An integrated risk-management framework for Islamic banks
This guide shows students and professions how to identify, measure and mitigate risk in Sharia'h-compliant banks. Using simulated Islamic bank financial statements, it demonstrates the integrated risk management process, and investigates how risk regulatory insights have implications for banking policy.
The global financial crisis of 2008 has increased the need for risk management in Islamic banks. However, the process is complicated: Islamic banks worldwide provide diverse financial facilities and services under one roof yet lack a uniform risk map and a structured risk management framework.
