21. 21 Islamic Banks (iB) : Promote Financial Stability Advantages as Islamic banks during current global uncertain periods: 1.Profit and loss sharing system will be beneficial and provide fair return to all parties. With this system, islamic banks will promote social welfare as the benefit receivers need to pay zakah as part of social contribution while complying to the shariah principle. 2.The products offered by islamic banks always use real sector transaction as its underlying; therefore, the impact of islamic financial transaction can be significant to promote economic growth 3.Reduce potential excessive speculation since islamic finance prohibits the speculative motive. Derivatives products are prohibited by islamic principles because of the existance of gharar 4.In the case of Indonesia: a.islamic banks nature is to focus on developing small and medium enterprises as the underlying, and there are relatively small risks involved b.Exposure to currency risk, financial sector is relatively small

22. Indonesian Islamic Banks – Policy Direction and Prospect

23. 23 Maintaining Strong Growth Innovation of genuine sharia Products and services : support the people need,more broaden customer base and more productive activities Strategic alliance and strong infrastructure support : i.e. Government support, Optimization synergy with iB’s holding/Grup companies. More professionals & qualified HRD Intensified Education and socialization This strategy will attract more broaden customers to use services from islamic banks, and in the end this will have an impact to strong growth With Rp.199,72 trilion of iB (BUS+UUS+BPRS) asset in Dec’12 (eq $ 22 billion) we only account for 4.6% of Indonesian banking industry, or less than 2% of global islamic assets.

24. 24 BI Policy: Product Innovation 1.In the current highly competitive environment, islamic banks cannot rely on standard product to attract customers. Islamic financial institutions must act and able to offer pure and genuine Islamic products that bring up the uniqueness of sharia principles that can meet customers' and investors needs 2.BI will facilitate Working Group Discussions (with National Sharia Board and indonesia Accountant Association) to activate innovation and creativity regarding product development to attract more customers. 3.BI will consider to improve related regulations on Islamic banking products in order to increase the efficiency of the product licensing process. 4.In order to increase public awareness to Islamic banking products (iB financial literacy), socialization programs / public education and communication will be more focused on equality "parity" and the uniqueness of "distinctiveness" of the product Islamic banking. Islamic banks are expected to strengthen the product development unit in order to accelerate the equalization of products and service levels with conventional banks, to increase service to meet customers needs

25. 25 BI Policy: Emphasis Financing in Productive Sector 1.Bank Indonesia in its capacity will facilitate link and match program between islamic banks and industry which is prioritized by the government, such as infrastructure, agriculture, as well as others. 2.Focus Group Discussions and business match will be the main forum to match supply and demand between banks and productive sectors.  BI have facilitated several FGDs and have received positive feedbacks. In return, this will help promoting resilience of islamic banks, as well as generate higher asset growth, so that asset share of islamic banks compared to that of in conventional will gradually increase  projection of 15-20% in the next decade
