on assets, return on equity and Tobin’s Q). Two control variables are utilized in this study: bank-specific and macroeconomic. Findings The findings deduced from the empirical results demonstrate that there is a positive relationship between IC efficiency and financial performance (ROE) and market performance (TQ) in Islamic banks. However, in conventional banks, there is a positive relationship between IC and operational performance (ROE) and financial performance (ROE). Originality/value The results of this study can be used to present a successful model for the Islamic and conventional banks to concentrate more on the role of IC in enhancing the bank’s performance. In addition, the results of this study may provide a wake-up call for Islamic banks to examine the reasons for the imperfect relationship between the IC and asset efficiency (ROA), as well as for conventional banks to examine the reasons for an imperfect relationship between the IC and market value (TQ).

Purpose The purpose of this study is to empirically investigate the impact of intellectual capital (IC) on the financial performance of Islamic banks operating in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. Design/methodology/approach The study measures IC by the value added intellectual coefficient model. A regression analysis was used to assess the impact of IC on financial performance. The research sample consisted of Islamic banks operating in the GCC countries during the years 2011, 2012 and 2013. Data originated from the annual reports of Islamic banks. Findings The results support the thesis that IC has a positive impact on the financial performance of Islamic banks. Even though the average IC is lower than that reported in other studies, the positive effect on financial performance is obvious. The findings also show that human capital (HC) is higher than capital employed (CE) and structural capital (SC). The study reveals that SC has an insignificant impact on the financial performance of the Islamic banks compared to CE and HC. Practical implications The findings provide empirical evidence that IC affects the Islamic banks’ financial performance. It helps Islamic banks in the GCC countries to understand how to use their IC efficiently, especially SC as it is yet to be used efficiently. Also, the findings benefit the relevant authorities (e.g. legislators and central banks) who could use them to emphasise strategic policy reforms whenever required. Originality/value The current research adds to the empirical studies in the GCC countries as it views the region as a collective as opposed to individual countries. It also extends the IC and performance measurement literature of Islamic banks in the GCC countries. Moreover, the current study enriches the limited literature on IC in the context of Islamic banking.

Purpose Intellectual capital (IC) plays a pivotal role in the high-tech and knowledge-based economic sectors. With the emergence of FinTech, which, with respect to the banking sector, is merging high-tech with the k-economy, there is an emerging need to highlight the importance and understand the dynamics of bank IC. With respect to Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) economies, where FinTech has become de rigueur, banking is bifurcated into Islamic and banking sectors. Through comparative empirical analysis, the purpose of this paper is to examine IC efficiency in Islamic and conventional banks with a view to elucidating the impact of IC, in aggregate and decomposed into its components, on an operational, financial and market performance of Islamic banks juxtaposed with conventional banks. Design/methodology/approach Using data collected from 59 banks for five years (2012-2016) involving 295 observations, an independent variable derived from the modified value added IC (MVAIC) components are regressed against dependent bank performance indicator variables [Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE) and Tobin’s Q (TQ)]. Two types of control variables complete the regression analysis in this study: bank-specific and macroeconomic. Findings The findings elicited from the empirical results demonstrate that there is positive relationship between IC efficiency and financial performance (ROE) and market performance (TQ) in Islamic banks. In conventional banks, however, there is a positive relationship between IC and operational performance (ROE) and financial performance (ROE). Originality/value The model in this paper presents a valuable analytical framework for exploring IC efficiency as a driver of performance in dual-sector banking economies characterized by co-existence of Islamic and conventional financial institutions. In addition, this paper highlights bank management lacunae manifesting in terms of the weak nexus between: IC and asset efficiency (ROA) in Islamic banks and IC and market value (TQ) in conventional banks.

The increasing trend in the halal industry is one of the growth factors of sharia banking, but the increase in sharia banking growth is also accompanied by an increase in financing issued by sharia banks that can affect the financial performance of sharia banks. The high risk of financing and the weak fulfillment of the quality of Islamic bank human resources resulted in the performance of Islamic banks always below conventional banks. This study aims to determine the effect of intellectual capital, non-performance financing, Islamic social reporting and Islamic performance index on the financial performance of Islamic banking. The data was taken purposively from Islamic banking companies registered with the Financial Services Authority (OJK) for the 2014-2018 period. Multiple linear regression analysis has been used to analyze the data in this study. The results showed that Non-Permofance Financing (NPF) had a negative effect on the financial performance of Islamic Banks. Whereas Intellectual Capital as measured by Value Added Intellectual Coefficient (VAIC), Islamic Social Reporting, and Islamicity Performance Index has no effect on Islamic bank finance. .

This study compares the performance of Islamic and conventional banking in Lebanon in terms of Return on Assets and Return on Equity over the period 2012-2016. Moreover, it examines whether the internal characteristics of the bank may explain the difference in profitability between two types of banking transactions. In addition, the results of the study are analyzed using a regression analysis applied to a sample of both Islamic and conventional banks to investigate the effects of these variables on bank performance. Furthermore, results show that Islamic banks in Lebanon have better asset adequacy compared to conventional banks. However, conventional banks are better in liquidity and are on an average more profitable than Islamic ones. It is worthy to indicate that the Islamic banking industry in Lebanon is still in its infancy and only very few of the banks were active in this sector.

The study aims to examine the influence of intellectual capital to social performance of Islamic banks. The study assumes there is an intervening role of financial performance on the relation between intellectual capital and social performance of Islamic banks. The VAIC (valued added intellectual capital) is used to measure the intellectual capital. While social capital of Islamic banks comprises four main aspects which are contribution economic development, society, stakeholders, and human development & research. The financial performance is represented by ROA and ROE. The study finds that intellectual capital of Islamic banks has an increasing performance during the period of the study where human capital is the main backbone. Otherwise, social performances of Islamic banks are relatively fluctuated and tend to remain stable during the period. The statistical test shows that intellectual capital has no significant impact on social performance of Islamic banks. However intellectual capital positively and significantly influences financial performance of Islamic banks.

The proliferation of banking sector is an indicator of economic growth in Bangladesh. Conventional Banks as well as the Islamic Banks significantly influence the national economy although there are a number of dissimilarities between the two banking systems. This study was carried out to identify the differences of Conventional and Islamic Banking sectors in terms of ratio analysis. A total of 10 banks in which 5 Conventional and 5 Islamic banks were selected for the study. Some key financial ratios were being used for the analysis. It is found from the study that the Conventional and Islamic Banks had much influence on the national economy as they hold the deposit of general public and invest the funds in profitable projects. The earnings per share (EPS), return on asset (ROA), return on equity (ROE) and return on capital employed (ROCE) were greater in Islamic Banks. It clearly indicates that the Islamic Banks were more profitable and performing a good job in the context of Bangladesh although people preferred Conventional Banking most.

- This paper aims to empirically examine the effect of intangible resources, namely intellectual capital (IC) on the financial performance of Islamic banking in Indonesia for the period 2013-2019. The data needed to calculate the different IC constituents comes from the financial statement data of each Islamic bank, which is the research sample, namely the Islamic bank, which is a foreign exchange bank. Value Added Intellectual Coefficient (VAIC) The methodology designed by Pulic is used to determine the impact of IC on Islamic banking's financial performance. The results show a significant positive relationship between the Sub-component Value Added Intellectual Coefficient (VAIC), namely Human Capital Efficiency (HCE), Structure Capital Efficiency (SCE), and Capital Employed Efficiency (CEE) which have a significant influence on the financial performance of Islamic banking proxied by ROA. Overall, the results show that HCE, SCE, and CEE strongly influence Islamic banks' ability to earn profits. The main limitation of this study lies in its measurement method, the VAIC methodology, which has been criticized by some researchers as not measuring IC. These findings can be useful input for Islamic bank management to manage and invest their resources in the Intellectual Capital (IC) in their institution. The main contribution of this paper is to identify the influence of the subcomponent of intellectual capital (IC) on the financial performance of Islamic banks, which was previously rare in Indonesia.
