Liquidity management is an important aspect in maintaining the operational stability of Islamic banking. Inadequate liquidity management can affect a bank’s ability to fulfill its short-term obligations and reduce public trust in banking institutions. This study aims to examine the basic concepts of liquidity management, liquidity management practices, and the various challenges faced by Islamic banks in maintaining financial stability. The study employed a qualitative method using a literature review approach through the examination of various sources, including books, scientific journals, and research articles relevant to the topic. The collected data were analyzed descriptively to obtain a systematic understanding of liquidity management in Islamic banking. The findings indicate that liquidity management in Islamic banks is carried out through asset and liability management, fund collection, financing distribution, and the implementation of GAP management. In addition, Islamic banking faces several challenges, including the limited availability of Islamic money market instruments, imbalance between assets and liabilities, risks of massive customer withdrawals, and changes in economic conditions and regulations. Therefore, adaptive liquidity management strategies based on prudential principles are required to maintain operational stability and ensure the sustainability of Islamic banking institutions.

This study presents a comprehensive evaluation of three main Islamic monetary instruments Sukuk, the Islamic Interbank Money Market (PUAS), and Sharia Repo to strengthen the resilience and stability of Indonesia’s Islamic financial system. Using a descriptive literature review method, this study analyzes relevant academic sources, regulatory frameworks, and policy reports. Sukuk is examined as an asset-based instrument that plays a crucial role in medium- to long-term financing and fiscal management. PUAS is analyzed as a mechanism for short-term liquidity management among Islamic banks based on mudharabah and wakalah contracts. Meanwhile, Sharia Repo is evaluated through the sale and repurchase mechanism of Sharia State Securities (SBSN) to support liquidity stability in Islamic banking. The findings reveal strong synergy among these instruments in managing excess liquidity, controlling inflation, and strengthening the transmission of Bank Indonesia’s monetary policy in compliance with Sharia principles. This study recommends enhancing public literacy, strengthening innovative regulatory frameworks, and developing Islamic financial infrastructure to promote inclusive and sustainable growth in Indonesia’s Islamic financial sector.

The rapid development of Islamic banking in Indonesia faces significant challenges in maintaining liquidity and profitability amidst dynamic capital market conditions. The urgency of this study arises from the need to examine whether traditional financial ratios, such as the Financing to Deposit Ratio (FDR) and Return on Equity (ROE), play a decisive role in influencing investment decisions, which are proxied by the Price to Earning Ratio (PER). The main objective of this research is to empirically test the effect of liquidity and profitability, both partially and simultaneously, on investment decisions in Islamic commercial banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2021–2025 period. This study adopts an associative design with a quantitative approach, utilizing secondary data from financial reports obtained from the IDX, and analyzed using multiple linear regression on 68 observation samples. The findings reveal that neither liquidity nor profitability significantly influence investment decisions, either partially or simultaneously. These results suggest that investors in the Islamic banking sector tend to prioritize non-financial factors such as sharia compliance, governance, macroeconomic conditions, and ESG trends, rather than conventional financial indicators. In conclusion, this research extends the understanding of the limitations of Signaling Theory in the sharia context and recommends the development of a more holistic investment evaluation model. Future studies are encouraged to incorporate non-financial variables for a more comprehensive analysis.

This study aims to examine the innovation of rahn contract products in the development of gold pawn services in Islamic banking in Indonesia. Akad rahn is a sharia-based short-term financing instrument that provides liquidity solutions for the community without involving elements of riba, gharar, and maisir. As the need for fast, secure, and sharia-compliant financial services increases, innovation in rahn products is of strategic urgency. This research uses a qualitative descriptive approach with a literature study of literature, reports of Islamic financial institutions, and related regulations. The results of the study show that rahn product innovation is carried out through three main aspects: (1) the development of the form of contract, such as the combination of rahn with ijarah or mudharabah; (2) the use of digital technologies such as e-KYC and AI to accelerate services; and (3) the expansion of socio-economic benefits, especially for MSMEs. The study also found that the increase in gold prices has also encouraged the increase in the use of gold pawns as an alternative financial solution. Therefore, Islamic banking needs to continue to develop gold pawn services based on rahn contracts to remain competitive, inclusive, and sharia-compliant.

The objective of this study is to examine and compare the financial performance of Islamic banks and conventional banks in Indonesia during the 2019–2023 period. This research is motivated by the rapid growth of the Islamic banking industry; however, its market share remains relatively small compared to conventional banks. The study evaluates various financial ratio indicators, including Return on Assets (ROA), Net Interest Margin (NIM), Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR), BOPO, Non-Performing Loans (NPL), and Non-Performing Financing (NPF), using a quantitative approach and comparative method. Data were collected from the annual financial reports of several major banks selected through purposive sampling. The results of the analysis indicate that conventional banks generally outperform in terms of profitability and operational efficiency, as reflected in the ROA and BOPO ratios. On the other hand, Islamic banks demonstrate more stable financing quality and liquidity, as indicated by relatively stable NPF and FDR ratios. These performance differences stem from the distinct operational principles of the two banking systems: interest-based operations for conventional banks and profit-sharing principles for Islamic banks. The study concludes that a more comprehensive evaluation method, integrating both sharia compliance and financial elements, is essential to provide a fair and accurate assessment of bank performance. The findings are expected to be valuable for regulators, academics, and industry practitioners in formulating policies that support a more inclusive and sustainable banking system.

The liquidation of a subsidiary in the banking sector is a strategic step with a significant impact on the financial performance, reputation, and sustainability of the parent company. This study aims to analyze the factors that drive liquidation, both internal such as financial performance, mismanagement, and legal compliance, as well as external such as market changes, natural disasters, and globalization pressures. Data were collected through academic literature review using qualitative approaches and data triangulation to improve the reliability of the results. The results of the study show that poor liquidity management, both due to internal and external factors, is the main cause of liquidation. The impact on the reputation of the parent company is dualistic: on the one hand it increases operational efficiency, but on the other hand it risks creating negative perceptions, such as management failures or employee losses. Therefore, companies must strengthen financial management, utilize technology to monitor cash flow in real-time, and develop flexible risk policies. Transparent communication with stakeholders is also important to minimize reputational impact. This study shows that effective liquidity management supports operational efficiency and increases public confidence, customers, and regulators, relevant for both Islamic and conventional banking in dealing with market dynamics.

This article analyzes the role of Islamic banks in supporting monetary policy in Indonesia and its impact on national economic stability. Using library research methods, this research examines relevant literature regarding the development of the sharia banking sector and sharia-based monetary instruments. The research results show that Islamic banks make a significant contribution to stabilizing inflation, increasing financial access, and managing liquidity through instruments such as the Bank Indonesia Sharia Certificate (SBIS) and the sharia interbank money market. In addition, Islamic banks play a role in providing financing for micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), which is important for inclusive economic growth. Nevertheless, challenges such as low sharia financial literacy and limited policy instruments need to be overcome to maximize the contribution of sharia banks to monetary policy. This research is expected to provide in-depth insight into the potential and challenges faced by Islamic banks in supporting the stability of the Indonesian economy.

Competition in the banking industry is increasingly rapid at this time requiring each bank to have a stable healthy financial condition to avoid difficult financial conditions (financial distress). The purpose of this study was to determine how the influence of the Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR), Financing to Deposit Ratio (FDR), and Return on Equity (ROE) on the possibility of financial distress in Sharia Rural Banks registered with the Financial Services Authority in 2020-2023. The type of research used is descriptive quantitative research with the data source used is secondary data obtained from the financial statements of each Sharia Rural Bank. The results of this study found that the variables CAR, FDR, and ROE partially and simultaneously had a positive and significant effect on financial distress. The three independent variables together have an influence of 84.8% on the dependent variable, while the remaining 15.2% is influenced by other variables outside this study.

The purpose of this study is to assess the comparative financial performance between conventional and Islamic banks in Indonesia by considering factors such as profitability, liquidity, operational efficiency, and credit risk. Using a qualitative approach and literature review method from various credible sources, the results show that conventional banks tend to use ROA, ROE, CIR, and NIM as the main profitability indicators; Islamic banks also use NPF and FDR. CAR and NIM affect Islamic banks' profitability positively against ROA, while BOPO affects conventional banks' ROA negatively. In terms of liquidity, Islamic banks have an advantage due to the yield principle applied. This is indicated by the current ratio, quick ratio, money ratio, and loan-to-deposit ratio, which show their ability to meet short-term obligations better compared to conventional banks. BOPO shows the operational efficiency of Islamic banks thanks to the principles of fairness and sustainability, while conventional banks excel in revenue management from assets and investor capital. The profit-sharing system in Islamic banks lowers credit risk compared to conventional banks. Although the operating principles of the two types of banking are different, this study found that each type of banking exhibits strengths and weaknesses in terms of profitability, liquidity, efficiency, and credit risk. It is hoped that these results will aid the growth of the Indonesian banking industry and help bank management and relevant stakeholders make informed decisions.

Liquidity management is a very complex problem in bank operations. The main cause of bank bankruptcy, both large and small, is not due to failure in financing which results in losses, but rather due to the inability of banks to manage liquidity. This article discusses liquidity management by utilizing the Bank Indonesia Sharia System (SBIS) and PUAS transactions. However, that the two methods have not fully resolved the actual problems faced by Islamic banking in allocating unused funds due to excess liquidity. This study was conducted through a literature search covering various solutions and alternatives to overcome the obstacles faced by Islamic banking in managing its liquidity. To support this study, secondary data was used obtained from Islamic Banking Statistics and the Financial Services Authority. Based on this study, it means that the central bank needs to develop the existing instruments in the PUAS provided by Bank Indonesia as the monetary authority. It is hoped that the liquidity problems faced by Islamic banking can be overcome more effectively.
