A detailed examination of Islamic banking laws and regulatory systems governing Islamic finance worldwide.
The use of common and civil law to licence and govern Islamic financial institutions is examined in detail in this book. It also makes international comparisons and discusses specific laws, from Iran (where all banking is shariah compliant) to Malaysia and the gulf, where Islamic financial institutions compete with conventional banks. As most Islamic banks operate under national banking laws, consideration is given as to how their assets and liabilities differ from their conventional counterparts and what the implications are for risk management. The remit of the guide includes takaful operators, fund management and shariah compliant securities as well as Islamic banks. Key Features *Detailed examination of Islamic banking laws *Evaluation of regulatory systems governing Islamic finance *Global coverage including the Islamic world and countries with Muslim minorities *Examples of the deposit and financing terms and conditions offered by leading Islamic banks Key Words: Islamic banking; Islamic finance; shari'ah compliant securities; sukuk; takaful; Islamic funds
