An essential feature of Islamic banking is the prohibition of interest (“riba”). The interest-free Islamic banking is based on the concept of profit-and-loss sharing, where the lender shares losses with the borrower.

Many conventional banks nowadays have Islamic windows or separate branches that deal with Islamic financial products. The fact that Islamic banks have been around for the last decades and continue to prosper is a proof of the viability of Islamic finance in a world dominated by interest-based banking.

An essential feature of Islamic banking is the prohibition of interest (“riba”). The interest-free Islamic banking is based on the concept of profit-and-loss sharing, where the lender shares losses with the borrower. The question is whether this system can be relevant in the world of revolutionary, technology-driven global finance. Islamic banks mushroomed across the world. Many conventional banks nowadays have Islamic windows or separate branches that deal with Islamic financial products. The fact that Islamic banks have been around for the last decades and continue to prosper is a proof of the viability of Islamic finance in a world dominated by interest-based banking.

Retail banking is becoming more volatile and techno-savvy. Individual consumers are vying for extra comfort with no overheads. Retail banking clients are offered a wide range of personal banking services, including mushrooming flexi-timed branches with real-time saving facilities, checking accounts and bill-paying services. Debit and credit cards with pin and microchips are also easily available, in addition to more flexible mortgages and personal loans. Highly networked ATMs, one-click-away online banking services, and 24/7 call support and IVRs are making it all incredibly vibrant.

 

Retail banking is changing at an alarming rate, where an experienced, scalable and reachable technology partner is required to produce a registered brand in retail banking.

Financial Institutions face many challenges in converting to Islamic banking operations. A well-established independent Sharia’h board, staff reorientation and process reengineering are foremost among the many challenges faced by banks in this process.

 

Islamic banking may differ from conventional banking in many respects, but its technological requirements are no different. ITS enables business conversion from conventional to Islamic banking in the form of increasing market share, growth rate, the provision of superior service quality, a consistent and well-designed Islamic product, with a lower cost infrastructure and total cost of ownership.

 

ITS has a solid record in helping banks to convert to Islamic banking operations by providing technological solutions, reengineering processes and products, performing data transformation and staff reorientation in a timely manner.
