Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Banking, Stock Exchanges, Insurance, Accounting, grade: Sehr gut, University of Vienna (Universität Wien), course: Macro Economics and Finance, language: English, abstract: The literature discusses Islamic investment funds and hedge funds as isolated issues. At present not much work is known, comparing these two very prominent alternative investment forms. This thesis attempts to fill this gap by providing a first insight into both and also tries to answer the following question: Can Islamic investment funds catch up with hedge funds? For this, the thesis compares Islamic investment funds and hedge funds on the basis of different factors, trying to answer three sub questions: What are the advantages and disadvantages of each? Are there differences and/or similarities between the two? How can an investment portfolio including both be balanced? As will be seen throughout the thesis, Islamic investment funds provide a handfull of advantages over hedge funds, even enabling the former to outperform the latter. Hedge funds rely mainly on gaining advantage through market inefficiencies, hedging the market risk through short-term opportunities. This construction puts the fund manager into a high risk position with high profit potential. Despite investment restrictions under Islamic law, a fund manager is not prohibited from facilitating hedge funds by these restrictions. The main difference is that Islamic investments offer more risk control by cooperative arrangements. This characteristic enables an investor to cover the risk of hedge funds by investing in Islamic investment funds. Nevertheless, such differences raise the issue of whether it is sensible to invest solely in Islamic investment funds or hedge funds. [...]

This book was released on 2012-01-09 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unprecedented economic growth and wealth accumulation in predominately Muslim countries have prompted many financial institutions in the US and Europe to position their investment teams across the Middle East and Asia to be closer to the markets in which they invest, and to take advantage or asset-gathering opportunities. This growth has also encouraged an increasing number of western industrialised countries to adopt legislation that responds to the requirements of the Musli investment community. To be effective in these markets it is essential that professionals have an understanding of how Shari'a legal principles are applied in the financial sector. Failure to do so exposes them and their clients to potential financial, legal and reputational pitfalls. The Chancellor Guide to the Legal and Shari'a Aspects of Islamic Finance is the first professional reference to focus specifically on the legal dimension of Islamic Finance. The guide brings together nineteen Islamic Finance legal practitioners and advisers to provide a comprehensive yet practical legal perspective on the subject. Each contributor draws on several years' hands-on experience in Islamic Finance product development and advice to leading financial institutions to provide a real-world, contemporary assessment of the key legal issues in Islamic Finance. The guide's hands-on approach and accessible style make it required reading for everyone with a professional interest in Islamic Finance, be they lawyers, accountants, regulators, bankers or investors. It is also a unique reference for academic institutions worldwide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islamic Finance has experienced rapid growth in recent years, showing significant innovation and sophistication, and producing a broad range of investment products which are not limited to the complete replication of conventional fixed-income instruments, derivatives and fund structures. Islamic Finance represents an elemental departure from traditional interest-based and speculative practices, relying instead on real economic transactions, such as trade, investment based on profit sharing, and other solidary ways of doing business, and aims to incorporate Islamic principles, such as social justice, ecology and kindness, to create investment products and financial markets which are both ethical and sustainable. Products created according to Islamic principles have shown a low correlation to other market segments and are relatively independent even from market turbulences like the subprime crisis. Therefore, they have become increasingly popular with secular Muslims and non-Muslim investors, as highly useful alternative investments for the diversification of portfolios. In Islamic Capital Markets: Products and Strategies, international experts on Islamic Finance and Sharia'a Law focus on the most imminent issues surrounding the evolution of Islamic capital markets and the development of Sharia'a-compliant products. The book is separated into four parts, covering: General concepts and legal issues, including Rahn concepts in Saudi Arabia, the Sharia'a process in product development and the integration of social responsibility in financial communities; Global Islamic capital market trends, such as the evolution of Takaful products and the past, present and future of Islamic derivatives; National and regional experiences, from the world's largest Islamic financial market, Malaysia, to Islamic finance in other countries, including Germany, France and the US; Learning from Islamic finance after the global financial crisis; analysis of the risks and strengths of Islamic capital markets compared to the conventional system, financial engineering from an Islamic perspective, Sharia'a-compliant equity investments and Islamic microfinance. Islamic Capital Markets: Products and Strategies is the complete investors' guide to Islamic finance.

Book excerpt: Abstract : Prior to the coming into existence of Islamic finance, Islamic equity fund investment was almost non-existent in Malaysia. With the passage of enabling legislation in 1983, awareness and acceptance of Islamic finance as a competitive alternative to conventional finance emerged, as did interest in Islamic equity funds (IEFs) albeit very subdued compared to its conventional counterpart. Given that Islam constitutes the religious majority in Malaysia, expectations that the growth and development of IEFs are associated with individual religious norms, value orientations and ethical behaviour, has not been tested empirically in previous studies. One way of addressing this absence is by examining the investment behaviour of IEF participants. This is pursued by studying behaviour under conditions of competing alternatives in a different Malaysian economic setting. This strategy is triangulated from a number of perspectives: from observations in psychology focusing on how individual behaviour and motivations shape investment decisions; the influence of shariah ethical considerations; risk/return expectations; equity fund management and performance; and, from behaviour exhibited in current and expected asset/equity portfolio construction. Traditional investment theory is unable to explain how ethical investors behave the way they do often exhibiting behaviour inconsistent with choice optimisation and rational decision-making. Moreover, in an Islamic finance setting, prescriptive shariah parameters and non-financial attributes are perceived to impact investment behaviour in ways not fully understood. If individuals are assumed to behave rationally (as neoclassical theory suggests), then given ethical imposts, Islamic investors would consistently make sub-optimal and irrational decisions since choice is not fully exercised. Consequently, equity and asset portfolios will not be fully optimised between competing alternatives. Similar arguments are raised against conventional ethical investors on the basis that negatively screening out profitable equity stocks (through ethical concerns) result in portfolio under-performance (Schwartz, 2003). Does this argument hold for Islamic investors and IEFs as well? Research associated with conventional socially responsible investment (SRI) suggests the non-financial components of investors utility functions have much to do with investment behaviour the dynamic effect of which ultimately contributes in shaping the growth and direction of SRI funds themselves (Domini & Kinder, 1986). Such observations cannot be inferred about Islamic Equity Investment (IEI) since there is a paucity of research and very few studies in which the influence of individual behavioural attributes on investment has been adequately researched. Pollard and Samers (2007) argue this dearth in research has resulted in Islamic finance being 2under-theorised3. Moreover, as the literature review indicates, IEI research has been unidirectional it focuses almost exclusively at quantitative analysis of equity fund performance and risk/return comparative analysis. This research seeks to redress this gap in the literature.
