Appendix II - Consumer Banking Opportunities and Challenges for Islamic Banks § According to the 2005 -06 World Islamic Banking Conference (WIBC) Competitiveness report authored by Mc. Kinsey and Company, § “Consumer banking will be the main source of steady profits. Capturing the consumer banking opportunity and appealing to a broader consumer base is key for Islamic Banks. So far Islamic banks have managed to capture customers who have a strong preference for Sharia compliant products. § Going forward, they will have to broaden their appeal to customers who are interested in Sharia compliant products but are not ready to sacrifice returns, service or convenience. § To do so, Islamic banks need to improve their service levels, network convenience and staff knowledge while developing critical enablers 31 (i. e. operations, risk management and people management)”.

Consumer Banking Opportunities and Challenges for Islamic Banks The report findings include: § “Successfully delivering against customers’ expectations requires a complete rethink of the bank’s approach § Islamic banks will strongly need to improve their quality of service and distribution network § Islamic product offering presents major gaps and customers want to see some of these gaps closed § Customers would like to see an improvement in price/returns of banking products” 32

Consumer Banking Opportunities and Challenges for Islamic Banks § According to the WIBC Competitiveness report “Islamic banks will need to make substantial efforts to meet expectations. To capture the growth thrust in Consumer banking, Islamic banks will have to: § Focus the offering and develop wider product range § Expand network and use branch channels § Step up service quality and knowledge § Ensure competitive pricing” 33
