The global economic momentum softened, amid increasing trade tensions and tightening financial conditions. The domestic economy faced various idiosyncratic challenges. The country had to go through uncertainties associated with the political transition in the first half. Afterwards, the widening twin deficits and elevated inflationary pressures necessitated policy measures for stabilization, which, as expected, slowed down the economic momentum. Resultantly, the investors’ sentiments remained subdued and financial markets, particularly the foreign exchange and equity markets, observed increased volatility. In response to the market dynamics, the local currency depreciated and the KSE-100 index dipped. The money market, however, operated smoothly by virtue of the interest rate corridor mechanism and improved liquidity conditions. Amid these challenges, the financial institutions, however, remained sound and facilitated the improvement in financial intermediation. Banks, the key player in the financial sector, carried forward the rising momentum in total loans with 22 percent growth, while maintaining strong solvency and liquidity profiles. Their capital adequacy ratio at 16.2 percent stood well above the international benchmark and the non- performing loans ratio decreased to 8 percent, despite some increase in NPLs during 2018. Moreover, the financial inclusion broadened due to joint efforts of the SBP and its regulated financial institutions. Particularly, to pursue the National Financial Inclusion Strategy, SBP introduced policy measures to enhance financial access to priority areas of SME, Housing and Agriculture, and to promote cross cutting themes of Islamic Banking and Digital Financial Services. State Bank, in line with its strategic objective of ensuring financial system stability, under “Vision 2020”, is closely monitoring global and domestic developments and responding appropriately where necessary. The current Financial Stability Review provides a detailed assessment of the emerging risks and highlights measures taken to beef up the financial sector stability. Among the emerging challenges, SBP stepped up its efforts to strengthen the overall AML/CFT regime and fortified the cyber resilience. In addition, SBP progressed towards Macro-Prudential Policy Framework by introducing regulatory guidelines for the designation of Domestic Systemically Important Banks (DSIBs), improving coordination among financial sector regulators and stepping up efforts for the establishment of an overarching National Financial Stability Council (NFSC). I hope that the stakeholders would find this report helpful and informative. Any suggestions, comments and feedback are welcome.

  • Institutionalizing Islamic Banking: the Case of Bank of Khyber, Pakistan
    Journal of Islamic Business and Management 2018, 8(S), 218-226 https://doi.org/10.26501/jibm/2018.080S-002 Institutionalizing Islamic Banking: The Case of Bank of Khyber, Pakistan Muhammad Mohsin Khan 1∗, Muhammad Atiq 2, Karim Ullah 3 1Director, Institute of Management Sciences, Peshawar, Pakistan 2 Assistant Professor, Institute of Management Sciences, Peshawar, Pakistan 3 Founding Head of Centre for Excellence in Islamic Finance, Institute of Management Sciences, Peshawar, Pakistan Keywords Abstract. This article discusses the move for conversion of a conventional Islamic Banking bank into Islamic one taking the Bank of Khyber (BoK), Pakistan as a Financial Intermediation case study. It provides an in-depth and emprical narrative of how Islamic Institutional Theory banking has been introduced at the Bank of Khyber particularly motivated by political and social incentives to reconstruct the current conventional banking model. Initially, BoK was operating on conventional model of financial intermediation and gradually, an Islamic banking division, a Shar¯i‘ah Board, and multiple Islamic depository and financing processes have been introduced and institutionalized to establish social and political legitimacy within the context. This case highlights the core challenges to the BoK team and value creation of the institutional intervention, particularly shared value creation and collaborative efforts across the industry, from an institutional theory perspective. This case carries multiple implications for the Islamic banking professionals and offers practical insights on the process of business model reconstruction within the context of Islamic banking.
