The 2008 Financial Crisis

Islamic banking and finance have become increasingly widespread over the past two decades, particularly in Muslim-majority countries in the Middle East, North Africa, and Southeast Asia. This paper uses country-level data to examine how growing Islamic banking sectors have affected financial market outcomes in six countries. The analysis is split into two parts, first testing the hypothesis that countries with large Islamic banking sectors were less affected by the 2008 financial crisis than countries with strictly conventional banking systems, and second testing the hypothesis that emerging Islamic banking sectors have had a positive effect on private saving in countries with large Muslim populations. I find evidence that the banking systems of countries with large Islamic banking sectors fared no better at providing credit during the financial crisis than conventional alternatives, but do find evidence supporting a positive correlation between Islamic bank development and private saving.

The Impact

The aim of the present study was first to consider the impact of COVID-19 on Kuwait’s economy. Second, it attempted to examine the role of Islamic banking and finance in achieving socioeconomic justice and attaining best practices by securing social goods. Hence, the research assessed how Islamic banking and finance can help in reconstructing the economy based on Maqasid Al-Shari’ah (higher ethical objectives) to redevelop social, economic, and environmental welfare, especially in the COVID-19 era. A theoretical approach was adopted, namely, the grounded theory method (GTM), to explore COVID-19 related solutions for achieving sustainable economic development. The findings show that Islamic banking and finance can be employed to mitigate the impact of coronavirus and can be used as an alternative financial system to support both affected people and entrepreneurs. The paper expands on previous literature discussing the role of Islamic finance in management strategies through Islamic ethical objectives, with a particular focus on Kuwait’s post-COVID-19 era. This research can help policymakers to develop mechanisms and supporting approaches for Kuwait’s economy.

The Global Financial Crisis

Islamic banking seems to be an unfamiliar concept in Indian economy. Besides having a huge potential, Islamic finance is considered to be infeasible and impractical in Indian conventional system of banking. The search for alternatives to conventional banking in the aftermath of the global financial crisis trained the spotlights on Islamic banking in many parts of the world. Today that Islamic banking has unfortunately been misunderstood in India as a religious charitable venture restricted to the country’s Muslim community. Despite its striking growth in other parts of world such as the Middle East, South East Asia (which chiefly include Malaysia and Indonesia) and Europe, it is yet to be positioned as a realistic alternative financial system and not a religious one. In this paper, an attempt is made to understand the underlying concept of Islamic banking and finance and erode some of the major misconceptions in the same context.

Positive Effect

This study aims to examine the impact of Shari’ah governance mechanism on the performance of Islamic banks (IBs) during the financial crisis of 2008. Data were collected from 66 IBs over 18 countries covering the period of 2007–2015 and analyzed using the System-GMM estimator. The findings indicate that an increase in SSB effectiveness increases IBs’ performance even during the crisis periods. A possible justification for this positive effect is related to the SG structure of IBs that allows them to undertake higher risks to achieve a high efficiency level. For this, the IBs, policymakers and practitioners should consider these findings when aiming to improve SG practices in the Islamic banking industry, which in turn may help in protecting IBs during crisis and non-crisis periods. More specifically, they should give due importance to SSB (size, cross-membership, educational qualification, reputation and expertise) in enhancing the performance of IBs during the crisis and non-crisis periods. This study provides additional evidence on how IBs can sustain their performance during either crisis or non-crisis periods through adopting appropriate SG structure. However, the study only focuses on a small sample of 66 IBs due to lack of the data.

The Impact

The last decade witnessed dramatic growth of the Islamic banking and finance sector, which had largely been credited to its adoption of the profit and loss sharing principles. However, in practice, the Islamic banks mostly reply on debt-like financing methods such as mark-up and leasing finance instead. Consequently, the investors are exposed to default risks. This study empirically examines the impact of investor protection on financial performance of Islamic banks based on an unbalanced panel data collected from 91 Islamic banks and financial institutions worldwide across 1991-2010. Econometric techniques are adopted to specify the models. Results show that stronger investor protection results in better financial performance in the Islamic banking and financial institutions. The paper concludes with acknowledging the limitations and discussion of future research directions

This chapter examines the spatial and temporal dynamics shaping the development of financial markets and activities to account for the rise of Singapore as an international financial centre (IFC). The analysis draws upon the preceding 1997 Asian financial crisis as industry changes and policy response back then set the stage for subsequent industry shifts, which have shaped the responses and impacts of firms, regulators, and consumers following the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. Key industry shifts include banking liberalization and changing forms of financial consumption in Singapore. The growing prominence of financial markets and emerging sectors, such as Islamic banking and finance (IBF) and offshore renminbi (RMB), and fintech are also examined in terms of their importance for Singapore’s future role as an IFC.
