Islamic Banking is a system of banking that operates in accordance with the

rules of Shari’ah (Islamic Law), known as Fiqh al-Mu’aamalaat (Islamic

Commercial Law). Islamic Banking is based on Islamic Commercial Law, which

was founded over 1400 years ago. Therefore Islamic Banking was existent at

that time.

Modern Islamic Banking grew due to the desire of Muslims to fashion all

aspects of their life in accordance with principles of their faith.

History of Islamic Banking

The first modern experiment with Islamic Banking was undertaken in Mit Ghamr, Egypt by Dr Ahmad Elnaggar. The pioneering effort, led by Ahmad Elnaggar, took the form of a savings bank based on profit-sharing in 1963.

In 1971, the Mit Ghamr Savings project became part of Nasser Social Bank.

In 1975, the Islamic Development Bank was initiated with the mission of providing funding to projects in the OIC member countries. The first modern commercial Islamic Bank, Dubai Islamic Bank, opened its doors in 1975. In the early years, the products offered were basic and replicated conventional banking functions in a Shari’ah compliant manner.

Within a ten year period 1975-1985, 27 more Islamic Banks were established. Also by 1985, many conventional banks offered Islamic Banking products or opened Islamic window banks.

By the year 2000 there were more than 200 Islamic

Financial Institutions worldwide

Islamic Bonds - Sukuk

Sukuk are often referred to as Islamic Bonds: Islamic investment instruments that are

registered in the name of their holders. Sukuk holder's funds are combined to obtain

profits. Sukuk holders not only have a right to revenue, but are also owners of the

underlying asset.

Sukuk holders would participate in the profits or losses of the investment

proportionate to their ownership of the assets. A Sukuk holder will also be exposed to

ownership risks. In its simplest form Sukuk is a certificate evidencing ownership of an

asset or its usufruct and was developed by Shari'ah experts for the express purpose of

answering the financial world’s demand for a Shari'ah compliant debt instrument.

Cash Flow Considerations

1. The SPV Issuer [Trust] issues Sukuk to investors for cash..

2. The SPV Issuer [Trust] purchases the specified assets (the “Assets”) at a specified price and on a particular payment date. The SPV Issuer [Trust] takes possession and ownership of the Assets pursuant to a Sale Agreement. Exact title to be purchased will be dependent on Tax and Registration considerations

3. The Trustee of the SPV Issuer [Trust] will be an independent entity which will manage the Assets for the benefit of the Sukuk holders (who will be beneficiaries of the SPV Issuer [Trust])

4. The Company leases the Assets for a term corresponding to the tenor of the Sukuk. Lease rental is equal to the cost of credit for Borrower

5. The Company undertakes to service the Assets and to be responsible for maintenance/insurance

6. At maturity the Company agrees to re-purchase the Assets from the SPV Issuer [Trust] at a specified price. If an event of default occurs, then the Company will re-purchase the Assets and the proceeds will be distributed to the Sukuk holders , failing which, the Trustee will have a contractual claim against the Company through the Purchase Undertaking for the benefit of the Sukuk holders.

7. The Sukuk carry the Company risk and should be priced according to the Company’s current bonds.

Comparison between Sukuk and

Conventional Debt Securities

Sukuk

The Sukuk is a participation in the ownership of the company issuing the Sukuk.

Each Sakk (singular of Sukuk) represents an ownership of the underlying asset.

Sukuk holders have the right to profits but also bear losses.

Sukuk are proof/evidence of ownership or beneficial ownership of asset.

The maturity of a Sukuk corresponds to an underlying project or activity.

The Sukuk issue prospectus includes all the Shari'ah rules related to the

issue. The Sukuk manager is required to

abide by the Shari’ah rules

Conventional Debt Securities

The holder of securities does not incur the damages and losses suffered by the company. The rights of the securities holders are not linked to the assets of the company.

These securities represent a share in the financing process through usurious practices.

The term of the securities does not necessarily correspond to the term of the underlying project.

The issue prospectus does not include Shari’ah constraints.

Considerations of the ‘Sukuk Al Ijaarah’

The specifications of the specified assets should be clear and unambiguous

The purchase price and payment date from the issuer should be described fully. The purchase price could be paid immediately or on an instalment basis – based on timing of commissioning, funding is likely to be immediate.

The rentals to be paid by the Company to the SPV Issuer [Trust] should be agreed upon. The rentals could be variable with a floor and ceiling, but will be based on the costs of the SPV Issuer [Trust]. The rental could also be benchmarked to the interest rate

The SPV will remain the owner of the specified assets after installation until the end of the lease period, thereafter the Company will purchase via the purchase undertaking

The Company will undertake to purchase the specified assets at the end of the lease period

The operational expenses and routine maintenance will be the responsibility of the Company

Risks Solutions The SPV Issuer [Trust] remains the owner of the assets

for the entire duration of the lease period

The SPV Issuer [Trust] will have to insure the assets with a

Takaful company, or the Company will be appointed as an

agent to insure. The latter is the more likely solution

The Company defaults in lease payments This will trigger an Event of Default and will result in the

Company having to repurchase the assets under the purchase

undertaking failing which the Trustee will be entitled to realize

the assets and distribute the proceeds to the Sukuk holders

The specified assets depreciate in value The Company undertakes to re-purchase the assets at their

original purchase price. This is specified upfront when the

Sukuk are placed

Indonesia’s Sukuk market is also growing with a nominal amount of US$6.2bn as of May 2011 and an annual growth of 9.3% in 2010

Continued growth in this market is expected due to more attractive structures, ample liquidity in Asia and high oil prices fuelling another petrodollar boom in the Middle East

Liquidity Management / Money Market Instrument

Equity or Commodity Muraabaha

An Islamic fund manager is not permitted to create a portfolio of conventional debt

securities as they involve Riba. All types of conventional debt funds, such as bond

funds, money market funds etc, are impermissible for Islamic investors.

An Islamic alternative to debt funds may be developed; where funds are invested in

Muraabaha operations. After selling a commodity on Muraabaha, the purchase price

becomes a debt, which is specified. The returns on such a fund are therefore

predetermined, similar to a conventional debt instrument. The fund will bear the risk

of owning physical assets, though for a very short period.
