as of 2019, there were 5 full-fledge Islamic banks operating in Pakistan and nearly all conventional banks have islamic windows.
Islamic banks captured more than 15.5% share of the total Pakistan's banking market and have far greater potential and capacity to take major share in the market.
methodology : researchers have examined state bank of Pakistan's sharı‘ah governance framework and compared it with the sharı‘ah governance framework of Malaysia, in light of ifsb guidelines.
based on key findings, focused group interviews of sharı‘ah scholars were carried out to get their perception about the sharı‘ah compliance and effectiveness of sharı‘ah governance framework in Pakistan.
findings : the study focused on 5 key components of a good governance system, independence of sharı‘ah board, competence, confidentiality, consistency and disclosure requirement.
the study revealed that Pakistan's sharı‘ah governance system is compliant with ifsb guidelines and comparable with Malaysian model.
