SHARI’A banks and products are flourishing in Indonesia. Until last August there were a total of 135 institutions involved in Shari’a banking. The number keeps increasing, not just because of newcomers BCA and Lippo Bank, but also because there are 10 banks queuing up to apply for licenses, both for Shari’a banks and Shari’a business units.

Business-wise, Shari’abanking must be able to offer more benefits than conventional systems. Tempo reports on the prospects for the industry.
