Abstract

Venture capital is a form of active investment through equity-based instruments. Venture capital financing is praised for its role in promoting growth while maintaining financial stability. From an Islamic point of view, such arrangements appear very close to the model of musharakah which Islamic banks are seeking, but many in reality failed to adopt. Venture capital is also well suited to Islamic countries because of its positive impact on growth and development. "رأس المال المخاطر" هو صورة لاستثمار نشط مبني على أدوات المشاركة في حقوق الملكية. ومما يذكر من مزاياه تشجيعه النمو مع حفظ الاستقرار المالي. ويبدو من وجهة إسلامية أنه قريب جدًا من نموذج المشاركة الذي تتوق إليه البنوك الإسلامية وإن لم يفلح أكثرها في تبنيه. و "رأس المال المخاطر" ملائم جدًا للبلاد الإسلامية لأثره الإيجابي على التنمية.
