The takeaway is that Shariah law mandates is related to fundamentals and, thus has a direct effect on the risk-return profile of all sorts of different products. This is referre

Following the recent financial crisis that has affected some major economies around the world, and its attendant consequences, there have been calls for ways of practicing finance more responsibly especially here in the UK.

Although tiny in its present size compared to conventional finance, its rate of growth, moral underpinnings and relative stability has been pointed out as a reason why it should be taken seriously.

Emerging in the early 1970s, the Islamic financial industry has recorded impressive growth, in excess of 15 per cent per annum, and has spread across more than 70 countries. However, the widening dichotomy between the theory and practice of the Islamic economic paradigm seriously undermines the promise it holds as a potentially alternative system for greater social and economic justice. One of the key obstacles to achieve this is its inability to steer away from the path-dependence and straightjacket of the neoliberal economic doctrine.

Islamic finance is rapidly gaining momentum around the world. Interpretations of Shari'ah, or Islamic law, state that investments must be free from elements of riba (interest), gharar (uncertainty), maysir (speculation) and haram (unethical) business activities. Islamic equity investing, therefore, utilizes a set of business activity screens and accounting-based screens to exclude firms considered non-permissible under Shari'ah. Despite increased academic interest, there is still much uncertainty surrounding the financial implications of these investment principles. This Ph.D. thesis, comprise

Ce contexte explique l’intérêt porté à la finance islamique, qui aurait été épargnée par la crise, en raison, notamment, de l’interdiction de la spéculation (maīsir), illicite au regard du droit islamique. C’est également dans ce contexte que des études ont présenté cette finance comme une concurrente, voire une alternative à la finance

Abstract:
Islamic principles encourage the use of risk-sharing modes of financing and private equity is one of the organizational formats that uses these instruments. However, there has been no in-depth study on Islamic private equity (IPE) that examines the issues arising in implementing equity-based financing. IPE involves an investment where Islamic Financial Institutions (IFIs) and investors are bound together by a contractual relationship that is greatly influenced by trust. Private equity relationships involve investments in different projects and ventures on a risk-sharing basis with not much kno

Abstract:
The prohibition of insurance as specified in the conventional business model has led to Takaful being established for the Muslim community to fulfil their accountability/obligations towards Allah. The absent of a contract in Takaful, a replacement of the conventional sale contract in insurance has resulted in the emergence of Muamalah contracts as a basis for contractual structures and this bear the minimum acceptable requirement of Shariah. The attainability of such contractual structures to be used in Takaful had been unstable in the sense that it needs various reviews, and this has occurred

Abstract:
The study compares the efficiency of Islamic and conventional banks, during the period 2006-2012, by employing a non-parametric approach- the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). In order to minimise the bias resulting from the inherent dependency in the first stage of the DEA, the DEA outcomes were replaced with the bootstrapped estimators and replicated them 500 times. Accordingly, confidence intervals are constructed for efficiency measures, which subsequently, improved further the accuracy of the findings and provided more reliable arguments for policy implications. The study applies a two-sta

Abstract:
This thesis consists of three quantitative studies of Islamic and conventional assets in Islamic and non-Islamic countries. The studies explore the performance characteristics as well as the impact of macroeconomic news surprises and the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) on these assets. First, I use a unique Malaysian dataset to identify individual Islamic and non-Islamic stocks and find that Islamic stocks provide similar returns at a lower risk than non-Islamic stocks. As such, the Islamic portfolio is closer to the mean-variance efficient frontier and the minimum variance portfolio, relative t

Abstract:
As the fundamental principles of Islamic finance are socio-economic justice and benevolence (Al-Adle Wal-ihsan), some commentators have raised serious questions about the social benefits that Islamic banks have brought to those on low incomes. This research involves an empirical study looking at the financial exclusion of less affluent UK Muslims before and since Shari’a compliant finance was introduced. The impact of the introduction of Islamic banking in enhancing the financial inclusion level of low income Muslims is assessed. The main findings of the research are that the majority of UK Mu

Abstract:
The non-interest and profit-loss sharing schemes of Islamic finance (IF) are attracting increasing global attention. Despite exposure to the similar opportunities as other Western countries that have adopted the financial business model there is little evidence of Islamic finance windows operating in the conventional institutions in Canada. This thesis takes a qualitative approach to bring the issue forward in Canadian social science literature by exploring the perceived challenges to, and the potential of, the development of IF offerings with a focus on factors affecting the supply and manage

Abstract:
The Islamic law prohibits charging and paying of interest but allows earning profits on the basis of participation in the market. This legal injunction has motivated the establishment and successful operation of a number of Islamic financial institutions. The emergence and rise of these institutions is an important academic and practical development of our time. The theory of Islamic finance evolved on the basis of profit and loss sharing (PLS) principle underlying participatory Islamic financial contracts. However, the practice of Islamic finance does not conform to the theory and overwhelmin
