Purpose -- The study investigates the impact of the efficiency of Islamic banks on banking stability. Method -- A panel data analysis using the Least Square Dummy Variable Corrected (LSDVC) method is employed to examine the impact of efficiency on banking stability in Islamic banks. The study has a sample of 54 Islamic banks across eight countries from 2013 to 2021. Findings -- The findings reveal that the efficiency of Islamic banks has a positive and significant effect on banking stability. In addition, financial turmoil negatively and significantly affects the stability of Islamic banks but does not significantly affect institutional development. Additionally, financial turmoil can influence how effectively Islamic banks manage their businesses in response to banking stability. The outcomes are robust across various robustness methods. Implications -- The results imply that the efficiency of Islamic banks has a pivotal role in banking stability, considering the efficiency level. To ensure the stability of Islamic banks, practitioners and regulators of Islamic banks have to achieve and maintain the efficiency of Islamic banks by implementing the required policies and guidelines. Originality/Value -- Previous studies examining the impact of Islamic banks' efficiency on banking stability remain limited. The paper fills the research gap by examining how Islamic bank efficiency affects banking stability, considering the effects of financial turmoil and institutional development.

The outbreak has created an unprecedented crisis that influences macroeconomic variables. These circumstances are predicted to be contagious for banking performance. To understand the related influences, this study attempts to examine the asymmetric relationship between macroeconomic variables and non-performing loans/financing of the Indonesian banking industry before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (NARDL) is adopted based on the time-series data from 2005Q1 to 2021Q1. The study provides evidence that an asymmetric relationship between macroeconomic variables and the banks' non-performing loans/financing exists both before and during the pandemic. In addition, asymmetric relationships of macroeconomic variables on Islamic banks are more prominent before the pandemic even though it occurs inversely during the pandemic. As for policy implication, the financial authority needs to be prudent in implementing financial policies due to the presence of an asymmetric relationship between macroeconomic variables and the banks' non-performing loans/financing. Moreover, the authority must ensure that all financial policies will be effective to all types of banks regardless of conventional or Islamic banks. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Purpose ― This study aims to assess the home financing credit risk performed by Islamic banks in Indonesia. Methods ― A panel dynamic analysis is adopted to measure the bad loan performance before and during the Covid-19 pandemic. The observation period started from January 2016 to September 2020 with 1,881 observation periods of monthly panel data from the province level. Findings ― The study finds a difference in bad loan performance before and during the Covid-19 pandemic. Before this pandemic, inflation has a positive and significant influence on non-performing financing in real estate, rental business, and company service. However, during the Covid19 pandemic, a substantial and positive effect of inflation is found on the bad loan for personal flat and apartment ownership. On the other hand, a significant and negative impact of inflation is found on the bad home loan for personal business shop ownership. Implication ― This analysis could trigger the government to provide financial assistance for those affected by the Covid-19 crisis. In addition to that, an Islamic bank is also expected to give financing allowances for them by providing an option of debt restructuration and rescheduling. Originality ― This paper analyses the Islamic bank’s credit risk performance for home financing before and during the Covid-19 pandemic. This issue has not been presented in the literature to the best of our knowledge. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
