1. Introduction

1.1 Background of the study

As the requirement of the report first we need to know about investment & Types investment in Islamic Banking and Risk in First Security Islami Bank Ltd. Investment is a term frequently used in the fields of economics, business management and finance. It can mean savings alone, or savings made through delayed consumption. In generally Investment means deploying of fund in a profitable sector to get more returns.

Islamic Economic system is based on equitable treatment of assets. Islamic Shari’ah prevents injustice in the acquisition and disposal of material resources and required full utilization of these resources in order to allow satisfaction of worldly needs of human beings in the optimal manners; thus avoiding wastage and enabling human beings to perform their obligations to Allah and the society.

In today’s modern world the banking sector is uprising and playing a vital role in our economic development. It is also playing a significant role in expanding investment operation of the country. It builds up the country day by day and rural people increasing their daily life. Islamic Banking system is one of the most effective systems in banking sector. Islami Banking a new role of banking that operates on principles adhering to the Quranic norms forbidding usury and transactions, including granting of loans or credits for interest. The economic rationale for eliminating riba (interest) and establishing the Islamic banking system is based on values of justice, efficiency, stability and growth. First Security Islami Bank Ltd. is one of the largest commercial bank and Islamic financial institution of the country. It operates all its activities under the obligation of Islamic Shariah including. As an Islamic Bank FSIBL has some differences in investment modes along with regular activities. It has some unique products & services in financing Investment. Such as Bai-Murabaha, Musaraka, HPSM, Bai Salam, Bai-Asraf etc.

According to the principle of Islamic Shariah, interest is strictly prohibited. So FSIBL is conducted based on profit & loss sharing approach rather than interest basis. So, to operate the financing on the basis of “Profit & Loss Sharing Approach” FSIBL considers financing investment under different Islamic modes and executes “Buy & Sell” operation with the clients.

Literature Review For

Islamic Banking

2.1 “Islamic banking is an area that has mushroomed to become an increasingly substantial segment within the global financial market. It has been recognised as a viable and competitive form of financial intermediation not only in Muslim countries but also outside the Muslim world and offering a wide range of financial products and services. The industry that started on a modest scale since its inception in the mid-1970s has shown a rapid expansion and evolution over the past three decades. It is in fact one of the fastest growing industries, having posted double-digit annual growth rates for almost 30 years (Iqbal and Molyneux, 2005). According to information released by Council for Islamic Banks and Financial Institutions (CIBAFI), there are over 284 financial institutions operating in 38 countries and managing US$250 billion. This does not include conventional banks offering Islamic financial products and services through window operations, which CIBAFI estimates to manage about US$200 billion.(Paper published in International Journal of Islamic and Middle Eastern Finance and Management; Vol.1, Issue 2. 2008 (Published by Emerald Group Publishing,Understanding the Objectives of Islamic Banking: A Survey of Stakeholders’ Perspectives By: Dr. Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki)

2.2 “Islamic bank is a financial institution whose statutes, rules and procedures expressly state its commitment to the principles of Islamic Shariah and to the banning of the receipt and payment of interest on any of its operations.” Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC)

2.3 “Islamic Bank is essentially a normative concept and could be defined as conduct of banking in consonance with the ethos of the value system of Islam.”( Dr. Ziauddin Ahmed)

2.4 “There are two reasons for establishing the right philosophies for any Islamic bank. First, the philosophies will be used by the management or policy makers of the banks in the process of formulating corporate objectives and policies. Secondly, these philosophies serve as an indicator as to whether the particular Islamic bank is upholding true Islamic principles. (Haron in 1996)

Chapter – 3

Concept about the Islamic Banking

Islamic banking refers to a system of banking or banking activity that is consistent with the principles of Islamic law (Sharia) and its practical application through the development of Islamic economics. Sharia prohibits the payment or acceptance of interest fees for the lending and accepting of money respectively.An Islamic Bank is a financial institution that operates with the objective to implement and materialize the economic and financial principles of Islam in the banking arena. The Islamic banks organize their operation on the basis of profit/loss sharing and other modes which are permitted in Islam.

The fundamental differences between Islamic banking and conventional banking, not only in the ways they practice their businesses, but above all the values which guide Islamic banking whole operation and outlook. These values prevailed within the ambit of Shariah (Islamic law) are expressed not only in the minutiae of its transactions, but in the breadth of its role in society.

In other words, as a Shariah-based firm, Islamic banks need to fulfil social obligations that go beyond the conventional capitalist worldview aiming at only maximizing profits.

3.1 Objectives & Aims of Islamic Banking:To understand Islamic banking in its entirety requires full comprehension of its objectives and philosophy. As a Shariah-oriented business entity, Islamic bank is vigorously expected to be guided by the philosophy of Islamic business. There are given the objectives of Islamic banking:

  • To conduct interest free banking.
  • To establish participatory banking instead of banking on debtor creditor relationship.
  • To invest through different modes permitted under Islamic Shariah
  • To accept deposits on profit-loss sharing basis.
  • To establish a welfare-oriented banking system.
  • To extend co-operation to the poor, the helpless and the low-income group for economic uplift.
  • To pay a vital role in human development and employment generation.
  • To contribute towards balanced growth and development of the country through investment operations particularly in the less developed country for achieving the ultimate goal of Islamic economic system.

Table I summarises the fundamental differences between FSIBL Islamic banks and conventional banks.

Table I: Fundamental Distinctions between Islamic Banks and Conventional Banks

Islamic Banks Conventional Banks
FSIBL Functions and operations are guided by sources of Shariah (Islamic Divine Law) namely the Quran and the Sunnah (traditions of the Prophet Muhammad p.b.u.h.). Functions and operations are guided by secular principles and not based on any religious doctrines and values.
FSIBL aim at balancing between profit-maximization doctrine and social responsibility. Institutions that emphasis on profits maximization and low risk.
In the modern FSIBL system, it has become one of the service-oriented functions of the IBBL to collect and distribute Zakat. It does not deal with Zakat
Financing instruments of FSIBL are based on either asset-backed trading contract or equity financing with risk sharing. Financing instruments are based on interest-bearing mechanism.
FSIBL Deposits are not interest-oriented but profit-loss sharing oriented whereby investors’ principal repayment is not guaranteed but entitled to a predetermined share of actual profit realized by the business. Conventional banks Deposits are interest oriented and the investor is assured of a predetermined rate of interest with a guaranteed principal repayment.
The FSIBL has no provision to charge any extra money from the defaulters. Normally It can charge additional money (compound rate of interest) in case of defaulters.
Islamic banks are restricted to participate in economic activities which are unethical and prohibited by Shariah such as businesses involving alcohol, prostitution, pork, environmental pollution etc. There are no such restrictions for conventional banks.
Islamic banks need to do charity by paying zakah (compulsory religious levy) out of There are no such requirements to do charity.
The FSIBL give greater emphasis on the viability of the projects. The conventional banks give greater emphasis on credit-worthiness of the clients.
Strictly speaking, FSIBL cannot do that A conventional bank has to guarantee all its deposits.

3.2 The Origin of Islamic Banking

The origins of Islamic banking can be traced back to the practice of mudaraba by the Prophet Muhammad (Sm) himself. The Prophet (Sm) was mudarib (agent) for his wife, who entrusted her capital or merchandise to him for trading and got back the principal plus an agreed share of the profit. As a reward for his labor (and entrepreneurship), the Prophet (mudarib) received his share of the same. The mudarib, however, was not liable for losses resulting from the exigencies of travel or from an unsuccessful business venture. This form of partnership is called mudaraba. There is another form of partnership called musharaka, in which the musharik (agent) has a contribution to the capital and can therefore, claim a higher percentage of profit. As early as in the seventh century, the tax revenue from Iraq was sent across the desert to Medina in the form of a mudaraba. Caliph Umar is known to have invested orphans’ money in merchant trading between Medina and Iraq. Musharaka partnerships were practised in the north-south trade between Egypt and Jeddah during the eleventh century. As many as 32 mudaraba contracts were practised in the 17th century in the Turkish city of Busra. Mudaraba was in practice in Tunisia, Indonesia, Arabian Peninsula and India.

3.3 The concept of Modern Islamic Banking:

Modern Islamic banking concepts came from the historical practice of the concept of a ‘three-tier mudaraba’.

The first tier, there is the individual, rab-al-mal, who wishes to invest capital.

The second tier is the mudarib (agent), to whom the rab al-mal entrusts his capital by contract and finally,

The third tier, there is the entrepreneur, with whom the mudarib signs a contract, and to whom the mudarib passes the capital originally entrusted to him by the rab-al-mal.

3.4 The first attempt to establish an Islamic financial institution:

The first attempt to establish an Islamic financial institution took place in Pakistan in late 1950s with the establishment of a local Islamic bank in a rural area. Borrowers of the bank did not pay interest on the credit advanced, but a small charge was levied to cover the bank’s operational expenses. Although the experience was encouraging, two main factors were responsible for its failure.

First, the deposits made in the bank were to be held for long and the depositors, who were mostly the landlords found that with increasing number of borrowers the gap between the amounts of capital available and that of the credit demanded had become very large.

Secondly, the depositors showed considerable interest in the way their money was lent out but the bank staff did not have complete autonomy over the bank’s operations and therefore, could not always satisfy the customers in this regard.

3.5 Starting of Islamic banking in Bangladesh:

First, Islamic banking started in Bangladesh through establishment of the islami bank bangladesh Ltd. (IBBL), which is considered to be the first interest-free bank in Southeast Asia. It was incorporated on 13 March 1983 as a public limited company under the companies act 1913. In December 2001, IBBL had 121 branches, its authorised capital was Tk 1000 million and paid up capital Tk 640 million.

Second, al baraka bank Ltd, often called the second Islamic bank of Bangladesh, commenced banking business on 20 May 1997. It is a joint-venture enterprise of Al-Baraka Investment and Development Company, a renowned financial and business house of Saudi Arabia, Islamic Development Bank, a group of eminent industrialists of Bangladesh, and the government of Bangladesh. The authorised capital of the bank is Tk 600 million and its paid up capital is Tk 259.55 million. The bank has now 35 branches in different parts of the country. (banglapedia).

Dr. Seyed Nezamuddin Makiyanhas mentioned about the operational risk of Islamic banking in the article on “Risk Management and Challenges in Islamic Banks” which was published in the Journal of Islamic Economics, Banking and Finance.These are given below-

Operational risk may arise from various sources:

a) The unique activities that Islamic banks must perform.

b) The non-standardized nature of some Islamic products.

c) The lack of an efficient and reliable Shari’ah legislation system to enforce financial contracts.

From the viewpoint of Islamic Shariah, in order to be justified islamically the banking system has to avoid interest. Consequently, financial intermediation in Islamic banking between the bank and the client takes place as a partner rather than a debtor-creditor. The financial activities of modern conventional banks are based on a creditor-debtor relationship between depositors and bank on the one hand and between the borrower and the bank on the other Interest is regarded by conventional banks as the price of credit reflecting the opportunity cost of money. As interest is prohibited in Islam, commercial banking in an Islamic framework could not be based on the creditor-debtor relationship. The other aspect of the theoretical basis of Islamic banking is that the interest free bank is not risk free. This principle is applicable to two main factors of production, i.e. labor and capital. According to this principle, as no payment is allowed to labor, unless it is applied to work, no reward for capital should be allowed unless it is exposed to business risk. From these two principles of the theoretical basis of Islamic banking, it may be said that Islamic financial relationships are of a participatory nature (Ahmad, 1993).
