The author intends to disclose to the public Islamic banking information as well as
the Ages
attract the attention of the public to join the programme organised under Islamic
banking. I agree with the author who gave exposure to Islamic banking to the
public. This can attract people to join in Islamic banking as well as make Islamic
banking a bank that is not only open to Muslims but also open to various religions
The rate of penetration into the Muslim consumer market can be increased.
The majority of deposits at Islamic banks are still made by non-Muslims, which
is understandable given that Muslims in Malaysia have other primary (non-
banking) channels to store or park their money. The existence of these outlets
has provided Muslims in Malaysia with numerous viable options.
The necessity to improve service delivery stems from the need to adhere to
Shariah regulations throughout implementation. As a result, greater work on
balancing the delivery of seamless service while adhering to Shariah criteria is
required.
The rise and mainstreaming of Islamic finance were aided by public policy and political will. Malaysia
provided legislation, rules, fiscal advantages, infrastructure, and other overt demand stimuli as part of the
Malaysian Islamic Financial Center (MIFC) project to create a suitable climate for the incubation and
subsequent rapid growth of Islamic banking.
