Diploma Thesis from the year 2004 in the subject Economics -
Finance, grade: 1,3, RWTH Aachen University (International
technical and economical Cooperation), language: English, comment:
The here presented study was conducted in cooperation with Deutsche
Gesellschaft fur Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), the former
German Technical Cooperation (GTZ). Being written in 2004, it is
the first study of its kind in analysing the potential of
implementing Islamic financial products into the structure of
microfinance. Today, the author is working with GIZ, pushing the
development of Islamic Microfinance with international stakeholders
(such as CGAP, IFSB, and others) all over the world ..., abstract:
The literature discussing microfinance topics like sustainability,
outreach and improvement of methods as well as the role of the
governments in terms of interference, supervision and regulation is
getting more differentiated and substantiated. Despite this
increasing interest, one aspect of microfinance has been largely
neglected both scientifically and in its application: Islamic
Microfinance. In this paper I will discuss, if the principles of
the Shari'ah (the Islamic law) are not somewhat compatible with the
needs and obstacles of microfinance, where stewardship is to be
shared and trust crucial. Further, I will discuss in detail if the
prohibition of Riba is a serious, insolvable obstacle and if it is
really more expensive for microfinance institutes to provide
Muslims with financial services. By comparing traditional
instruments of microfinance with new, transferred instruments
borrowed from Islamic banking, I will try to explain - on the bases
of the Islamic culture - why people are surprised about the neglect
of Islamic Microfinance. The hypotheses are as follows The
implementation of Islamic financial products causes too high risks
for microfinance institutes. The restriction of involving 'risk' in
financial contracts for both parties by the Islam is binding
