This work analyzes central banking and monetary policy in countries that have adopted Islamic banking and finance (IBF) as well as conventional banking since the 1980s. Chapter-length country
case studies (Bahrain, Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey) outline the historical and contemporary context and discuss issues of inflation, price
stability, macroeconomic problems, and policy implications. The book is for students and researchers in Islamic banking and finance, especially those interested in macroeconomic and monetary
policies in Muslim-majority countries. The book is intended as a supplementary companion to the author’s reference text titled Central Banking and Monetary Policy in the Asia-Pacific; it can
also be used alone. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
