Product Development in Islamic Banks

A systematic study of the process of developing Islamic financial products for banks. Islamic banking began in the 1970s with the aim of providing financial services compatible with Islamic law. Driven by market forces it has grown rapidly in Muslim countries and in international financial sectors. It is projected to grow at an annual rate of 15-20% and a key factor determining this future growth is the availability of new products that will satisfy the needs of various segments of society.While other texts discuss the basic principles and contracts used in Islamic banking and finance, few discuss how these can be used to develop financial products. This book fills that gap, starting with the basic principles that form the building blocks of contemporary Islamic financial products and then discussing the more intricate issues relating to product development processes.

Product development is a complex process and requires involvement of the
whole organisation. Chapter 4 discusses various aspects of the product
development system under the headings of strategy and plans, structure and
resources, and ...

Islamic Finance and Economic Development

Risk, Regulation, and Corporate Governance

A comprehensive guide to mitigating risk and fostering growth in the Islamic financial sector Islamic finance, like conventional finance is a business of financial intermediation. Its distinctive features relate to the requirement that it abides by Shari'a rules that promote fairness of contracts and prevention of exploitation, sharing of risks and rewards, prohibition of interests, and tangible economic purpose. Islamic finance should not fund activities considered “haram” or sinful. In Islamic Finance and Economic Development: Risk, Regulation, and Corporate Governance, authors Amr Mohamed El Tiby and Wafik M. Grais expound how these distinctive features bear on the opportunities and challenges facing the Islamic finance industry’s development, risk management, regulation and corporate governance. An experienced banker with various Middle East banking institutions, notably as former Vice President at UAE Union National Bank and Mashreq bank, Dr. El Tiby offers an informed perspective on corporate finance from within the Islamic finance industry. With a long experience in international development and finance, notably as former Director at the World Bank and Founder and Chairman of a Cairo-based Financial Advisors company, Dr. Grais brings global financial experience on the topics of financial systems assessments, corporate governance, Islamic finance, and public policy. Covers the history and basics of Islamic finance, and provides insight into current conditions and future landscape Explores regulatory framework, including opportunities and challenges for the industry’s development and mainstreaming Presents an approach to developing a systemic Shari'a governance framework to govern operations in the Islamic finance industry

Development. Islamic finance's renaissance did not escape international finance
leaders' notice. Promptly, they understood its financial intermediation nature and
the opportunities it offered for financial deepening, diversification, and inclusion.

Economic Development and Islamic Finance

Although Islamic finance is one of the fastest growing segments of emerging global financial markets, its concepts are not fully exploited especially in the areas of economic development, inclusion, access to finance, and public policy. This volume is to improve understanding of the perspective of Islamic finance on economic development, social and economic justice, human welfare, and economic growth.

This relatively doable transformation from underdeveloped to developed status
seemed rather simplistic to me, a young ... We used to debate about what was the
binding constraint to development; he stressed inconsistent macroeconomic ...

Human-Computer Interaction and Management Information Systems: Applications. Advances in Management Information Systems

"Human-Computer Interaction and Management Information Systems: Applications" offers state-of-the-art research by a distinguished set of authors who span the MIS and HCI fields. The original chapters provide authoritative commentaries and in-depth descriptions of research programs that will guide 21st century scholars, graduate students, and industry professionals. Human-Computer Interaction (or Human Factors) in MIS is concerned with the ways humans interact with information, technologies, and tasks, especially in business, managerial, organizational, and cultural contexts. It is distinctive in many ways when compared with HCI studies in other disciplines. The MIS perspective affords special importance to managerial and organizational contexts by focusing on analysis of tasks and outcomes at a level that considers organizational effectiveness. With the recent advancement of technologies and development of many sophisticated applications, human-centeredness in MIS has become more critical than ever before. This work focuses on applications and evaluations including special case studies, specific contexts or tasks, HCI methodological concerns, and the use and adoption process.

Indeed, MIS centers on the study of information systems, rather than on
information technologies, which are these systems' constituent. Human actors
play an essential role in information systems. In the MIS field, HCI studies
humans in their ...

Developing an Integrated Drug Information System

Toolkit Module 1

The module in the Global Assessment Programme (GAP) toolkit contains methodological guidance on the development of culturally appropriate systems for the collection of reliable and internationally comparable drug abuse data, in order to support existing drug information systems by promoting their conformity with internationally recognised standards of good practice, and to focus on harmonisation of drug abuse indicators.

Coverage of the system Having reviewed the country situation, it must be
considered at what level the integrated drug information system is to operate. In
other words, is it going to be a national system, a regional system, or a local or

Central Bank Reserve Management

New Trends, from Liquidity to Return

This book addresses the welfare gains and costs of accumulating foreign exchange reserves and the implications for the functioning of the global financial system. The tremendous growth of central bank reserves has led to an increased focus on raising returns in addition to the traditional preference central banks have for maintaining liquid portfolios. Issues such as asset and currency diversification, the impact of new accounting rules and the profit distribution agreements with the government are analysed, adding new insights to the current debate on the optimal size of central bank reserves. This book brings together a wide range of experts from central banks, investment banks and the academic community.

The obligor is the Treasury in the former case and both the Treasury and the
Bangko Sentral in the latter case. Another exception among monetary authorities
is Hong Kong, where only a small fraction of reserves are financed with
