The purpose of this study is to examine the bankruptcy profile of the Islamic banking industry in Pakistan for the post-crisis period 2007-2008. This study used Altman’s Z-score bankruptcy evaluation model for evaluating bankruptcy rates of the sampled Islamic banks from Pakistan for the post-crisis period 2009-2015. ANOVA result shows the P-value with 0.002, which implies that the sampled Islamic banks from Pakistan do differ in their rates of bankruptcy. Regression results show that the variables liquidity and productivity ratios have a significant positive impact on the bankruptcy profile of the Islamic banking sector in Pakistan. While profitability and insolvency, ratios indicated an insignificant impact on the bankruptcy profile of the Islamic banking industry in Pakistan. The overall analysis of this study is viable to draw the attention of researchers and practitioners towards the deteriorating bankruptcy profile of the Islamic banking sector in Pakistan.

PurposeIslamic banks provide an alternative financial system based on Sharia’h (Islamic law). However, critics argue that operation at Islamic banks is violating Sharia’h particularly in terms of provision of interest free services, risk sharing and legal contract. The purpose of this paper is to empirically evaluate the Sharia’h practice at Islamic banks in Pakistan by considering some basic principles of Sharia’h. Design/methodology/approachPrimary data are collected from 63 branches of Islamic banks in Pakistan. Questionnaire is used as an instrument. The study uses structural equation modeling that includes confirmatory factor analysis and regression analysis. Data are codified and analyzed using SPSS and Amos. FindingsThis study finds that Islamic banks are providing interest free services, ensuring that transactions and contracts offered by Islamic banks are legal and offering conflict-free environment to customers. In contrast, estimated results expose that Islamic banks are not sharing risk and Sharia’h supervisory board is not performing its role perfectly. Similarly, it is found that organization and distribution of zakat and qard-ul-hassan are weak at Islamic banks. Research limitations/implicationsData are collected from Islamabad federal capital of Pakistan that hold just 5 per cent share of Islamic banking industry. This small share may not provide true picture of Islamic banking sector. Practical implicationsTo ensure risk sharing, Islamic banking industry must consider the development of new modes of financing and innovation of more products based on Sharia’h. State Bank of Pakistan should ensure separate regulatory framework that enable Islamic banks to provide qard-ul-hassan, organize and allocate zakat. Originality/valueThis paper discusses the perception of bankers, who are actually the executors, about Shariah’s practices at Islamic banks in Pakistan. There are not many discussions on this topic that could be found, and hence this could be considered as a significant contribution by this paper to the existing literature of Islamic finance.

The Stability

A vibrant banking sector remains instrumental to the stability of every economy. Islamic banks are now considered as iris spuria of the banking industry. Countries such as Saudi Arabia have been hailed as the Islamic banking basin. Nevertheless, how well is this sector growing and performing in Saudi Arabia itself? This motivates us to carry out this study. The current study's key objective was to measure Sharia-compliant banks' efficiency on the CAMEL Framework, a commonly accepted framework for banks' financial health. CAMEL is fundamentally an acronym for which the first letter from the five primary segments of a bank operation is jumbled, i.e. “|C|apital adequacy, |A|sset quality, |M|anagement quality, |E|arnings ability and |L|iquidity”. The system is popularly being used for determining the financial soundness and stability of banks. The current study employs this framework to judge the financial performance of four fully Sharia compliant banks or Islamic banks in Saudi Arabia. The publicly accessible audited data of these banks over ten years was taken for analysis. From the final results of the analysis, it is found that all the banks performed stupendously well on the CAMEL framework. AlRajhi Bank was rated number one of all four Sharia-compliant banks. However other three banks namely Alinma Bank, AlBilad Bank, and Aljazeera bank have also done well and overachieved all the criterion of CAMEL's ranking. However, the study proposes a comparison of Sharia-compliant banks with conventional commercial banks. Moreover, it recommended that more banks should engage in offerings of Sharia based products.

Current Practices

The study investigates empirically whether the current practices of Sharīʿah-based financing contracts namely, Murabahah, Musharakah, Mudarabah, Istisna, Bai Bithaman Ajil, Ijarah and other contracts in the Malaysian Islamic banking industry achieved equitable income and wealth distribution. To do so, the study applied the bounds test and ARDL model to investigate the relationship between Sharīʿah-based financing contracts and Malaysian GINI coefficient index over the period from 1Q 2014 to 1Q 2019. In analyzing the long- and short-run implications, it was found that the practice of such Sharīʿah-based financing contracts in the Islamic banking industry achieved equitable income and wealth distribution in Malaysia using Murabahah, Mudarabah, Istisna, Bai Bithaman Ajil, and other (i.e., forward Ijarah) financing contracts. On the other hand, the findings indicated that Musharakah and Ijarah-based financing contract practices did not achieve equitable income and wealth distribution in Malaysia. This may be because the current practices of both contracts which seem to be handled as debts instruments and designed to the benefit of the banking sector only. To improve the Islamic banks’ financing practices in Malaysia, the outcomes of the study suggest that bank operators should strengthen the weight of Sharīʿah-based profit and loss sharing financing contracts with small and mid-size enterprises (SMEs) instead of corporations. In other words, Islamic banks are able to achieve fair income and wealth distribution and uphold the concept of justice for all by gradually increasing Musharakah-based financing for SMEs that can potentially grow and create economic value. Further, to solve the problem of Ijarah contract practices, Islamic banks must take steps to enhance the requirements of Ijarah contracts, specifically ownership transformation, maintenance responsibility, default penalty, and the issue of legal treatment as well as bear the costs, risks and rewards related to the leasing asset instead of borne by the clint. The empirical findings of the study will provide valuable input for banks policymakers, particularly central banks, and Islamic bank management to evaluate the current practice of Islamic finance and proactively correct shortcomings to achieve equitable wealth distribution. This study is a pioneering investigation that empirically evaluates whether the current practices of Islamic banking financial instruments achieve the aims of the equitable financial system, and ensure that Islamic banks, as intermediaries, address the issue of inequality and attain equitable wealth distribution worldwide.
