Managing Director & The Global Head of Islamic Finance at Fitch Ratings | Award-Winning Leader | Top 100 Middle East Sustainability Voice | Industry Thought Leader, Researcher & Media Contributor
Thoughts in this week's Islamic Finance News cover ''A tired tune: Shariah banking liquidity woes persist" “Islamic interbank markets are much shallower than conventional markets, more so in countries with few Islamic banks,” according to Bashar Al Natoor, the global head of Islamic finance at Fitch Ratings. For the full story published originally 16th April 2024 (Volume 21 Issue 16): https://lnkd.in/dtdsj2ne Islamic banks in many countries continue to face a limited range of Islamic liquidity management instruments (ILMI) compared with conventional banks despite recent initiatives in a number of markets, Fitch Rating says. ILMI can provide Islamic banks more funding options and can help them invest their excess liquidity. Gaps in ILMI are more prominent in countries where Islamic banking is still-developing and niche. From more on our views on Islamic banks liquidity see our comment titled ''𝕀𝕤𝕝𝕒𝕞𝕚𝕔 𝕃𝕚𝕢𝕦𝕚𝕕𝕚𝕥𝕪 𝕋𝕠𝕠𝕝𝕤 𝕃𝕚𝕞𝕚𝕥𝕖𝕕 𝔻𝕖𝕤𝕡𝕚𝕥𝕖 𝕀𝕟𝕚𝕥𝕚𝕒𝕥𝕚𝕧𝕖𝕤 𝕚𝕟 𝕊𝕠𝕞𝕖 𝕄𝕒𝕣𝕜𝕖𝕥𝕤": https://lnkd.in/dTeuX_CH ➖🌐⬇️ 𝕱𝖔𝖗 𝖒𝖔𝖗𝖊 𝖔𝖓 𝕴𝖘𝖑𝖆𝖒𝖎𝖈 𝕱𝖎𝖓𝖆𝖓𝖈𝖊: https://lnkd.in/fucmrFT ➖#️⃣⬇️ #islamicfinance #sukuk #islamicbanking

“… Islamic banks not only played a moderating role in alleviating the adverse impacts of short-term liquidity shocks of GFC and the two banking crises but also behaved counter-cyclical or at the very least less pro-cyclical in their financing growth over the up- and down-cycles of the host economy, alluding to their relatively stable and resilient disposition. These results provide indirect evidence that multinational banks may have had used their internal capital markets for reallocation of funds amongst their subsidiary network. However, during the cyclical fluctuations of the home economy, both conventional and Islamic foreign-owned banks remained unaffected, substantiating that macroeconomic conditions at home did not directly affect lending/financing supply of foreign-owned subsidiaries in our sample host economies. Islamic banks even continued to provide greater financing during the banking crisis of the home economy, again substantiating their ‘stability and resilience’ view.” Access IKR at https://lnkd.in/dKrQAzW5 to read the thesis by Dr. Naseem Bukhari entitled “The role of multinational banks and international transmission of financial shocks in dual banking system: do Islamic multinational banks make a difference?” #ikr #inceifuniversity #kmc
