Abstract

It is essential that interest-free banks strive to move away from the currently adopted capital / period based calculation mechanism for determining its own profit share, to an objective method aimed at determining the profit sharing ratio in the participatory venture as a whole. Ideally, a profit sharing ratio could be fixed for an individual venture considering relevant aspects that are of importance to each partner, based on independent negotiation. This would result in a fair share of the profit accruing to the bank, in proportion, at least partially, to the amount of funds invested and any expertise extended, while the client, too, secures a fair return for his input in the form of capital or labour. Although there could be no bar to using the rate of return / period method for purposes of analysis and comparison, adopting it as the very basis of profit share calculation does not seem to be reflective of the spirit of equity participation.
