Future Challenges Liquidity Liquidity- enhancing financial instruments & the development of capital market. Limited scope Can benefit from economies of scale &enhancement of scope. Both approaches offer diversification benefits. Concentrated banking Diversifying their base of depositors, reduce their exposure, introduction of Internet banking, geographical diversity on the liabilities side. Risk management framework can be enhanced by improving the transparency in current financial disclosure. Measurement & management of risk need to be supplemented with analytical method. ISLAMIC BANKING VERSES COMMERCIAL BANKING

Areas of improvement & steps forward To enhance Financial Engineering that includes the design, development & implementation of innovative financial instruments, new securities or new process of creative solution to corporate finance problems, provided to be Shariah complaint. There is need to establish supporting institutions to act as a Lender of Last Resort . There is need to achieve Uniformity in, & Harmonization of, Shariah Standards across markets & borders. To develop Fee -Based Services like, Joalah, Wakalah & Kifalah to exploit the full capabilities of Islamic banks by diversifying the scope of non bank financial services. Developing benchmarks based on the rate of return reflecting Islamic modes of financing instead of using interest base benchmarks such as the London interbank offered rate (LIBOR) which has been accepted on an adhoc based. Creating a secondary market to enhance the liquidity, & standardizing contracts, to reduce the risk of asset backed securities. ISLAMIC BANKING VERSES COMMERCIAL BANKING

Areas of improvement & steps forward Standardizing the operations & instruments will pave the way for pooling assets, much needed for enhancing liquidity in the market. By expanding the scope of services, Islamic bank could spread the fixed costs since they are similar to universal banking in a form of hybrid between commercial & investment banking. Having a Shariah board for every institution is not efficient. A Shariah board for the system as a whole is needed to ensure that rules are defined & enforced in compliance with the contractual obligations to all stockholders. Well developed Islamic capital market will benefit borrowers, institutional investors, together with enhancing the stability of Islamic banks. A well developed Islamic microfinance industry will promote economic development in underdeveloped Islamic countries, also it will economically empowered the poor segments of society since they will be able to move from being non-bankable to bankable, this will expand the base of the depositors & investors.
