İstanbul INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT FOR THE PERIOD JANUARY 1, 2012- DECEMBER 31, 2012 We have audited the accompanying unconsolidated balance sheet of Asya Katılım Bankası A.Ş.

This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the regulation on “Licensing and Operations of Audit Firms in Banking” published in the Official Gazette No: 26333 on November 1, 2006 and the International Standards on Auditing. We planned and performed our audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatements. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the consideration of the effectiveness of internal control and appropriateness of accounting policies applied relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

  • Mauritania 2012
    Mauritania 2012 www.africaneconomicoutlook.org Mauritania The economy has grown significantly since 2010 and this is set to continue until 2013, mainly due to investments in mining, government capital spending and a buoyant manufacturing sector. Serious food shortages are expected in 2012 due to lack of rainfall. Urban youth unemployment -- 50.8 % of young men and 69 % of women – is a major problem. Overview The economy (not counting oil) grew 4.3% in 2011 and was predicted to expand faster (4.7%) in 2012, to record a significant advance for the third running. This was driven by major investment in mining especially gold, sizeable government investment and the robust performance of manufacturing. Continuing budget discipline kept the base budget deficit (excluding oil) to 1% of GDP in 2011, with 0.8% predicted for 2012, thanks to good revenue collection and strict control of government spending. Higher world prices for staples led to government spending to soften the effects on the poor and to better allocation of resources. The overall deficit continued to widen, however, from 1.8% of GDP in 2010 to 2.1% in 2011 and an expected 3.1% in 2012 due to insufficient external funding, especially for projects. Monetary policy focused on controlling inflation, which was an average 5.5% (6.3% in 2010), and reviving the financial system by recapitalising banks. The presidential majority and the opposition conducted a broad dialogue in 2011 which relaxed the political tension caused by postponing legislative and local elections. Political peace was restored with creation of an independent national elections commission and opening up broadcasting.

    INTELLECTUAL DISCOURSE, 23: Special Issue (2015) 425-451 Copyright © IIUM Press ISSN 0128-4878 (Print); ISSN 2289-5639 (Online) An empirical investigation of banking customers’ perception of the viability of Islamic banking in Côte d’Ivoire Adewale Abideen Adeyemi* and Ibrahim Zare** Abstract: This study empirically examines the perceptions of bank customers in Côte d’Ivoire on the viability of Islamic banking in the country. Specifically, the study investigates the level of awareness of the bank customer respondents about Islamic banking as well as the factors that motivate their patronage. A sample of 274 respondents residing in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire took part in this research. The data elicited via an adapted research instrument is subjected to both descriptive and inferential statistics using IBM SPSS AMoS software version 21. The results reveal that most of the Ivorian bank customers are aware of Islamic banking but lack knowledge about its operation. Moreover, the customers indicate commendable willingness to patronize the Islamic banks when established in Côte d’Ivoire as long as it is not relatively costlier to do so. The likely patronage-influencing factors include religion, banking-related and customer-related factors, and societal norms. Recommendations based on research findings are also offered. Keywords: Côte d’Ivoire; customer perception; Islamic banking; measurement model; religion. Abstrak: Kajian ini secara empirikalnya mengkaji tanggapan pelanggan bank di Côte D’ Ivoire terhadap daya maju perbankan Islam di negara tersebut. Secara khususnya, kajian ini menyiasat terhadap tahap kesedaran pelanggan * Adewale Abideen Adeyemi is an Assistant Professor, IIUM Institute of Islamic Banking and Finance, International Islamic University Malaysia.
