This course is designed to offer students of financial management a well rounded perspective of the fundamentals of Islamic Finance and Banking. The growing global importance of Islamic financial structures and the implications for financial management make it essential that any learner interested in financial management is conversant with the fundamentals of this area of finance and banking. The module will cover all aspects associated with Islamic Finance and Banking from the prohibitions in taking or receiving interest through the prohibitions in masir and gharar to Islamic banking fees and charges. The module will explore how Islamic Banking and Finance principles have evolved into structures. Issues associated with products and services will be investigated and developed. The module will also address regulatory frameworks and applications of Sharia law to all aspects of banking and finance. This unit is linked to the unit Applied Islamic Finance and Banking so that students conversant with all the principles and structures behind Islamic Banking and Finance can be empowered to engage in application

IMF survey, 2010 has stated that Islamic banks have on an average shown stronger resilience to the recent global financial crisis and meltdown. Economists are of the view that due to the robust growth of Islamic banks during the crisis periods, they are highly likely to take a lead to grow the market share in the future.

For the purposes of this module the term Islamic Finance is juxtaposed against what might be described as secular banking but which is here termed 'conventional banking' on the basis that Islamic Finance has emerged as a system relatively more recently.
