  • 20 Bank Pasargad
    Experience of Iran November in Islamic Banking 2019 1 In the name of God Experience of Iran in Islamic Banking 1. Preface During the past few decades Islamic banking has grown dramatically in the world and many non-Islamic countries have welcomed it as an alternative banking system working in parallel to conventional banking and have authorized establishment of Islamic banks in their territory or Islamic banking departments within conventional banks observing Islamic banking principles and guidelines. After the Iranian revolution, contrary to many Islamic countries which carry out both Islamic and conventional banking systems, such as GCC countries, as required by the Iranian constitution, all banks in Iran, both foreign and domestic, are obliged to exclusively observe and practice Islamic banking. Henceforth, there is no relationship or cooperation between conventional and Islamic banks in Iran. Notwithstanding, all Iranian banks are free to have correspondent banking relations with conventional international banks established outside of Iran. 2. Iran Banking System The history of banking commenced in Iran in year 1888 by the British when they established the Imperial Bank of Persia. Soon after, the Russians opened the Russian Loan and Development Bank. The first Iranian bank, Pahlavi Ghoshoon (today called Bank Sepah) was opened in year 1925. Bank Melli Iran (meaning the “National Bank of Iran” in Farsi) was established in year 1928 and functioned as both a commercial and a central bank during the period 1931- 1960. 2 In 1960, the Central Bank of Iran was established according to the Banking and Monetary Law, and accordingly Bank Melli Iran became merely a commercial bank.
