Factors determining the performance of Islamic banking in Malaysia / Muhammad Adam Asyraf Mohd Asri

A primary goal of this study will be to gather data on Islamic banking in Malaysia. Economies and countries rely heavily on banks. Banks' ability to make a profit and operate efficiently is critical because it helps to keep the financial system stable and shields a country from adverse waves. Understanding the factors that influence Islamic banks' profitability is essential. This study's primary goal is to examine the factors that influence Islamic banking in Malaysia. Return on Asset (ROA), the most widely used metric, is used to examine the connection between Bank Size, Capitalization, GDP growth, and Inflation as they relate to bank profitability. Data for this study came from the bank's annual reports, Thomson Reuters, and the World Bank's databases. From 2011 to 2020, this study relies on data from six (6) Islamic banks listed on Bursa Malaysia's stock exchange. The collected data is examined using panel data in this study. As a result of the findings of each test, two variables have a significant relationship with the dependent variable while the other two are showing otherwise. The first two significant variables are bank-specific factors which are Bank Size and Capitalization. It was supported by S. Bony (2021), he found that bank-specific factors and macroeconomic factors are linked to the performance of the bank. This result is also supported by Mosharrof Hosen (2020) the findings of the standardized pooled ordinary least square (OLS) approach revealed that Bank Size and Capitalization have a significant positive impact on Islamic banks' Return on Assets. Meanwhile, the other two variables are macroeconomic factors which are GDP growth and Inflation which have shown an insignificant result. According to P RidhoSatria (2019), macroeconomic factors which are GDP growth and Inflation have an insignificant but positive link to the performance of the bank. As a result of the research, it has been determined that the variables studied are linked to bank performance.
