With the worldwide growing interest in interest-free banking (also known as Islamic banking), we seek to explore the viability of such a system in Singapore.

Our research focuses on whether Singapore has sufficient demand for interest-free banking. Quantitative analysis has been conducted to determine the amounts of deposits required for interest-free units for institutions to be commercially viable. |
