- W2200314584 abstract "ABSTRACTThis study examines the relationship between financial risk and performance of Gulf Cooperation Council Islamic banks and the relative importance of the most common types of risk. The study covers 11 of the 47 Islamic banks of the Gulf Cooperation Council region from 2000 to 2012, based on the availability of data. Data were obtained from the Bankscope database. For bank performance, the two most common measures, ROA and ROE, were alternatively used and for risk measures. Four types of financial risk were used, namely credit risk, liquidity risk, operational risk, and capital risk. Regression analysis indicate there exists a significant negative relationship between the Gulf Cooperation Council Islamic banks' performance, capital risk and operational risk. The results also confirm a significant negative relationship between Gulf Cooperation Council Islamic banks' performance. Furthermore, the results indicate that the most important type of risk is capital risk, followed by operational risk.JEL: G20, G21KEYWORDS: Bank Performance, Financial Risk, Gulf Cooperation Council Islamic BanksINTRODUCTIONIslamic banking has experienced significant growth worldwide during the last three decades. Currently, there are large number of Islamic banks and Islamic units spreading throughout the world. The UK, for example, represents one of the leading centers for Islamic banking globally. International giant banks such as HSBC (HSBC Amanah), Citi Bank (Citi Islamic), and Standard Chartered have established Islamic units. The Gulf Cooperation Council Countries (GCC) operate under dual banking systems: conventional and Islamic banking. 1n 2012, total assets of Islamic banking in the GCC region were 34% of assets of Islamic banks worldwide. Iran's Islamic banking assets were 42.7% of total global Islamic banking assets and Malaysia contributed 10.0% (Zawya, 2013) of the total. Islamic banking is gaining popularity after the 2007-2008 financial crisis. The Islamic banking industry has witnessed a radical change in terms of the number of banks, branches, Islamic units, and Islamic financial instruments. For some experts the main reason for the financial crisis was the collapse in credit supply (e.g., the collapse of Lehman Brothers in September 2008). In the search for solutions there has been interest in the model of interest-free banking used in the Islamic banking industry since Islamic law prohibits usury, the collection and payment of interest.The objective of this study is to examine the relationship between financial risk and performance of the GCC Islamic banks and the relative importance of the most common types of risk. As mentioned above, Islamic Banking has been growing significantly worldwide during the last three decades and has grown faster in the GCC region. In the UAE, for example, where the first Islamic bank (Dubai Islamic Bank) was established in 1975, there are now 8 Islamic banks with 283 branches constituting 34% of the total number of bank branches in the country. Total assets of Islamic banks have increased from AED 182.6 billion (about US$ 49.6 billion) in 2008 to AED 358 billion (about US$ 97.3 billion) in 2012. The proportion of UAE Islamic banks' assets increased from 14.9% of UAE banking sector's total assets in 2008 to 20% in 2012.The structure of the paper is as follows. In the first section, a literature review of the most recent studies is provided. The second section deals with the research questions and hypotheses, followed by an exposition of research methods and data collection. The fourth section is devoted to discussion of the empirical findings. In the final section a brief summary of the paper and conclusions concerning the main results are provided.LITERATURE REVIEWIn this section we summarize the main findings of selected empirical studies. To the best of the author's knowledge, there is no empirical study that deals with the same issues addressed in this paper, for GCC Islamic banks, or those in other areas of the world. …" @default.
