Abstract
The aim of this paper is to examine the Islamic Banking and Finance (IBF) industry in Singapore. Singapore is known to be a global financial hub with a resilient economy for capital flow. As a Muslim minority country, the Islamic finance industry in Singapore is established and fairly stable. This study analyses Singapore’s legal and regulatory framework of IBF to review the legal and regulatory framework which promotes the development of Islamic finance in Singapore. IBF in Singapore has been treated equally as the conventional banking under the same regulatory framework, with little guidelines on Shariah governance in the country. This paper concludes that the Singaporean government adopts a flexible approach in regulating IBF in Singapore, with little interventions on Shariah matters.
