Abstract

The main objective of this study is to evaluate three issues that are of great importance to modern Islamic banking. The first issue is on the problem of extending financing under the concept of Mudarabah. The second issue is on the measurement and management of non-performing loans in Islamic banks in Malaysia as compared to conventional banks in the United Kingdom and Japan and what lessons can be learned from their policy on non-performing loans. The third issue is on the potential of asset-backed securitization as a tool for obtaining funds and managing risk in modern Islamic banks. It is important to study these three issues because these issues could impede the further develop of Islamic banking. By addressing these three issues it is hoped that it would help Islamic banks to be efficient in its operation thus ensuring its survival.
