The British colonial govern­ ment, despite its initial reservations on the practicability and soundness of the demand, came around to the viewpoint of the Muslims and agreed to partition India. The Pakistan that came into being had two geographical units separated by 1,600 miles ofIndian territory. The Eastern Wing became the independent Republic of Bangladesh at the end of 1971. Pakistan now comprises the West Wing of the Pakistan created in 1947. The territory of Pakistan now covers 796,095 square kilometres. It borders on Iran to the southwest, Afghanistan to the northwest and India to the east. The southern border is the coast of the Arabian Sea. In 19~1, the estimated population was 83.78 million.

  • The Importance of Islamic Finance for Pakistan and the Challenges Ahead
    Governor : Mr. Tariq Bajwa Title : Governor SBP’s Address to the Launching Ceremony of AAOIFI Shariah Standards – Urdu Version Date : December 12, 2018 Event : Launching Ceremony of AAOIFI Shariah Standards – Urdu Version Venue : Marriott Hotel Karachi. - Shaikh Ebrahim Bin Khalifa Al Khalifa, Chairman, Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI) - Mufti Taqi Usmani, Chairman Shariah Board, AAOIFI - Distinguished speakers, ladies and gentlemen Assalam-o-Alaikum and Good Morning! I feel honored to be here on this important occasion of launch of Urdu version of AAOIFI’s Shariah Standards. We are all aware that national language is an important ingredient of any culture and most effective mode of communication in a country. With this in perspective, translation of global standards into our national language is an important milestone, as it would remove language barriers to understand Shariah Standards. I believe this Urdu version of the Shariah Standards will be instrumental in improving awareness about Islamic finance especially amongst the Shariah scholars, academia and practitioners of Islamic finance. The scholars and all other experts involved in this project deserve great appreciation for their commendable role. As we are all aware, Islamic Finance Industry is relatively new to the Global Financial Landscape. Events like these are important not only for dissemination and awareness but also reinforce the emerging significance of fast growing Islamic Finance. Page 1 of 6 Ladies & Gentlemen! Islamic banking started initially as a niche market for the faith sensitive clientele and is now increasingly becoming an integral component of global financial system.

  • Islamization of Financial System in Pakistan
    10 Islamization of Financial System in Pakistan Islamic banking has been defined as banking in consonance with the ethos and value system of Islam and governed by the principles and rules laid down by Islamic Shariah. Interest free banking is a narrow concept denoting a number of banking instruments or operations, which avoid interest. Islamic banking, the more general term is expected not only to avoid interest-based transactions, prohibited in the Islamic Shariah, but also to participate actively in achieving the goals and objectives of an Islamic economy. Establishment of a small saving bank in a rural area of Egypt in 1963 was the first formal attempt for putting the principles of Islamic finance into practice. Islamic banking and finance is now an established sector and an important segment of the international financial market arena (see Box 10.1). Steps for Islamization of banking and financial system of Pakistan were started in 1977-78. Pakistan was among the three countries in the world that had been trying to implement interest free banking at comprehensive/national level. But as it was a mammoth task, the switchover plan was implemented in phases.1 An Ordinance was promulgated to allow the establishment of Mudaraba companies and floatation of Mudaraba certificates for raising risk capital. Amendments were also made in the Banking Companies Ordinance (BCO), 1962 to include provision of bank finance through PLS, mark- up in prices, leasing and hire purchase. Separate Interest-free counters started operating in all the nationalized commercial banks, and one foreign bank (Bank of Oman) on January 1, 1981 to mobilize deposits on profit and loss sharing basis.

  • Assessing the Financial Performance of Investment Banks in Pakistan During the Current Financial Crisis
    The Lahore Journal of Business 2 : 2 (Spring 2014): pp. 67–88 Assessing the Financial Performance of Investment Banks in Pakistan During the Current Financial Crisis Mirza Asjad Baig,* Muhammad Ali Usman,** Mirza Owais Baig*** Abstract Investment banks play a vital role in the economic development of a country through their impact on capital and money markets. In developing countries, they promote and support business investors in bringing about economic stability. The investment banking industry faced significant challenges as a result of the financial crisis in 2008. This study presents a detailed financial analysis of the recent performance of seven investment banks in Pakistan for the period 2007–11 with the help of financial ratios. The banks were assessed across several perspectives: profitability, efficiency, liquidity, leverage, and other financial measures such as institution size. Our findings show that all banks faced a significant squeeze on profitability, although the smaller banks performed better overall. This implies that successful performance does not necessarily depend on economies of scale. Keywords: Investment banks, financial ratios, financial crisis, economic instability. JEL classification: G32, G01, O16, G24. 1. Introduction The banking sector plays a vital role in the development and welfare of a society, and are especially important for a healthy economy among developed countries. During the 18th century, industries expanded their business and trading activities with the beginning of large-scale production. The banking industry became important in promoting business operations as an essential facility. In today’s global market, it is necessary for the banking sector to provide quality products/services and focus on customer satisfaction to augment its performance.

  • Islamic Banking in Pakistan: a Critical Analysis
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive Islamic Banking in Pakistan: A Critical Analysis Shaikh, Salman Islamic Economics Project 31 July 2012 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/42497/ MPRA Paper No. 42497, posted 07 Nov 2012 15:47 UTC Islamic Banking in Pakistan: A Critical Analysis Salman Ahmed Shaikh1 Abstract Islamic banking in Pakistan has completed one decade of operations in Pakistan and now there are 5 full-fledged Islamic banks and more than 15 conventional banks with Islamic banking windows. Due to the consistent double digit growth in total assets, the market share had steadily risen to 7% by the end of 2011. However, meaningful assessment of Islamic banking requires looking at how far they have contributed to uphold Islamic principles, values and bringing about or at least working towards equitable distribution of income. But, Islamic banking industry continues to use debt based financing modes which are priced using KIBOR as the benchmark. Equivalence of means test confirms that Islamic banking spreads are higher than conventional interest rate spreads. The paper analyzes the Islamic banking philosophy, principles and practices and identifies the shortcomings which need attention of Islamic scholars as well as the regulators.

Introduction Islamic finance is a growing industry which is consistently evolving and has been resilient to reach and sustain its growth momentum despite the deepening financial and economic crisis since 2007.

  • An Introduction to Monetary Policy Framework of Pakistan: Instruments, Objectives, and Mechanism
    © Pakistan Journal of Economic Studies https://journals.iub.edu.pk/index.php/pjes/ (2018) 1:2, 111-129 An Introduction to Monetary Policy Framework of Pakistan: Instruments, Objectives, and Mechanism M. Abdul Rehman Shah1, Kashif Raza2, and Manzoor Ahmad Alazhari3 Abstract In an economy, a central bank's behavior in formulating monetary policy is characterized by some specific actions. These actions meet the complex process of decisions about how a central bank regulates its policy instruments responding to the macroeconomic environment. In the case of Pakistan, the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has the mandate to regulate the monetary and credit system through a variety of monetary policy instruments and implementation mechanisms. Despite empirical studies on the subject, the monetary policy mechanism of SBP is comparatively less explored by connecting the policy stances to financial markets. We present a comprehensive review of the framework of monetary policy with modern monetary policy instruments. This study is equally important for researchers, investors, and bankers an insight into procedures of monetary policy of SBP. Similarly, it also helps stakeholders of the corporate sector and SMEs to allocate their resources efficiently after knowing the policy mechanism of the central bank.
