Debt Based Contract in Conventional Bank

Recall conventional bank balance sheet.

  • In the liability side, bank collects public fund through debt based contract.
  • Interest-bearing loan
    • Fixed obligations
    • Delink between performance of the project (or assets) and payoffs of the debt/loan.
  • In the asset side, bank channel its financing employing debt-based contract as well.
  • Here again, the entrepreneur has to pay a fix amount of money (or sometimes refer to the interest rate) regardless of its underlying business performance.
  • Therefore, delink between asset and liability side of the bank.
  • Bank has the burden of all kind of risk faced by the asset side:
    • Risks: (i) market; (ii) liquidity; (iii) credit; (iv) operational; (v) idiosyncratic.

Debt Based Contract in Conventional Bank

In the extreme case:

  • The majority of loan are not collected 🡪 High Non-Performing Loan (NPL)
  • Public needs more liquidity 🡪 probability of bank cannot fulfil the liquidity (recall fractional reserve) 🡪 lack of trust towards banking industry.
  • Higher probability of default.
  • Public needs insurance: Indonesia Deposit Insurance Corporation (or LPS) was thus established to ensure public safety.
  • Bail out for the too big to fail or too many to fail banks. Ex: BLBI, Bank Century.

Debt Based Contract in Conventional Bank

Risk-Shifting

Wahyu Jatmiko | Funding product of Islamic bank I

The equity goes underwater when the value of the asset (Vt) is lower than the debt obligation (Qt), as observed in the interval (t1, t2). This leads the borrower to default by transferring the downside risk of the asset to the financier. Source: Jatmiko et al. (2021).

Debt Based Contract in Conventional Bank

Underinvestment

Wahyu Jatmiko | Funding product of Islamic bank I

Underinvestment occurs in Period 3 when the borrower's Net Operating Income (NOIt) is lower than its Debt Obligations (DO). Here, the borrower rejects profitable (i.e., the positive net present value - NPV) projects as the additional wealth mainly accrues the financier. Source: Jatmiko et al. (2021)

Debt Based Contract in Conventional Bank

Financial fragility leads to financial crisis.

  • Debt-based banking system is by structure prone to crisis.
  • Recall 1997-1998 Asian Crisis and 2008 Global Financial Crisis

Equity Based Contract in Islamic Bank

  • Islamic banking is not a mere interest free bank.
  • Its concept is based on the equity based contract.
  • In the right hand side of the balance sheet, Islamic bank collects deposit from public through profit-and-loss sharing (Mudharaba or musharaka).
  • Hence, the depositor acts as an investor investing through Islamic bank.

Equity Based Contract in Islamic Bank

  • In the left hand side of the BS, Islamic bank finances public through profit-and-loss sharing contract as well. Therefore, the debtor of IB is actually a partner of the bank.
  • This two-tier equity based contract by definition prevents interest.
  • Profit sharing is priced based upon the performance of underlying transaction (ex post), not the predetermined rate (ex-ante) like interest benchmark.
  • No single benchmark of interest rate 🡪 every sector has different performance 🡪 different return 🡪 different payoffs 🡪 more just.

  • Far more stable than conventional counterparts.
  • Far more just than conventional banking
  • More efficient intermediaries function

However, this will only hold if:

  • Allowed by supportive institutional framework

Wadiah

Wadiah refers to safekeeping, custody, deposit and trust.

In Islamic banking, it refers to the deposit of funds or assets by a person. In this arrangement, the depositor deposits his funds or assets with the bank for safekeeping and in most of the agreements the bank charges a fee for the safe custody of the depositor’s funds.

There are two basic types of wadiah:

  • Wadiah yad amanah refers to property is deposited on the basis of trust (guarantee safe custody).
  • Wadiah yad Dhamanah refers to savings with guarantee or safe-keeping.
