Religiosity Performance of BMT Leaders and Its Implications to Sukuk Preference

Abstract

BMT has a strategic role in the marketing of State Sukuk since this institution is a party that has capital constraints for the development of its business activities.This study aimed to analyze the performance of BMT leaders' religiosity value and their implications for the preferences of State Sukuk. This study uses a quantitative descriptive approach with field survey methods. 22 BMT leaders become the research sample with the institutions scattered in regencies and cities in West Java. The measurement of the performance variable of religiosity and preference uses a Likert scale 5. The results show that the religiosity performance of BMT leaders in West Java is categorized as good. However, a good understanding of religious values does not instantly boost BMT leaders' preference for State Sukuk. Inadequate information on the operationalization mechanism of State Sukuk is one of the reasons for the low preference of BMT leaders for state Sukuk
