Tiivistelmä: | Islamic law prohibits charging interest. The authors study financial instruments used by Islamic banks and find that most are not based on profit-and-loss sharing (equity) but, instead, are very debtlike in nature. The authors see some bias against providing financing for agriculture and industry. Long-term financing is rarely offered to entrepreneurs. The authors' model shows that debtlike instruments are a rational response by Islamic banks to their contracting environments. |
