The Malaysian Islamic finance model is now one of the most advanced Islamic banking systems in the world. The goal of the Malaysian Islamic financial model is to operate in parallel with Malaysia’s conventional financial system. To achieve this, the Islamic financial system presents itself as a viable alternative to the more established, conventional system.<\/p> \n
What these two concepts really are?<\/h2> \n
Islamic personal financing has to be structured differently. This is because Islamic financial institutions are prohibited from making money through interest rates by lending money, There are various concepts, but most of them include the buying and selling of approved commodities and services following Islamic principles to make it Shariah-compliant.<\/p> \n
Islamic personal financing is structured with profit rates, over the conventional interest rate. This is because the Islamic loan is not set up the same way a personal loan is.<\/p> \n
An Islamic finance that works under the principles of Mudarabah is a form of business relationship: you provide the money, and the bank does business with it. As part of this relationship, a profit sharing ratio (PSR) is stipulated. Simply put, ( 95% of profits go to the bank, and 5% of the profits go to you).<\/p> \n
Unlike interest, which is promised in advance by the bank regardless of how much profit the bank earns. The profits you earned (according to the PSR) are divided by the original amount you invested, which shows the percentage of profit.<\/p> \n

In Conventional Financing, lenders lend to borrowers to make a profit from the interest charged on the principal amount. For property loans, borrowers pay an interest on the outstanding principal amount. Interest rates can be a fixed rate or based on a floating rate (e.g. Base Interest Rate (BLR),Kuala Lumpur Interbank Offer Rate (KLIBOR).<\/p> \n
Islamic Financing avoids interest-based transactions (Riba), and instead introduces the concept of buying something on the borrower\u2019s behalf, and selling it back to the borrower at profit. In place of interest, a profit rate is defined in the contract. Like Conventional Financing, profit rates can be a fixed rate, or based on a floating rate (Base Financing Rate or (BFR).<\/p> \nPros and cons between both types of financing<\/h2> \n
