The impact of Sukuk on the insolvency risk of conventional and Islamic banks

Abstract: This paper investigates the impact of Sukuk market development on bank insolvency risk using a sample comprising 72 Islamic banks (IBs) and 145 conventional banks (CBs) spanning 15 countries over the 2003-2014 period. We measure bank insolvency risk using the z-score. Using the system-GMM estimator, we find that Sukuk market development adversely affects the insolvency risk of IBs, while that of the CBs remains unchanged. Moreover, our results point to a negative and significant effect of the size on the insol… Show more

“…If the internal funding were not available, the financial manager would try to seek other funding obtained from the external sources by issuing a debenture or stocks in a capital market (Raffestin, 2017;Najeeb et al, 2017). Meanwhile, deciding on using a specific funding source is one of the most important financial management (Honková, 2015;Reboredo & Naifar, 2017;Smaoui et al, 2020).…”

“…Sukuk-related studies in this domain are not diverse: stock price reaction to credit/sukuk rating changes or information content of sukuk issuance on abnormal return either in the crisis period or non-crisis period and sukuk rating impact on firm performance (see e.g. Ng & Ariff, 2019;Alam et al, 2013;Abd Rahim & Ahmad, 2016;Hassan et al, 2018;Khartabiel et al, 2020;Mohamed et al, 2017;Smaoui, Mimouni, & Temimi, 2019;Ab Hamid et al, 2014;Godlewski et al, 2010). Hence, the first hypothesis is as follows: H1: Sukuk ratings positively impact stock returns.…”

“…Furthermore, sukuk ratings are contingent on the specific characteristics of Islamic bonds (Azmat et al, 2014), along with macroeconomic and market conditions (Hassan et al, 2019). Besides, sukuk ratings are influenced by the different settings of crisis vs non-crisis period (Khartabiel et al, 2020), by the different absorption process levels of the received information from sukuk announcement (Mohamed et al, 2017), and by different insolvency risk levels and the size of issuing firms, including financial institutions (Islamic banks) (Smaoui et al, 2019).…”

“…Some researchers find that Sukuk issuance increases those variables (Haroon et al, 2019;Klein et al, 2017), while other researchers argue that Sukuk announcement reduces those variables (Bhuiyan et al, 2018;Hanefah & Sains, 2013). On the other hand, there are some researchers who discovered that Sukuk has no impact on those (Godlewski et al, 2013;Smaoui et al, 2019). Those different findings indicate that there is a gap of research from debatable impacts of Sukuk announcement of those variables, hence it is necessary to conduct the research about this issue, in particular in emerging context, Indonesia that is different compared to other developed countries.…”
