The uniqueness of Murabaha (cost-plus) financing has suggested another theoretical relationship between credit risk and the financial performance of banks. While studies from Asian countries supported this assertion, empirical analyses from Africa reported conventional findings on the credit risk effect on performance. These conflicting reports were partly due to the exclusion of factors specific to Murabaha financing in past studies in Africa. This study was conducted to assess the effect of credit risk on the financial performance of Islamic banks in Africa. Data were collected from annual reports of the selected Islamic banks for nine years from 2012 to 2020. A fixed-effect regression model was estimated after conducting the preliminary tests of Breusch Pagan Lagrange Multiplier (BP/LM) and Hausman. The study found that non-performing Murabaha (0.0220) and provision for impairment of Murabaha financing (0.3506) have positive effects on return on assets. The results were found to be significant at a 5% level of significance. Based on this finding, it was concluded that credit risk exposure that arises from Murabaha (transactions) financing tends to improve the financial performance of the banks. Therefore, the study recommends that Islamic banks increase their financing of Murabaha transactions to boost their profitability and compensate for high credit risk exposure.

  Purpose: The purpose of this paper investigates the impact of debt financing on airline’s (transport) sector performance of Pakistan. Design/Methodology/Approach: We gathered the data from secondary sources. In this study, we used a data sample of 11 years from 2008-2018 by using companies annual reports. Due to unavailability of data, only 3 transport companies have been taken for analysis. The software which we used in analysis is SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science). Findings: The findings of the study suggests that there is opposite relationship between debt financing and financial performance of airlines. Debt is measured from three ratios, short term debt to total assets, long term debt to total assets and total debt to total assets ratio. For the measurement of performance, we used return on assets and earnings per share. We concluded on the basis of findings that the companies should focus on retained earnings which is cheaper source of finance and use less level of debt. As the more level of debt use by the companies, the performance of companies’ decrease. Implications/Originality/Value: There is only one study is available in Pakistan which used transport sector in Pakistan in debt financing context

The Impact

The uniqueness of Islamic banks (IBs) is shown through compliance with Islamic law (Sharia) which is approved through Sharia Supervisory Board (SSB) and presented for stakeholders by Sharia Supervisory Board Report (SSBR). This study seeks to achieve three main objectives as follows: (1) it identifies the degree of IBs’ transparency in compliance with Sharia and their commitment with the governance standards that issued by Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI); (2) it aims to measure the impact of adoption AAOIFI on the degree of Sharia disclosure; and (3) it seeks to test the economic consequences of Sharia disclosure based on its impact on financial performance. We analyse content of annual reports and websites of 120 IBs across 20 different countries for year 2016. Regression analysis shows compliance level for Sharia disclosure based on our index for SSBR is 53% with higher level compliance for IBs that apply AAOIFI standards comparing with banks that adopting International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Therefore, adopting AAOIFI has a positive effect on enhancing the degree of Sharia disclosure. Moreover, Sharia compliance has a positive influence on financial performance based on both Returns on Assets (ROA) and Tobin’s Q as a robustness test. This study adds value to Islamic accounting literature by being a primary study. There is a lack of research on the topic and this paper measures the consequences of Sharia disclosure over the financial performance of IBs as well as the role of Islamic standards (AAOIFI) in enhancing the image of Islamic banks through supporting their compliance with Sharia.

The aim of this study is to investigate the role of Islamic Corporate Social Responsibility in moderating the effect of zakat on Islamic commercial banks’ financial performance. Out of 13 Islamic commercial bank listed by Otoritas Jasa Keuangan from 2012 to 2017, there were only five banks reporting Statement of Zakat Fund Sources and Disbursements. Hence, the final samples of this study consist of 30 observation data. Secondary data collected from 30 annual reports were gathered through documentation. This study utilizes moderated regression analysis to test three research hypotheses. The results shows several findings. Firstly, the amount of corporate zakat being reported in the Statement of Zakat Fund Sources and Disbursements has positive impact on Islamic banks’ financial performance. Secondly, Islamic CSR as measured by Islamic reporting index developed by Belal et al. (2015) has negative impact on Islamic Banks’ financial performance. Thirdly, the role of Islamic CSR in moderating the effect of zakat on financial performance was confirmed.

Purpose This study aims to explore the extent of risk disclosure (RD) among conventional banks (CBs) and Islamic banks (IBs) listed on stock markets in the Gulf cooperation council (GCC). It also examines the influence of RD on the banks’ financial performance as measured by return on assets (ROA) and return on equity (ROE). Design/methodology/approach This study uses content analysis to examine RD in the annual reports of 16 CBs and 14 IBs in the GCC for a sample of 240 firm-year observations over the period 2007 to 2014. Findings The study shows no significant differences between the RD reported in the annual reports of CBs and that of IBs. On average, a CB reported 234 sentences while an IB disclosed 244 sentences of RD in its annual report. The authors also find that both types of banks had an upward trend over the periods. While the means of RD reported by CBs have significantly improved over the period, the RD reported by IBs has not. Similar results are also found when the authors compared the RD pre- and post-financial crisis period. Finally, the authors find that there is a significant association between RD and both models of financial performance (ROA and ROE) for IBs, after controlling other variables. However, RD has a significant association with only ROE for CBs. Research limitations/implications The bank selection was restricted to publicly traded banks in the GCC. Other financial institutions and different types of industries were not considered. Further research could determine whether the results obtained in this study could be generalized to different industries in the GCC and or in other countries. Practical implications This study provides evidence on the significant association between RD and the financial performance of CBs and IBs in GCC countries. This study could be helpful to regulatory authorities in encouraging banks to adopt the best practice of RD and thus promote banks’ transparency. Originality/value This is the first known study to examine the RD practices of both types of banks and their association with banks’ financial performance in five-GCC countries (Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and Bahrain), based on a longitudinal analysis of year-end annual reports, covering eight years period from 2007 to 2014.

The Relationship

Purpose This paper aims to investigate the relationship between the composition of Sharīʿah supervisory boards (independence and frequency of meetings) and the performance of Islamic banks in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. Design/methodology/approach The study developed a multiple linear regression model, and data were collected from the annual reports of 48 standalone Islamic banks listed in the GCC countries covering the period between 2013 and 2017. Findings The results showed a statistically significant and negative relationship between the composition of the Sharīʿah supervisory boards and the performance of Islamic banks. Research limitations/implications As the current study used only one indicator, that is Return on Assets to measure performance, it is recommended to expand the framework of this study, through the addition of market-based performance indicators such as Tobin’s Q. Practical implications This study recommends the GCC countries to follow a more proactive Sharīʿah governance model to strengthen their frameworks from both regulatory and non-regulatory aspects. Originality/value The study contributes to the Sharīʿah governance and Islamic banking literature relating to the GCC countries as previous studies gave no attention to the composition of Sharīʿah supervisory boards.

The current study uses CAMEL (Capital Adequacy, Asset Quality, Management Quality, Earnings Efficiency, and Liquidity) ratings system, with the addition of Shariah Compliance Ratio (CAMELS) in order to detect the financial distress of Islamic banks in Malaysia. Using neural network, the study analyses data collected from the 17 Islamic banks annual reports for the period 2006 to 2010. It was found that all Islamic banks have higher ETA ratios which portray a good performance of capital adequacy and are less likely to face financial distress. As for asset quality, all Islamic banks did not have the possibility to face financial distress as they are able to handle their non-performing loans throughout the years. Meanwhile for management quality, all Islamic banks show lower ratios in paying salaries to their employee. Earning efficiency for all Islamic banks show better performance and will be less likely to face financial distress in terms of return on assets but not for return of equity. Liquidity indicates that the Islamic banks have a large number of loans but they have sufficient liquid assets in order to cover their liabilities and commitments. Lastly for Shariah Compliance, Islamic banks have complied with all rules and regulations that have been regulated by Bank Negara Malaysias Shariah Advisory Council.

The Relationship

The objective of this study is to provide empirical evidence on the influence of financial performance based on the framework of Maqashid Sharia toward the company value moderated by the Islamic Social Reporting (ISR) of Islamic banking in Indonesia. This study applied Agency Theory, Signaling Theory and Legitimacy Theory to justify the relationship between the variables studied. The sample of this study consisted of 11 Islamic Banks in Indonesia. Data were collected from financial statements and annual reports published by Bank Indonesia (BI) and Islamic Banks for the fiscal year of 2011-2015. Data were analyzed based on Moderating Regression Analysis (MRA). The results showed that financial performance, ISR and the interaction between the financial performances and the ISR does not simultaneously affect the company value at a significance level of 5%. However, it showed a significance level at 10% level of confidence. Partially, the results do not show that financial performance nor the ISR has influence on the company value. The result also indicated that ISR does not moderate the relationship between the financial performance and the company value.

This study assessed the effect of asset mix on financial performance of selected consumer goods firms in Nigeria. The specific objectives of the study were to determine the effects of tangible non-current assets, current and intangible assets structures and returns on asset. Ex post facto research design was adopted and data obtained from the annual reports of the companies for a seven-year period from 2013 to 2019. Multiple regression analytical technique was employed in analyzing the data. The findings of the study revealed that the independent variables employed in the study explained about 13.7% of the variations in returns on asset. Specifically, both current and intangible assets have positive and significant effect with ROA at 5% level of significance. Noncurrent asset has positive but insignificant effect on ROA. Thus, the assets composition of a firm plays a critical role in the financial performance of that firm, although it explains only about 14% of the performance of the firm. It was therefore recommended that firms should increase their current and intangible assets, but should keep it at an optimum level that will ensure that maturing short-term business obligations are met.

Conventional And Islamic Banks

The purpose of this study is to analyze the conventional and Islamic banking in Pakistan. For this study, a sample of 19 conventional banks and five Islamic banks was selected. The CAMEL approach is used to evaluate the performance of both conventional and Islamic banks. Ten ratios were used to measure profitability, liquidity and credit risk. Our findings suggest that Islamic banks are less efficient than conventional banks in asset management, management capability and liquidity. Conventional banks have better earning capability in terms of return on assets and overhead ratios. The analysis also shows that Islamic banks have better capital adequacy than conventional banks.
