Summary

Introduction

The current development of Islamic banking performance has not met the expectation of various stakeholders. The financial performance of sharia banking has decreased in recent years. This is due to the increasing number of non-performing loan over the last three years. Based on the data from OJK ( Financial Services Authority) by August 2020 (OJK, 2020) the number of non-performing financing in 2018 was 6.6 trillion rupiahs, increased from 7.2 trillion rupiahs in 2019 to 7.7 trillion rupiahs in July 2020. The decline in sharia banking performance as evidenced by the large number of non-performing financing is caused by the many cases of deviation/ fraud committed by managers and employees at sharia banking institutions such as cases of fictitious financing worth 1.1 trillion rupiahs by authorized officials at Bank Syariah Mandiri (Saiman, 2018, Bank Syariah Mandiri Allegedly Provides Fictitious Financing of 1.1 Trillion rupiahs, via http://cnnindonesia.com [6/1/19, 16.50 wib). In 2019, there was a case of embezzlement of customer funds as much as 35 billion rupiahs at Bank Syariah Mandiri (MAKI, 2019, the Corruption Case of Bank Syariah Mandiri Simalungun Street in Place, via http://fin.co.id [5/11] /19, 10.00 am)
