Banking Governance, Performance and Risk-Taking: Conventional Banks vs Islamic Banks

by Faten Ben Bouheni (Author), Chantal Ammi (Author), Aldo Levy (Author)



Development of emerging countries is often done through non-conventional finance. The prohibition of interest and some other impediments require understanding of conventional finance and Islamic finance. Both are looking for ethical finance which is socially responsible. This book explains the features of both conventional and Islamic banking including the current international context; it also provides a comparative view of banking governance, performance and risk-taking by both.
