Abstract

This study aims to identify some issues facing the Sharia Supervisory Board (SSB) in Indonesia and find ways to solve them. Some cases were found to have obstructed SSB operations, resulting in SSB's failure to enjoy its privileges. What is interesting is that the legalization of many Sharia banking systems in Indonesian civil law didn’t produce optimal results that is the full commitment of Islamic banking activities to principles of Sharia. This study contributes to providing effective and applicable solutions in order to systematically improve the work of SSB. The researcher relies on the inductive and analytical approach to clarify and solve the problems by referring to heritage and contemporary būks. The research reached some conclusions and recommendations: 1- Making legal affiliation of the SSB refer to a higher official authority in-country to ensure independence. 2- The SSB must prove the urgency of their presence among customers and utilize technology to accelerate demonstrating of Sharia provisions for ongoing projects. 3- There is still a problem in appointing the members of SSB by the bank’s general assembly due to potential conflicts of interest. 4- SSB members can collect salaries and bonuses from Islamic banks in return for their efforts and carving out their times.
