Summary: | Corporate governance issue emerged with the
birth of the corporations. Similarly, the need for Shari’ah
corporate governance is given attention by the regulators,
industrial players, Shari’ah advisors and researchers with the
bloom of Islamic finance. There are limited literature and
Shari’ah governance guidelines available for Islamic financial
institutions. The existing guidelines are general and they not as
specific as conventional guidelines. In addition, there is no Shari’ah governance guideline for Islamic capital market in Malaysia. Therefore, this paper aims to propose conceptual
framework for Shari’ah corporate governance with special
focus on Islamic capital market by integrating the conventional concepts of governance. We believe that the concept of Islamic accountability, independency, competency and transparency should be the basic foundation in developing the conceptual framework for Shari’ah corporate governance. |
