IDB Kembangkan Penelitian Blokchain untuk Keuangan Islam


IAEI, RIYADH -- Bank Pembangunan Islam (Islamic Development Bank) Arab Saudi menempatkan para penelitinya dalam mengembangkan produk berbasis 'blokchain'. Proyek tersebut telah dimulai dengan lembaga penelitian Islamic Research and Training Insitute dan telah menarik dua mitra blokchain, yakni perusahaan lokal Ateon dan Belgian SettleMint.
Tahap pertama studi ini akan fokus pada kelayakan teknis. Blokchain adalah teknologi yang digunakan banyak mata uang digital.
Keuangan Islam adalah sistem yang ketat melarang spekulasi dan suku bunga. Hal itu mungkin sesuai dengan sifat-sifat cryptocoin, yang dapat diciptakan sebagai aset tetap dan bekerja tanpa memerlukan inflasi, suku bunga dan teknik lain yang digunakan untuk mengendalikan jumlah uang yang beredar dari mata uang fiat (token).
"Faktanya, beberapa ilmuwan Islam berpendapat bahwa Bitcoin lebih Halal (diizinkan) daripada uang fiat atau kertas (misalnya dolar AS) yang digunakan saat ini. Misalnya, dalam literatur Islam, uang perlu memiliki nilai intrinsik. Ini tidak berlaku untuk uang kertas yang digunakan saat ini, tapi berlaku untuk Bitcoin karena nilainya berasal dari bukti protokol kerja," tulis Tim Lea, CEO Veridictum dan pakar mata uang kripto, seperti dilansir dari laman Muslim Village, Ahad (7/1).
IDB menyatakan, bahwa teknologi blockchain sangat menarik bagi kemungkinan penyelesaian segera dan penghapusan risiko counterparty (mitra pengimbang). Arab Saudi adalah salah satu negara dengan sikap yang lebih positif terhadap aset-aset kripto. Walaupun, dalam hal ini mereka akan terintegrasi dengan perbankan dan tidak lantas menggantikan sektor perbankan.
Sementara itu, negara-negara Teluk Persia lainnya telah menguji teknologi blokchain untuk berbagai tugas, seperti real estat dan pendaftaran tanah. Dubai telah menjadi salah satu pusat teknologi aset kripto yang paling aktif. Mereka secara teratur menyelenggarakan pertemuan dan pameran terkait mata uang kripto.

Islamic Agriculture Finance for Rural Economy

Islamic Agricultural Finance is an Ideal  Product for the Development of Rural  Economy  The agriculture sector lacks financial resources, due to which small-scale farmers are facing a lot of problems, consequently affecting the agriculture and livestock sector. But in Muslim countries including Pakistan, the primary the reason behind the lack of financial inclusion in the agricultural sector is unavailability of such financial products that are in correlation with the religious and social belief of the Muslims and if we want to promote agriculture and livestock then we have to introduce such financial products which are in accordance with their religious beliefs, therefore, the use of Islamic Agriculture Finance is necessary for the development of the rural economy especially in Muslim majority countries. These thoughts were expressed by Mr. Muhammad Zubair Mughal, the Chief Executive Officer of Al Huda Center of Islamic Banking and Economics in a seminar in ...

Riba al-Fadl

Riba al-Fadl While  riba an-nasiya =interest is a major issue among Islamist/revivalist preachers, writers and economists, and forms the basis of Islamic Banking, another type of riba—what jurists call  riba al-fadl  ("surplus riba") -- is also forbidden by orthodox jurists.  Riba al-fadl  does not involve paying back over time but instead the trading of different quantities of the same commodity (gold, silver, wheat, barley, date, or salt), typically because the quality of the smaller quantity is superior. Because  riba al-fadl  involves barter, and barter is much less common than it was in early Meccan society,  riba al-fadl  is of much less interest nowadays than  riba an-nasiya . [440]  It is also considered (at least by some sources) a form of riba prohibited by the  Sunnah  rather than the Quran.  [Note 54]  Taqi Usmani states that  Riba al-fadl  was developed by Muhammad and so was not part ...

Portfolio and Default Risk of Islamic Microfinance Institutions

Portfolio and Default Risk of Islamic Microfinance Institutions By: Dr. Luqyan Tamanni, MEc Editor: Ustaz Sofyan Kaoy Umar, MA, CPIF Abstract Islamic microfinance is a growing sector that is expected to provide a long-term solution to poverty in the Muslim world. The role of microfinance institutions in poverty alleviation is still debatable, however, established literature provides assurance that microfinance does contribute to the development of the financial sector and reduction of poverty in developing countries. The rise of competition in the microfinance sector has forced many microfinance institutions to resort to commercial funding and lending activities, which according to some studies has led microfinance institutions to become riskier. The paper explores portfolio and default risk of Islamic Microfinance Institutions (IMFIs) and finds that they are facing relatively lower risks than conventional MFIs. Using Ordinary Least Squares regression to analyse port...
