The general consensus of financial experts is that liquidity is the lifeblood of any organisation, which is inclusive of Islamic banks. Hence, effective liquidity management is essential for the efficiency of banking institutions and the economy as a whole. The major provider of liquidity is the short-term money market instruments.  Islamic financial institutions just like their conventional counterparts use short-term mobilised deposit funds to finance long-term loans and projects which expose them to asset liability mismatches and thus, are vulnerable to liquidity problems. Addressing the potential liquidity risk due to the cash-flow mismatches requires an efficient and vibrant Islamic money market as it is an essential and integral part of Islamic financial system. It therefore raises the need for developing an Islamic money market where Shari’ah-compliant financial instruments are to be traded and operated based on Shari’ah principles. Although it is considered the surest approach to sound liquidity risk management in Islamic banks, the dilemma that Islamic money markets are facing now is acute shortage of Shari’ah-compliant financial instruments and the controversies surrounding the few available instruments. A successful liquidity risk management therefore requires ensuring well functioning Islamic money markets with some if not all controversies/addressed through embarking on development of new products or promoting innovation in order to enable Islamic banks to compete effectively with their conventional counterparts. Hence, this study attempts to present a better understanding of various Islamic money market instruments, their roles in managing liquidity and their relationship with liquidity risk management.

Liquidity risk management is today a major focus for regulators, due to increasing complexity of financial markets and concerns related to inadequate identification and managing liquidity risk, exacerbated by the financial crisis. Because the financial market is increasingly interconnected, a liquidity shortfall at a single institution can have system-wide consequences.This paper aims to provide analytical explanations of how important decisions made by bank managers can influence the capability of an institution to finance increases in assets and meet their commitments without impairing cash flow. Banks are particularly susceptible to liquidity risk because the maturity transformation from short-term deposits into long-term loans is one of their key business activity. Further, there can be uncertainties in cash-flow in the external occurrences and agents' behavior. Skillful liquidity risk management is essential, and the present work analyses impact of some management strategies on Basel III liquidity ratios.

This study mainly aims to explore the current practice and prospects of FinTech start-ups financing in Oman, particularly the IFIs (Islamic Financial Institutions) financing practices and the challenges faced by these start-ups in obtaining it. The study applies qualitative methods in procedures of in-depth interviews with eight Islamic banks’ managers in Oman. The findings revealed that the financing of the FinTech start-ups in Oman still in the infant stage and below its potential. This might be due to the general lack of interest in this area by the Omani start-up businesses. This situation might be due to the lack of clear strategic vision of Omani financial institutions, including both Islamic and conventional financial institutions with regards the Fintech start-ups. The findings also showed that the start-ups in Oman prefer long term financial schemes, while the Islamic financial institutions (IFIs) generally prefer to offer short term financing on Musharakah and Ijarah contracts. Lastly, the findings showed that the IFIs are positive regarding the prospects of growth and success of FinTech in Oman. It is noteworthy that this is one of the early studies that addresses the FinTech start-ups financing from an Islamic perspective, and hence places the ground for the future studies to be conducted in this area.

Abstract This study examines the relationship between financing structure and bank liquidity risk. We compare the findings between Islamic and conventional banks for the case of Malaysia. We adopt four measures to represent financing structure; namely 1) real estate financing, 2) financing concentration, 3) stability of short-term financing structure and 4) stability of medium-term financing structure. Two BASEL III liquidity risk measures are tested; namely, liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) and the net stable funding ratio (NSFR) to measure short- and long-term liquidity risk, respectively. Based on panel data regression comprising 27 conventional and 17 Islamic banks from 1994 to 2014, our findings show that real estate financing and stability of short-term financing structure for Islamic banks are positively related to both liquidity risk measures. This implies that an increasing number of real estate financing and a stable short-term financing structure may increase Islamic banks’ short- and long-term liquidity risks. However, although real estate financing does not affect conventional banks’ liquidity risks, a stable short-term financing structure and increasing financing concentration can positively influence bank long-term liquidity risk. Our findings shed light crucial policy implications for regulatory bodies and market players in the context of liquidity risk management framework as well as the need to develop a separate framework between conventional and Islamic banking institutions.

ABSTRACTIslamic banking in Indonesia has experienced significant growth, including assets, financing providedand the number of customers. Murābaḥah is the sale and purchase of goods at the original price with theagreed-upon profit. In murābaḥah the seller must tell the cost of the product he buys and determine anadditional level of profit. This research is a library research about the murābaḥah contract according tomuamalah fiqh and its application in modern Islamic financial institutions. Methods of collecting data indocumentation and various sources related to the murābaḥah contract are then analyzed inductively anddeductively. The results of the study are the murābaḥah foundation is the principle of buying and sellingwith a deferred payment system. Murābaḥah, as used in Sharia banking, is based on two main elements,namely the purchase price and related costs, and the agreement on mark-up (profit). Islamic banks adoptmurābaḥah to provide short-term financing to customers for the purchase of goods even though thecustomer does not have the money to pay. The murābaḥah financing portfolio in Islamic banks reaches 70-80%, but in practice there have never been any problems, including; collateral which is a problem of fiqh,risk dependency as a problem of the bank, bankruptcy and delay in payment are the problems of customers,and profits are too high, namely the problem of coming from the community. Therefore, Islamic banks mustmake improvements in the implementation to be in accordance with Sharia.Keyword : Murābaḥah, Financing Instruments, Modern Islamic Financing

<p><em>Abstract</em></p> <p><em>The banking industry is an industry that is vulnerable to the risk, as it involves the management of the public money that is temporary in the sense that it can be withdrawn at any time to be played back in the form of a variety of investments  such as the purchase of securities and fund placement. One of the bank's risk is liquidity risk which is the risk caused by the poor level of bank liquidity. Liquidity risk (liquidity risk) is the risk arising from the bank unable to meet short-term obligations in the community when needed, which is caused by the shortage of bank liquidity. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the determinants of the level of liquidity risk of Islamic banks in Indonesia for a period of four years from 2010 through 2013. Results showed that age, leverage, size and profitability is an important determinant of Indonesian Islamic banks liquidity risk. On the other hand, the research also found that the explanatory variables tangibility is not a strong explanatory variables to determine the liquidity risk of Islamic banks in Indonesia.</em></p>
